这个阶段搞了很多和Android文件权限相关的问题，虽然一知半解，但也算是对Android权限机制有一些自己的理解。遂将这些内容整理出来。因为权限这部分涉及到的内容很多，故将知识分为几块内容分别去整理。目前能想到的概要如下：
- Android 权限底层实现原理概述
- Android uid，gid的生成与权限机制的联系
- Android packageManagerService与权限的千丝万缕（源码解析）
- Android 从recovery模式下的OTA升级理解权限
- Android ROOT 原理
- Android 签名
- Android 权限大杀器 — Selinux的策略
这是第一篇。2，3，4已经有一些草稿了，但离发出来还有一些时间。5，6，7还在规划中。可以关注新弄的公众号softard，后面比较完善的文章都会在这个号上及时更新。
这里再推荐一本书
0001 Overview
Linux File Permission
众所周知，Android的内核是linux的内核。对于linux来说，系统的一切都是文件。同时，linux为文件系统设计了一套完善的权限机制。下面简单提一下linux文件权限的核心：
比如在Android手机adb shell下查看一个目录
# ls -ld data/data/
drwxrwx--x 113 system system 4096 1970-01-01 15:08 data/data/
其中，drwxrwx--x这10位代表文件权限，第一位文件类型可以忽略（这里类型是文件夹），后面每三位代表文件拥有的权限，包括rwx（可读，可写，可执行）。system system表示文件属于system用户和属于system组。
翻译过来是，system用户对该文件拥有读写执行权限，system组对该文件拥有读写执行权限，其他用户对该文件拥有执行权限。简单来说就是771权限。
Android Permission
Permission权限是Android系统定义的一套权限机制，用于控制APP访问某个硬件设备或某个Android系统的组件。
举两个常见的例子：
- 如果你的App想要访问存储卡，你需要在你的AndroidManifest文件中使用对应的permission用于向系统请求权限 。
- 你可以给你的Activity组件加个自定义的访问权限，这样任何想启动该Activity的程序必须在它的AndroidManifest中进行权限的请求。见Android自定义权限。
那么为什么你在AndroidManifest文件请求storage权限你就可以访问设备文件？linux文件属性的权限和Permission到底是怎么联系起来的呢？下面我们来具体来讲。
0010 packages.list & packages.xml
Android开机阶段会扫描所有App，从Manifest文件中把App信息和权限存到packages.xml和packages.list文件中，具体的处理过程会在后面第三篇去分析。
因为文件包含所有已安装应用的信息，所以我们尝试安装一个App（com.softard.test），并且查看其信息：
packages.list
com.softard.test 10052 1 /data/user/0/com.softard.test default none
这里10052是uid，至于其怎么生成的后面第二篇再详谈。
packages.xml
<package name="com.softard.test" codePath="/data/app/com.softard.test-1" nativeLibraryPath="/data/app/com.softard.test-1/lib" publicFlags="944291654" privateFlags="0" ft="8bbd70" it="89023c" ut="8bc04d" version="1" userId="10052">
<sigs count="1">
<cert index="10" key="308..../>
</sigs>
<proper-signing-keyset identifier="11" />
</package>
然后对App做个修改，将其改成系统App并签名放到system/app/Test下，再看这两个文件：
com.softard.test 1000 0 /data/user/0/com.softard.test platform 3009,3002,1023,1015,3003,3001,1021,1000,2002,2950,1010,1007
看到uid变成了1000，selinux从default变成platform，权限组从none变成3009,3002,1023,1015,3003,3001,1021,1000,2002,2950,1010,1007。而且应用一下子增加了一堆权限：
<package name="com.softard.test" codePath="/system/app/Test" nativeLibraryPath="/system/app/Test/lib" primaryCpuAbi="armeabi-v7a" publicFlags="944291397" privateFlags="0" ft="1683b80c790" it="1683b80c790" ut="1683b80c790" version="1" sharedUserId="1000" isOrphaned="true">

所以问题来了，改成系统应用后uid为什么变成1000？后面代表权限组的一串数字又都是什么？

android_filesystem_config.h
在Android中，所有权限的定义都在：system/core/include/private/android_filesystem_config.h
在这个头文件中定义了Android系统的一些用户，包含root用户，system用户，shell用户所对应的值等等。

从头文件定义，就知道每个权限组都是由一串数字代表的。除了数字，该文件还定义了一个结构体数组，映射数字对应的字符串：
static const struct android_id_info android_ids[] = {
{ "root", AID_ROOT, },

