Currently, system properties are passed via the environment variable ANDROID_PROPERTY_WORKSPACE and a file descriptor passed from parent to child. This is insecure for setuid executables, as the environment variable can be changed by the caller. Make the /dev/__properties__ file accessible, so an app can get properties directly from the file, rather than relying on environment variables. Preserve the environment variable for compatibility with pre-existing apps. Bug: 8045561 Change-Id: If81e2b705eca43ddd8b491871aceff59c0e00387 |

The system/ directory is intended for pieces of the world that are the core of the embedded linux platform at the heart of Android. These essential bits are required for basic booting, operation, and debugging. They should not depend on libraries outside of system/... (some of them do currently -- they need to be updated or changed) and they should not be required for the simulator build. The license for all these pieces should be clean (Apache2, BSD, or MIT). Currently system/bluetooth/... and system/extra/... have some pieces with GPL/LGPL licensed code. Assorted Issues: - pppd depends on libutils for logging - pppd depends on libcrypt/libcrypto - init, linker, debuggerd, toolbox, usbd depend on libcutils - should probably rename bionic to libc
