This is part of the multi-project commit to move the filter-framework
from system/media/mca to frameworks/base/media/mca.
Note that the filter-framework will soon be replaced with a refactored
version currently under API review (also to go under frameworks/base).
This move is done now to unblock the PDK efforts.

Make the drm server run as UID=drm, GID=drm. This ensures that
any files created by the drmserver app do not have GID=system.

Android developers should never place files in /data/local/tmp.
Files or directories in /data/local/tmp can be minipulated by the
shell user.
Android developers should never create world-writable files
or directories. This is a common source of security vulnerabilities.

The keystore service needs to access hardware crypto devices to
fulfill its function on devices with hardware crypto. This role
was assigned to the (now misnamed) drmrpc group.

This removes the hardcoding of the file import in init and instead
allows the init.rc file to fully control what is loaded.

Set dmesg_restrict to 1 to help limit inadvertent information leaks
from the kernel to non-privileged programs. Root and programs with
CAP_SYSLOG will continue to have access to dmesg output.
See "dmesg_restrict" in Documentation/sysctl/kernel.txt from the
Linux kernel source code.

Otherwise, ueventd's oom_adj value would have been 0 and it could
easily get killed early during low memory events

To make writing kernel exploits harder, set /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict
to "2". This prohibits users from accessing kernel symbols via /proc/kallsyms

Add log group to ril-daemon service. rild is the best place to
know the issue on the modem in many time. It would be helpful
if rild alone can capture the snapshot of logcat buffers at
the moment of problem.

The qemu-props program is launched at boot to read a series of
system property assignments from the emulator and apply them.
This is necessary to deal with the dynamic nature of the emulated
platform (e.g. the screen density which depends on the skin and
cannot be hard-coded in the platform image).
This patch ensures that qemu-props is started before any other
service that may read one of these properties (e.g. surface flinger).
This is done by encapsulating the program into a 'core' service.
Core services are all stared before regular ones.
Before the patch, qemu-props was started manually inside a script
that is called from a late emulator-specific boot service
(goldfish-setup).
The problem was that sometimes qemu-props was run too late.
This resulted in random flakiness, especially when running
on a low-end host machine.
Fix for bug 2161189 (and probably a few others)

The netfilter xt_qtaguid module uses a misc dev so that processes
that use the module can be tracked.
Every process that does socket tagging must open that dev.

Introduces a 'charger' section that is processed when androidboot.mode
supplied on the kernel commandline is "charger".
In this mode, sections such as fs, post-fs, etc are skipped. Only the
'early-init' and 'init' sections of the init rc files are processed before
processing the 'charger' section.

The mediaserver needs to do communication on behalf of other apps
(browser, ...).
It needs to be able to tag sockets. The kernel will check for net_bw_acct
group membership.

Racoon still needs it after dropping root privilege, or pure IPSec VPN
will fail. Mtpd works without it because net_raw implies inet. However
it would be better to set all of them clearly without the assumption.
