In Android 4.3 the run-as binary no longer has the SUID/SGID bits
set. Instead, it requires to be installed with setuid and setgid
file-based capabilities. As a result of the above two changes, the
binary no longer executes as root when invoked by the "shell" user
but can still change its UID/GID to that of the target package.
Unfortunately, run-as attempts to chdir into the target package's
data directory before changing its effective UID/GID. As a result,
when run-as is invoked by the "shell" user, the chdir operation
fails.
The fix is for run-as to chdir after changing the effective UID/GID
to those of the target package.

to libselinux to switch to the proper app security
context before running the shell.

Typical usage is 'run-as <package-name> <command>' to run <command>
in the data directory, and the user id, of <package-name> if, and only
if <package-name> is the name of an installed and debuggable application.
This relies on the /data/system/packages.list file generated by the
PackageManager service.
BEWARE: This is intended to be available on production devices !
