"The emulator does not permit renaming the temporary system image or
persisting it at device power-off."

This is presumably because system images aren't normally modified at
runtime, unlike the user data images.

To create a system image with security labels for SE Android, we
modified mkyaffs2image to create the image with the extended attributes
already set based on our external/sepolicy/file_contexts configuration,
which specifies a mapping from pathname regexes to security contexts.
It shouldn't be hard to generalize our code to support other xattrs.
Our changes to external/yaffs2 have been merged into AOSP.  We also did
the same thing for make_ext4fs (system/extras/ext4_utils), as ext4 is
used on modern devices.
