在system.img和data.img，我们发现目录和文件有自己的UID/GID及相应的访问权限
但在Android的编译环境中，这些目录和文件目录并没有对此有相应的配置。
事实上，这些修改是有mkyaffs2image工具完成的。
分析mkyaffs2image.c源代码，其过程如下：
1. 预制条件.
当我们使用 mkyaffs2image 工具生成yaffs2文件系统时，这里有两个预制条件：
a. 使用'-f'标志
/external/yaffs2/yaffs2/utils/mkyaffs2image.c.
如果'-f'，代码中fixstats标志会被设置，一些特殊操作将会根据标志来操作
if (strcmp(argv[1], "-f") == 0) {
fixstats = 1;
argc--;
argv++;
}
b. 输入的文件夹的名字必须是"data"或者"system"
if (fixstats) {
int len = strlen(argv[1]);
if((len >= 4) && (!strcmp(argv[1] + len - 4, "data"))) {
source_path_len = len - 4;
} else if((len >= 7) && (!strcmp(argv[1] + len - 6, "system"))) {
source_path_len = len - 6;
} else {
fprintf(stderr,"Fixstats (-f) option requested but filesystem is not data or android!\n");
exit(1);
}
fix_stat(argv[1], &stats);
}
2. 正常配置：访问权限、UID/GID.
mkyaffs2image 给所有的目录和文件uid:gid/ROOT:ROOT，使用在编译环境中得到原始的访问权限
3. Android特殊的配置
如果fixstats标志被设置了，mkyaffs2image 将会做一些特殊的配置用于Android操作系统
其配置流程如下：
/external/yaffs2/yaffs2/utils/mkyaffs2image.c.
main() -> process_directory() -> fix_stat() -> fs_config() ->
fs_config() 定义在 sysem/core/include/private/android_filesystem_config.h.
该函数根据android_dirs和android_files数据结构做Android相关的配置
4. android_dirs和android_files数据结构
定义在system/core/include/private/android_filesystem_config.h文件中：
static struct fs_path_config android_dirs[] = {
{ 00770, AID_SYSTEM, AID_CACHE, "cache" },
{ 00771, AID_SYSTEM, AID_SYSTEM, "data/app" },
