For Android users longing to tune in to their favorite FM stations, roadblocks often arise due to Selinux restrictions. This article delves into a specific issue encountered by a developer attempting to grant FM radio app access to the /dev/fm module using a custom Selinux module.
The issue involves an error message displayed in dmesg indicating communication issues between the 'android.fmradio' application and the '/dev/fm' device due to conflicting security contexts. The developer outlines their attempt to resolve this using a Magisk module containing a custom Selinux rule to modify access permissions. They shared their module details and Magisk logs to seek guidance on potential debugging steps.
Understanding the complexities of Selinux policy enforcement, particularly in the context of audio devices, is crucial for developers aiming to overcome such restrictions. While this specific case highlights the challenges faced, it also demonstrates the power of customization offered by tools like Magisk.
