# Microdroid Payload
|
|
|
|
Payload disk is a composite disk referencing host APEXes and an APK so that microdroid
|
|
reads activates APEXes and executes a binary within the APK.
|
|
|
|
## Format
|
|
|
|
Payload disk has 1 + N(number of APEX/APK payloads) partitions.
|
|
|
|
The first partition is a Microdroid Signature partition which describes other partitions.
|
|
And APEXes and an APK are following as separate partitions.
|
|
|
|
For now, the order of partitions are important.
|
|
|
|
* partition 1: Microdroid Signature
|
|
* partition 2 ~ n: APEX payloads
|
|
* partition n + 1: APK payload
|
|
|
|
It's subject to change in the future, though.
|
|
|
|
### Microdroid Signature
|
|
|
|
Microdroid Signature contains the signatures of the payloads so that the payloads are
|
|
verified inside the Guest OS.
|
|
|
|
Microdroid Signature is composed of header and body.
|
|
|
|
| offset | size | description |
|
|
|--------|------|----------------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
| 0 | 4 | Header. unsigned int32: body length(L) in big endian |
|
|
| 4 | L | Body. A protobuf message. [schema](microdroid_signature.proto) |
|
|
|
|
### Payload Partitions
|
|
|
|
At the end of each payload partition the size of the original payload file (APEX or APK) is stored
|
|
in 4-byte big endian.
|
|
|
|
For example, the following code shows how to get the original size of host apex file
|
|
when the apex is read in microdroid as /dev/block/vdc2,
|
|
|
|
int fd = open("/dev/block/vdc2", O_RDONLY | O_BINARY | O_CLOEXEC);
|
|
uint32_t size;
|
|
lseek(fd, -sizeof(size), SEEK_END);
|
|
read(fd, &size, sizeof(size));
|
|
size = betoh32(size);
|
|
|
|
## How to Create
|
|
|
|
### `mk_payload`
|
|
|
|
`mk_payload` creates a payload image.
|
|
```
|
|
$ cat payload_config.json
|
|
{
|
|
"system_apexes": [
|
|
"com.android.adbd",
|
|
],
|
|
"apexes": [
|
|
{
|
|
"name": "com.my.hello",
|
|
"path": "hello.apex"
|
|
}
|
|
],
|
|
"apk": {
|
|
"name": "com.my.world",
|
|
"path": "/path/to/world.apk"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
$ adb push payload_config.json hello.apex /data/local/tmp/
|
|
$ adb shell 'cd /data/local/tmp; /apex/com.android.virt/bin/mk_payload payload_config.json payload.img
|
|
$ adb shell ls /data/local/tmp/*.img
|
|
payload.img
|
|
payload-footer.img
|
|
payload-header.img
|
|
payload-signature.img
|
|
payload.img.0 # fillers
|
|
payload.img.1
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In the future, [VirtManager](../../virtmanager) will handle this. |
