* Put in some permission enforcement around agent connection notification
and full-backup scheduling.
* Full backup now applies to any package, not just backup participants who
have declared their own android:backupAgent
* The process of running the backup operation on the set of apps who have
been queued for it is now done in a separate thread, with a notification
mechanism from the main Backup Manager service to pass along new-agent
binding knowledge. There's no longer one do-backup message on the primary
Handler per target application.
* The new backup thread sets up the desired transport now and passes
along the newly backed-up data to it for each backup target. Two
transports have been defined so far, GoogleTransport and AdbTransport;
both are stubs at present.
Note that at present the backup data output file seems to be properly
created, but after doBackup() is called on the test app's agent it's
still zero size.
* Refactored Compatibility code
* Added CompatibilityInfo class
* Removed getApplicationScale from Context
* Added Resources#getCompatibilityInfo so that RootView can get the compatibility info w/o going through Context
* Expandable support
* Added expandable tag under manifest
* Old application w/o expandable is given the default screen size ([320, 480] x density).
* The non-expandable window is centered.
Track the foreground CPU time of an activity so that we can tell if apps are
spending more time in the background compared to foreground.
Update power profile values for screen backlight and GPS.
Fix some javadoc bugs (milliseconds vs. microseconds).
Backups will be handled by launching the application in a special
mode under which no activities or services will be started, only
the BackupAgent subclass named in the app's android:backupAgent
manifest property. This takes the place of the BackupService class
used earlier during development.
In the cases of *full* backup or restore, an application that does
not supply its own BackupAgent will be launched in a restricted
manner; in particular, it will be using the default Application
class rather than any manifest-declared one. This ensures that the
app is not running any code that may try to manipulate its data
while the backup system reads/writes its data set.
The algorithm for this is currently very simple: all persistent processes are
always in the normal scheduling group, all other processes are normal if their
oom_adj is as good or better than VISIBLE, otherwise they are in the background
group.
Note that this currently results in a fair number of log messages about not
being able to change the group, since the system process does not have
permission to do so. Once a kernel fix is in, these will go away and the code
will start working.
If an installerPackageName was specified when the app was installed,
looks for a receiver of ACTION_APP_ERROR in that package. If found,
this is the bug report receiver and the crash/ANR dialog will get a
"Report" button. If pressed, a bug report will be delivered.
Now we have a 5-second time after home is pressed, during which
only the home app (and the status bar) can switch to another app.
After that time, any start activity requests that occurred will
be executed, to allow things like alarms to be displayed. Also
if during that time the user launches another app, the pending
starts will be executed without resuming their activities and
the one they started placed at the top and executed.
Issue 1837610 Adding a Widget before Running the Associated App Causes a Force Close
We were not retrieving the shared libraries of an application when deliving a
broadcast to an explicit component.
Issue 1753079 loading class path of instrumented app into instrumentation may load wrong path when instrumented app shares process with other apps:
We were using the ApplicationInfo that was used to originally create the process, not the one that the
instrumentation is against.
This introduces a new class in the base platform for performing a clean
shutdown (which was copied from the classes in the policies). It
includes new features to send a shutdown broadcast for applications
to do cleanup, and ot have the activity manager pause the current
activity before proceeding with the shutdown. These facilities are
also use to write at the most recent stat files for sync, battery
and user activity.
There are three major classes of changes here:
- Avoid writing lines where their values are often empty, false, or some other typical thing.
- Use partial writes to the PrintWriter to avoid creating temporary strings.
- Use StringBuilder where we need to generate real String objects (and where possible cache the result).
My original implementation was computing averages and medians. Now we do binning, as requested. So much simpler, too! In addition, it fixes a bug where when hoping across activities we were only accounting for the last activity as the total time; now we count the time from the start of the initial activity.
This also includes some reduction and optimization of the activity manager dumpsys output.
The usage stats service now collects per-activity launch time stats. There are a number of fixes and improvements to its statistics management and collection; it now operates its calendar in GMT and ensures that for checkin purposes it always reports one day and only one complete day to the checkin service.
Also change the checkin option from "-c" to "--checkin" since it is really a special thing.
