    }init.rc文件在core/rootdir/init.rc,我挑部分内容展示如下:
......
on early-init
    # Set init and its forked children‘s oom_adj.
    write /proc/1/oom_adj -16
    # Set the security context for the init process.
    # This should occur before anything else (e.g. ueventd) is started.
    setcon u:r:init:s0
    start ueventd
......
service zygote /system/bin/app_process -Xzygote /system/bin --zygote --start-system-server
    class main
    socket zygote stream 660 root system
    onrestart write /sys/android_power/request_state wake
    onrestart write /sys/power/state on
    onrestart restart media
    onrestart restart netd
......
重要的数据结构有两个列表,一个队列。 
static list_declare(service_list); 
static list_declare(action_list); 
static list_declare(action_queue); 
*.rc 脚本中所有 service关键字定义的服务将会添加到 service_list 列表中。 
*.rc 脚本中所有 on     关键开头的动作将会被会添加到 action_list 列表中。 
main函数中解析init.rc文件的代码是:
init_parse_config_file("/init.rc");
该函数在system/core/init/init_parser.c中,如下:
int parse_config_file(const char *fn) 
{ 
    char *data; 
    data = read_file(fn, 0); 
    if (!data) return -1; 
    parse_config(fn, data); 
    DUMP(); 
    return 0; 
} 
其中的核心方法是parse_config(fn, data);,如下:
static void parse_config(const char *fn, char *s) 
{ 
    ... 
    case T_NEWLINE: 
        if (nargs) { 
            int kw = lookup_keyword(args[0]); 
            if (kw_is(kw, SECTION)) { 
                state.parse_line(&state, 0, 0); 
                parse_new_section(&state, kw, nargs, args); 
            } else { 
                state.parse_line(&state, nargs, args); 
            } 
            nargs = 0; 
        } 
   ... 
} 
parse_config会逐行对脚本进行解析,如果关键字类型为  SECTION ,就是上一模块中说的Section(语句块),那么将会执行 parse_new_section() 。
parse_new_section()中再分别对 service 或者 on 关键字开头的内容进行解析,如下: 
    ... 
    case K_service: 
        state->context = parse_service(state, nargs, args); 
        if (state->context) { 
            state->parse_line = parse_line_service; 
            return; 
        } 
        break; 
    case K_on: 
        state->context = parse_action(state, nargs, args); 
        if (state->context) { 
            state->parse_line = parse_line_action; 
            return; 
        } 
        break; 
    } 
    ... 对 on 关键字开头的内容进行解析 
static void *parse_action(struct parse_state *state, int nargs, char **args) 
{ 
    ... 
    act = calloc(1, sizeof(*act)); 
    act->name = args[1]; 
    list_init(&act->commands); 
    list_add_tail(&action_list, &act->alist); 
    ... 
} 对 service 关键字开头的内容进行解析 
static void *parse_service(struct parse_state *state, int nargs, char **args) 
{ 
    struct service *svc; 
    if (nargs name = args[1]; 
    svc->classname = "default"; 
    memcpy(svc->args, args + 2, sizeof(char*) * nargs); 
    svc->args[nargs] = 0; 
    svc->nargs = nargs; 
    svc->onrestart.name = "onrestart"; 
    list_init(&svc->onrestart.commands); 
    //添加该服务到 service_list 列表 
    list_add_tail(&service_list, &svc->slist); 
    return svc; 
} 解析后的服务表现形式是一个service结构体。例如:
