VR HWC is being split out of VR Window Manager. It creates a HW binder
interface used by SurfaceFlinger which implements the HWComposer HAL and
a regular binder interface which will be used by a system app to receive
the SurfaceFlinger output.
Bug: b/36051907
Test: Ran in permissive mode and ensured no permission errors show in
logcat.

Update shell.te to reflect the fact that hwbinder_user permission is for
lshal, not dumpsys.

- Added set_prop to shell so that you can set it from shell.
- Added set_prop to sytem_app so that it can be updated in settings.
Bug: 34256441
Test: can update prop from Settings and shell. nfc and lights work with
ag/1833821 with persist.hal.binderization set to on and off. There are
no additional selinux denials.

In order to dump hardware services using dumpsys, dumpsys needs to be
able to talk to the hwservicemanager.
Bug: 33382892
Test: dumpsys --hw works from unrooted shell

6e4508e625 inadvertently removed access
to ro.serialno and ro.boot.serialno from ADB shell. This is needed for
CTS. This commit thus reinstates the access.
Test: adb shell getprop ro.serialno

- transition to logpersist from init
- sort some overlapping negative references
- intention is to allow logpersist to be used by vendor
userdebug logging

app_domain was split up in commit: 2e00e6373f to
enable compilation by hiding type_transition rules from public policy. These
rules need to be hidden from public policy because they describe how objects are
labeled, of which non-platform should be unaware. Instead of cutting apart the
app_domain macro, which non-platform policy may rely on for implementing new app
types, move all app_domain calls to private policy.

Test: bullhead and sailfish both boot. sediff shows no policy change.

In order to support platform changes without simultaneous updates from
non-platform components, the platform and non-platform policies must be
split. In order to provide a guarantee that policy written for
non-platform objects continues to provide the same access, all types
exposed to non-platform policy are versioned by converting them and the
policy using them into attributes.
This change performs that split, the subsequent versioning and also
generates a mapping file to glue the different policy components
together.
Test: Device boots and runs.

Most of this CL mirrors what we've already done for the "netd" Binder
interface, while sorting a few lists alphabetically.
Migrating installd to Binder will allow us to get rid of one of
the few lingering text-based command protocols, improving system
maintainability and security.
Test: builds, boots

Only init and ueventd have any access to /dev/port, and neither should
have any use for it. As it stands, leaving port in just represents
additional attack surface with no useful functionality, so it should be
removed if possible, not only from Pixel devices, but from all Android
devices.
Test: The phone boots successfully

external/toybox commit a583afc812cf7be74ebab72294c8df485908ff04 started
having dmesg use /dev/kmsg, which is unreadable to the unprivileged
shell user. Revoke syslog(2) to the shell user for consistency.
The kernel dmesg log is a source of kernel pointers, which can leak
kASLR information from the kernel. Restricting access to kernel
information will make attacks against Android more difficult. Having
said that, dmesg information is still available from "adb bugreport", so
this change doesn't completely shutdown kernel info leaks.
This change essentially reverts us to the state we were in between Nov 8
2011 and May 27 2014. During that almost 3 year period, the unprivileged
shell user was unable to access dmesg, and there was only one complaint
during that time.

TODO: Further unify /dev/kmsg permissions with syslog_read permissions.
Test: policy compiles, no dmesg output

- Allow dumpstate to create the dumpservice service.
- Allow System Server and Shell to find that service.
- Don't allow anyone else to create that service.
- Don't allow anyone else to find that service.

Divide policy into public and private components. This is the first
step in splitting the policy creation for platform and non-platform
policies. The policy in the public directory will be exported for use
in non-platform policy creation. Backwards compatibility with it will
be achieved by converting the exported policy into attribute-based
policy when included as part of the non-platform policy and a mapping
file will be maintained to be included with the platform policy that
maps exported attributes of previous versions to the current platform
version.
Eventually we would like to create a clear interface between the
platform and non-platform device components so that the exported policy,
and the need for attributes is minimal. For now, almost all types and
avrules are left in public.
Test: Tested by building policy and running on device.
