It's a security best practice to carry entropy across reboots. (see "man 4 random"). Currently, entropy saving and mixing occur in the system_server, via the EntropyMixer code. Unfortunately, the EntropyMixer code runs fairly late in the boot process, which means early boot doesn't have high quality entropy. This has caused security problems in the past. Load entropy data as soon as we can in the early boot process, so that we can get /dev/random / /dev/urandom into a "random" state earlier.

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
