    allow init and system_server access to tracing · 3a6bc68e
    mukesh agrawal authored
    Revise policy, to allow init and system_server to configure,
    clear, and read kernel trace events. This will enable us to
    debug certain WiFi failures.
    
    Note that system_server is restricted to only accessing
    a wifi-specific trace instance. (Hence, system_server is
    not allowed to interfere with atrace.) Moreover, even for
    the wifi trace instance, system_server is granted limited
    permissions. (system_server can not, e.g., change which
    events are traced.)
    
    Note also that init and system_server are only granted these
    powers on userdebug or eng builds.
    
    The init.te and system_server.te changes resolve the
    following denials:
