Customizing Android System Properties

The Kbox container allows users to customize and overwrite system properties as required. To use custom properties, create a local.prop file in the startup path to record custom system property parameters and values. After a container is started, custom property values in this file are read to overwrite the original values during container initialization. The format of the local.prop file is as follows:

ro.product.board=HUAWEI
ro.product.brand=HUAWEI
ro.product.manufacturer=Huawei
ro.product.model=Huawei
ro.product.odm.brand=HUAWEI
ro.product.odm.manufacturer=Huawei
ro.product.odm.model=Huawei
ro.product.product.brand=HUAWEI
ro.product.product.manufacturer=Huawei
ro.product.product.model=Huawei
ro.product.system.brand=HUAWEI
ro.product.system.manufacturer=Huawei
ro.product.system.model=Huawei
ro.product.system_ext.brand=HUAWEI
ro.product.system_ext.manufacturer=Huawei
ro.product.vendor.brand=HUAWEI
ro.product.vendor.manufacturer=Huawei
ro.product.vendor.model=Huawei
ro.product.vendor.name=Huawei_arm64

During the startup of a Kbox container, the local.prop file in the startup path is pushed to the /data directory of the container. During the initialization, custom property values in the file are read to overwrite original ones.

You can refer to the following command to query a custom property (ro.product.system_ext.brand for example) in a Kbox container. index indicates the Kbox container ID.
