Thank you. I still have some questions:
1. After the installation, the app's related permissions files is
saved in the same .apk file or saved in a system central file?
Take a look at /data/system/packages.xml
2. At runtime, I learned that there is a "reference monitor" from
the paper Understanding Android Security to check the permission
lable. Which is the source code for this "reference monitor", or
it's a vitual concept. I wonder to know which parts of source code
dealing with this function. Thanks.
We described it more as a "virtual concept". There isn't code directly
corresponding to a reference monitor, but the Activity Manager
(frameworks/base/services/java/com/android/server/am/
ActivityManagerService.java) is a good place to start looking.