{ "wakelock", AID_WAKELOCK, },
{ "everybody", AID_EVERYBODY, },
{ "misc", AID_MISC, },
{ "nobody", AID_NOBODY, },
};
好了，了解这个文件我们再来看我们应用的信息：
com.softard.test 1000 0 /data/user/0/com.softard.test platform 3009,3002,1023,1015,3003,3001,1021,1000,2002,1010,1007
我们把数字对应的信息截取下来：
#define AID_SYSTEM 1000 "system" /* system server */
#define AID_LOG 1007 "log" /* log devices */
#define AID_WIFI 1010 "wifi" /* wifi subsystem */
#define AID_SDCARD_RW 1015 "sdcard_rw" /* external storage write access */
#define AID_GPS 1021 "gps" /* GPS daemon */
#define AID_MEDIA_RW 1023 "media_rw" /* internal media storage write access */
#define AID_DIAG 2002 "diag" /* access to diagnostic resources */
#define AID_NET_BT_ADMIN 3001 "net_bt_admin"/* bluetooth: create any socket */
#define AID_NET_BT 3002 "net_bt" /* bluetooth: create sco, rfcomm or l2cap sockets */
#define AID_INET 3003 "inet" /* can create AF_INET and AF_INET6 sockets */
#define AID_READPROC 3009 "readproc" /* Allow /proc read access */
所以，当我指定应用为系统应用时，就将uid指定为了1000。并且拥有了各种属于系统的权限组。
那么，指定系统应用后是怎么获得这一系列的gid呢？这一块源码流程很多，放到后面集中分析。
好了，现在我们了解system/core/include/private/android_filesystem_config.h文件定义以后，其实就前进了一大步。注意一下代码所在源码位置，位于system/core下，其实它已经是Android内核部分了，所以后面涉及到权限内容，都会导入这个头文件。
现在来看一段源码再来熟悉一下这部分内容：
FileUtils.setPermissions(fstr.getFD(), 0640, SYSTEM_UID, PACKAGE_INFO_GID);
这是位于frameworks/base/services/core/java/com/android/server/pm/Settings.java的一段代码，功能就是创建packages.list文件。从函数名称和参数可以知道，它是给文件添加权限的，通过这段代码可以推测出：它给packages.list文件赋予了0640的权限，权限隶属于system，权限组为package_info。
然后我们进入系统看一看是不是这样：
/data/system # ls -l packages.list
-rw-r----- 1 system package_info 13627 1970-01-01 11:27 packages.list
有没有发现原来Android底层权限其实也不是很难理解嘛？
这时，又有一个问题了，创建文件你可以这样设定权限，但系统文件/文件夹的默认权限又是从哪来的？这就要引入另外一个文件了。
fs_config.c
写过Android App的你肯定知道，App的一些数据都放在/data/data目录下。正常情况下这个目录是不可以访问的：
/data/data $ ls
ls: .: Permission denied
我们看一下这个目录的权限：
/data/data $ ls -ld
drwxrwx--x 310 system system 12288 2019-01-11 09:51 .
我们作为shell用户，只有一个x权限， 当然访问不了。那如果我要给shell赋予访问权限改怎么改呢？
这就需要了解一下system/core/libcutils/fs_config.c文件了。系统目录和文件的用户组以及权限都是在这个文件里定义的：
/* Rules for directories.
** These rules are applied based on "first match", so they
** should start with the most specific path and work their
** way up to the root.
*/
static const struct fs_path_config android_dirs[] = {

感觉也不用多说，android_dirs[]负责文件夹的权限配置，android_files[]负责文件的权限配置。
从里面定义找找刚提到的/data/data目录
{ 00771, AID_SYSTEM, AID_SYSTEM, 0, "data/data" },
你看，就是这么回事儿而已。如果要改成shell权限的话，只需要这样改就可以了：
{ 00771, AID_SYSTEM, AID_SHELL, 0, "data/data" },
当然，如果系统里还要添加其他目录、文件需要指定权限，只需要在这个文件里添加一行即可。
0100 Android App Permission
讲到这里，还遗留一个开头提出的问题：
为什么你在AndroidManifest文件请求storage权限你就可以访问设备文件？
0010里提到过，PackageManagerService在启动后会扫描所有已经安装的App，然后加载和解析他们的Androidmanifest文件，生成packages.list和packages.xml等文件。解析过程就包括了permission的解析与拦截。
frameworks/base/core/res/AndroidManifest.xml 这个文件中定义了Permission拦截规则，下面列举几个：
<!-- Allows an application to read from external storage.
<p>Any app that declares the {@link #WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE} permission is implicitly
granted this permission.</p>
<p>This permission is enforced starting in API level 19. Before API level 19, this
permission is not enforced and all apps still have access to read from external storage.
You can test your app with the permission enforced by enabling <em>Protect USB
storage</em> under Developer options in the Settings app on a device running Android 4.1 or
higher.</p>
<p>Also starting in API level 19, this permission is <em>not</em> required to
read/write files in your application-specific directories returned by
{@link android.content.Context#getExternalFilesDir} and
{@link android.content.Context#getExternalCacheDir}.
<p class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> If <em>both</em> your <a
href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element.html#min">{@code
minSdkVersion}</a> and <a
href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element.html#target">{@code
targetSdkVersion}</a> values are set to 3 or lower, the system implicitly
grants your app this permission. If you don\'t need this permission, be sure your <a
href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element.html#target">{@code
targetSdkVersion}</a> is 4 or higher.
<p>Protection level: dangerous
-->
<permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"
android:permissionGroup="android.permission-group.STORAGE"
android:label="@string/permlab_sdcardRead"
android:description="@string/permdesc_sdcardRead"
android:protectionLevel="dangerous" />
<!-- Allows applications to access information about Wi-Fi networks.
<p>Protection level: normal
-->
<permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE"
android:description="@string/permdesc_accessWifiState"
android:label="@string/permlab_accessWifiState"
android:protectionLevel="normal" />
<!-- @SystemApi Allows applications to set the system time.
<p>Not for use by third-party applications. -->
<permission android:name="android.permission.SET_TIME"
android:protectionLevel="signature|privileged" />
这里看一下protectionLevel，normal是一般权限，即不需要动态申请，直接在Manifest里注册即可获得的权限。dangerous是敏感权限，需要动态申请告知用户才能获取的权限。signature|privileged一般是系统priv-app才拥有的权限，也就是拥有系统签名的系统应用。
他的拦截规则大概是，如果App申请了signature|privileged权限，但他是普通开发者的三方App，PMS就会将其从申请权限的列表里将该权限删除。这样你的App实际上就没有获得对应的权限了。
那么，文件属性的权限是怎么和Permission联系起来的？不出意外，系统也有一个关联文件的定义frameworks/base/data/etc/platform.xml：
<!-- This file is used to define the mappings between lower-level system
user and group IDs and the higher-level permission names managed

