android p data/system目录下几个重要文件的作用

PMS

PMS 就是PackageManagerService,主要是负责应用的安装卸载更新等工作。

            scanDirTracedLI(new File(VENDOR_OVERLAY_DIR),
                    mDefParseFlags//0 wjc
                    | PackageParser.PARSE_IS_SYSTEM_DIR,
                    scanFlags//SCAN_BOOTING | SCAN_INITIAL|SCAN_FIRST_BOOT_OR_UPGRADE;wjc
                    | SCAN_AS_SYSTEM
                    | SCAN_AS_VENDOR,
                    0);
            scanDirTracedLI(new File(PRODUCT_OVERLAY_DIR),
                    mDefParseFlags
                    | PackageParser.PARSE_IS_SYSTEM_DIR,
                    scanFlags
                    | SCAN_AS_SYSTEM
                    | SCAN_AS_PRODUCT,
                    0);

            /// M: Support RSC overlay dir
            sPmsExt.scanDirLI(PmsExt.INDEX_RSC_OVERLAY, mDefParseFlags, scanFlags, 0);
            mParallelPackageParserCallback.findStaticOverlayPackages();

            // Find base frameworks (resource packages without code).
            scanDirTracedLI(frameworkDir,
                    mDefParseFlags
                    | PackageParser.PARSE_IS_SYSTEM_DIR,
                    scanFlags
                    | SCAN_NO_DEX
                    | SCAN_AS_SYSTEM
                    | SCAN_AS_PRIVILEGED,
                    0);

PMS 通过上面scanDirTracedLI来解析应用，并保持应用的信息。
如何保持信息，是通过本身的Settings类来实现的，这个类在com.android.server.pm

    Settings(File dataDir, PermissionSettings permission, Object lock) {
        mLock = lock;
        mPermissions = permission;
        mRuntimePermissionsPersistence = new RuntimePermissionPersistence(mLock);

        mSystemDir = new File(dataDir, "system");
        mSystemDir.mkdirs();
        FileUtils.setPermissions(mSystemDir.toString(),
                FileUtils.S_IRWXU|FileUtils.S_IRWXG
                |FileUtils.S_IROTH|FileUtils.S_IXOTH,
                -1, -1);
        mSettingsFilename = new File(mSystemDir, "packages.xml");
        mBackupSettingsFilename = new File(mSystemDir, "packages-backup.xml");
        mPackageListFilename = new File(mSystemDir, "packages.list");
        FileUtils.setPermissions(mPackageListFilename, 0640, SYSTEM_UID, PACKAGE_INFO_GID);

        final File kernelDir = new File("/config/sdcardfs");
        mKernelMappingFilename = kernelDir.exists() ? kernelDir : null;

        // Deprecated: Needed for migration
        mStoppedPackagesFilename = new File(mSystemDir, "packages-stopped.xml");
        mBackupStoppedPackagesFilename = new File(mSystemDir, "packages-stopped-backup.xml");
    }

从上面看，主要是保持到data/system目录下的几个文件中

data/system 几个重要文件

    packages.xml维护的是应用包的基本信息，权限信息、用户权组信息等等。信息比较详细。
    packages.list维护的是应用包列表，只是包含具体的包名以及存储的路径等等信息。
    packages-stopped.xml 维护的是被停掉的应用

packages.list
