Guide for AOSP developers

Is there a guide on how to add both the su executable and the SuperUser application to the AOSP build and compile it along with the rest of the AOSP code?
Do I just copy the su part to /system/extras/su/
and the application to /packages/apps/ ? While Android.mk should I use for the app?
A guide for that would be awesome.
Thanks!

I've installed the su, using the following Android.mk:
# Root AOSP source makefile
# su is built here, and
my_path := $(call my-dir)
SUPERUSER_EMBEDDED := true
LOCAL_PATH := $(my_path)
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_MODULE := su
LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS := eng debug optional
LOCAL_LDFLAGS := -static
LOCAL_FORCE_STATIC_EXECUTABLE := true
LOCAL_C_INCLUDES := include/
LOCAL_STATIC_LIBRARIES := \
liblog \
libc \
libselinux \
libcutils
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := su.c daemon.c activity.c db.c utils.c pts.c sqlite3.c hacks.c binds.c
LOCAL_CFLAGS := -DSQLITE_OMIT_LOAD_EXTENSION -std=gnu11
LOCAL_CFLAGS += -DREQUESTOR=\"$(shell cat $(LOCAL_PATH)/packageName)\"
ifdef SUPERUSER_EMBEDDED
LOCAL_CFLAGS += -DSUPERUSER_EMBEDDED
endif
LOCAL_MODULE_PATH := $(TARGET_ROOT_OUT_SBIN)
include $(BUILD_EXECUTABLE)
ifdef SUPERUSER_EMBEDDED
# make sure init.superuser.rc is imported from
# init.rc or similar
SUPERUSER_RC := $(TARGET_ROOT_OUT)/init.superuser.rc
$(SUPERUSER_RC): $(LOCAL_PATH)/init.superuser.rc | $(ACP)
$(copy-file-to-new-target)
SUPERUSER_MARKER := $(TARGET_OUT_ETC)/.has_su_daemon
$(SUPERUSER_MARKER): $(LOCAL_INSTALLED_MODULE)
@mkdir -p $(dir $@)
@rm -rf $@
$(hide) touch $@
ALL_MODULES.$(LOCAL_MODULE).INSTALLED := \
$(ALL_MODULES.$(LOCAL_MODULE).INSTALLED) $(SUPERUSER_RC) $(SUPERUSER_MARKER)
endif
And the Superuser app using the following Android.mk:
LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir)
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
SUPERUSER_PACKAGE := com.koushikdutta.superuser
LOCAL_STATIC_JAVA_LIBRARIES := libarity android-support-v4
LOCAL_PACKAGE_NAME := Superuser
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := $(call all-java-files-under,src) $(call all-java-files-under,../Widgets/src)
LOCAL_AAPT_INCLUDE_ALL_RESOURCES := true
LOCAL_AAPT_FLAGS := --extra-packages com.koushikdutta.widgets -S $(LOCAL_PATH)/../Widgets/res --auto-add-overlay --rename-manifest-package $(SUPERUSER_PACKAGE)
include $(BUILD_PACKAGE)
Everything was compiled successfuly, and the Superuser program is visible, but I get this error in logcat:
09-27 11:59:00.516 1363 1363 W Superuser: java.io.IOException: Error running exec(). Command: [su] Working Directory: null Environment: null
Meaning that the app cannot run su command :/

Implementing the changes in here helped, but the SuperUser program is still buggy for me..

Were you able to build the APK under N, with JDK8?

I would also love documentation on how to integrate this (particularly suhide) in AOSP/CM.

Hi shlatchz ,
I managed to build su with AOSP but seems the generated binaries are not the right one.
did you manage to complete the integration and get root access ?
I am working on snapdragon 820 , android 6.0.1.
Any suggestions/pointers please