big security holes.

ignore these permissions being granted to apps and not
propagate the granted state. From N we are storing the

</permissions>
这个文件定义了所有权限所属的gid。从里面找一下READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE权限，emmmm，什么都没做。这是因为6.0之后存储权限变成动态，需要用户确认才可以获取权限，所以这里不作处理。动态权限这部分代码先不分析了，来看一下老版本的文件：
<permission name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >
<group gid="sdcard_r" />
</permission>
那明确了，READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE权限获取的gid是sdcard_r，然后查看上面的文件定义，对应AID_SDCARD_R，数值是1028。实际上在7.0上得到的是sdcard_rw，即1015。
PMS在解析每个Permission时会根据这个文件将Permission关联的gid 加入到一个gid的数组中去，从而硬件设备所对应的设备文件就能被该应用程序访问。这块具体代码流程放到下一篇去分析。想自己跟代码的话可以从该函数看起：
private void grantRequestedRuntimePermissions(PackageParser.Package pkg, int[] userIds,
String[] grantedPermissions) {
for (int userId : userIds) {
grantRequestedRuntimePermissionsForUser(pkg, userId, grantedPermissions);
}
// We could have touched GID membership, so flush out packages.list
synchronized (mPackages) {
mSettings.writePackageListLPr();
}
}
回到存储权限，既然系统会根据permission给App添加合适的gid，那么我们在看下内置存储的权限为
/sdcard # ls -ld
drwxrwx--x 27 root sdcard_rw 4096 1970-01-01 18:30 .
所以获得sdcard_rw权限组的应用才可以访问内置存储。
到此Android权限的底层实现原理简单介绍完了，不过目前这里还留有一个坑，那就是我在测试App里添加STORAGE权限后，安装到设备里，通过查看进程属性，发现：
# ps | grep softard
u0_a53 3530 638 969076 30720 binder_thr b07244fc S com.softard.test
# cat /proc/3530/status
Name: com.softard.test
State: S (sleeping)
Tgid: 3530
Pid: 3530
PPid: 638
TracerPid: 0
Uid: 10053 10053 10053 10053
Gid: 10053 10053 10053 10053
Ngid: 0
FDSize: 256
Groups: 9997 50053
Groups没有对应的gid，但是程序的确可以访问/sdcard
然后我又给App系统签名，作为系统应用放进去再看，
# ps | grep soft
system 3560 629 985352 49184 SyS_epoll_ abea53b8 S com.softard.test
# cat /proc/3560/status
Name: com.softard.test
State: S (sleeping)
Tgid: 3560
Pid: 3560
PPid: 629
TracerPid: 0
Uid: 1000 1000 1000 1000
Gid: 1000 1000 1000 1000
Ngid: 0
FDSize: 256
Groups: 1000 1007 1010 1015 1021 1023 2002 2950 3001 3002 3003 3009 9997 41000
这时候Groups有sdcard_rw权限了。然后从设置里手动关掉存储权限，App无法读取文件，再次检查gid发现这个1015依旧存在。
WTF，7.0的表现跟5.0完全不一样？又是一个坑…后面抽空再填吧...
行吧，这篇概览就这样了，后面就开始从眼花缭乱的源码角度去看这一切的实现。
