# Sample service for testing This is a sample service that can be used for testing init. ## Design The service includes a `.rc` file that allows starting it from init. service test_service /system/bin/test_service CapAmb 0000000000003000 class main user system group system capabilities NET_ADMIN NET_RAW disabled oneshot The service accepts any even number of arguments on the command line (i.e. any number of pairs of arguments.) It will attempt to find the first element of each pair of arguments in `/proc/self/status`, and attempt to exactly match the second element of the pair to the relevant line of `proc/self/status`. ### Example In the above case, the service will look for lines containing `CapAmb`: cat /proc/self/status ... CapAmb: 0000000000003000 And then attempt to exactly match the token after `:`, `0000000000003000`, with the command-line argument. If they match, the service exits successfully. If not, the service will exit with an error. ## Usage mmma -j <jobs> system/core/init/testservice adb root adb remount adb sync adb reboot adb root adb shell start test_service adb logcat -b all -d | grep test_service Look for an exit status of 0.
