- Currently, if your process requires linux capabilities then you cannot use
- this command. You must instead request the capabilities in-process while
- still root, and then drop to your desired uid.
+ As of Android M, processes should use this option even if they
+ require linux capabilities. Previously, to acquire linux
+ capabilities, a process would need to run as root, request the
+ capabilities, then drop to its desired uid. There is a new
+ mechanism through fs_config that allows device manufacturers to add
+ linux capabilities to specific binaries on a file system that should
+ be used instead. This mechanism is described on
+ http://source.android.com/devices/tech/config/filesystem.html. When
+ using this new mechanism, processes can use the user option to
+ select their desired uid without ever running as root.
