Hi,

We implemented a system applciation that must add a route to one of
the existing network interfaces in the phone. We tried to use
NetworkUtils.addHostRoute() but we get "Operation Not Permited".
We see that MobileDataStateTracker uses it; from our understanding the
tracker is running within ConnectivityService which runs in the
SystemServer.
We also believe that SystemServer does not run as root.
We'd like to know what we have to do to make our system app able to
call addHostRoute().

Thanks and regards,
