后者则通过frameworks/base/core/java/android/os/SystemProperties.java的接口定义，
private static native String native_get(String key);
private static native String native_get(String key, String def);
private static native void native_set(String key, String def);
public static void set(String key, String val) {
if (key.length() > PROP_NAME_MAX) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("key.length > " + PROP_NAME_MAX);
}
if (val != null && val.length() > PROP_VALUE_MAX) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("val.length > " +
PROP_VALUE_MAX);
}
native_set(key, val);
}
该接口类在初始化运行环境中注册对应的cpp接口android_os_SystemProperties.cpp，实际操作通过JNI调用的是cpp文件对应的接口：
frameworks/base/core/jni/AndroidRuntime.cpp
namespace android {
extern int register_android_os_SystemProperties(JNIEnv *env);
}
frameworks/base/core/jni/android_os_SystemProperties.cpp
static void SystemProperties_set(JNIEnv *env, jobject clazz, jstring keyJ, jstring valJ)
{
int err;
const char* key;
const char* val;
key = env->GetStringUTFChars(keyJ, NULL);
if (valJ == NULL) {
val = ""; /* NULL pointer not allowed here */
} else {
val = env->GetStringUTFChars(valJ, NULL);
}
err = property_set(key, val);
env->ReleaseStringUTFChars(keyJ, key);
if (valJ != NULL) {
env->ReleaseStringUTFChars(valJ, val);
}
}
设置key的value时，需要作鉴权，根据设置程序所在进程的fd获知uid值，比如system server进程可以设置net打头的key，不可以设置gsm打头的key，相关的定义如下：
system/core/include/private/android_filesystem_config.h
#define AID_ROOT 0 /* traditional unix root user */
#define AID_SYSTEM 1000 /* system server */
#define AID_RADIO 1001 /* telephony subsystem, RIL */
#define AID_DHCP 1014 /* dhcp client */
#define AID_SHELL 2000 /* adb and debug shell user */
#define AID_CACHE 2001 /* cache access */
#define AID_APP 10000 /* first app user */
