eligibilityd uses several inputs to determine whether the device is eligible for country-specific features to be enabled. Which inputs are used to determine eligibility of each domain is dependent on the com.apple.MobileAsset.OSEligibility configuration plist asset received by the device. It was introduced in iOS 17.4 and macOS 14.4 to control access to features added in compliance with the European Union's Digital Markets Act.
eligibilityd runs as an XPC mach service, and is the backend consulted by os_eligibility_*
functions located in the private libsystem_eligibility.dylib.
