      Introduce new sepolicy injection mechanism · 49f25906
      topjohnwu authored
      In the current implementation, Magisk will either have to recreate
      all early mount implementation (for legacy SAR and rootfs devices) or
      delegate early mount to first stage init (for 2SI devices) to access
      required partitions for loading sepolicy. It then has to recreate the
      split sepolicy loading implementation in-house, apply patches, then
      dump the compiled + patched policies into monolithic format somewhere.
      Finally, it patches the original init to force it to load the sepolicy
      file we just created.
      
      With the increasing complexity involved in early mount and split
      sepolicy (there is even APEX module involved in the future!),
      it is about time to rethink Magisk's sepolicy strategy as rebuilding
      init's functionality is not scalable and easy to maintain.
      
      In this commit, instead of building sepolicy ourselves, we mock
      selinuxfs with FIFO files connected to a pre-init daemon, waiting
      for the actual init process to directly write the sepolicy file into
      MagiskInit. We then patch the file and load it into the kernel. Some
      FIFO tricks has to be used to hijack the original init process's
      control flow and prevent race conditions, details are directly in the
      comments in code.
      
      At the moment, only system-as-root (read-only root) support is added.
      Support for legacy rootfs devices will come with a follow up commit.

      Use /data as tmpfs mount point in 2SI setup · 810d27a6
      topjohnwu authored
      Design credit to @yujincheng08
      Close #5146. Fix #5491, fix #3752
      
      Previously, Magisk changes the mount point from /system to /system_root
      by patching fstab to prevent the original init from changing root.
      The reason why we want to prevent the original init from switching the
      root directory is because it will then be read-only, making patching
      and injecting magiskinit into the boot chain difficult.
      
      This commit (ab)uses the fact that the /data folder will never be part
      of early mount (because it is handled very late in the boot by vold),
      so that we can use it as the mount point of tmpfs to store files.
      
      Some advantages of this method:
      
      - No need to switch root manually
      - No need to modify fstab, which significantly improves compatibility
        e.g. avoid hacks for weird devices like those using oplus.fstab,
        and avoid hacking init to bypass fstab in device trees
      - Supports skip_mount.cfg
      - Support DSU
