To add a SystemServer service on Android 15 without crashing the Watchdog, map your changes to the correct boot phase and register Watchdog monitoring patterns. This ensures your service follows the framework lifecycle and avoids deadlocks.

Updating system service APIs in frameworks/base requires following binder IPC contracts and documenting permission checks. Map API surface updates to the correct code paths to prevent service misregistration and maintain system_server stability.

Android SystemServer service modifications cause deadlocks when they violate binder IPC contracts or skip lifecycle callbacks. Ensure your changes align with boot phase callbacks and Watchdog safeguards to keep system_server stable.

Yes, this provides grep-based commands to locate Watchdog registrations and API surface references across frameworks/native, libcore, and libnativehelper. It helps identify where each service lives and exposes permissions.

You should hand off SystemServer changes to SELinux, init, or HAL experts when responsibilities cross domains and extend beyond the framework lifecycle. This ensures binder permission requirements and forbidden action guards are correctly applied.
