Hey Adam,

The ndc command used didn't work on my Nvidia Shield (rooted with a
custom-built kernel). The ip link command does work. I have only
tested this on an Nvidia Shield (Android TV - Version 9.0 Pie).

I couldn't find a lot of documentation on ndc so it's possible my
device/kernel is misconfigured. If you suspect this is the case, let
me know.

You couldn't find documentation because there isn't any, it's effectively "private API" and Google has broken it time and again. It is rather curious that you're running into this issue though, since we've had the NDC code in place since before Android 9 came out and went through breaking changes in every cycle without these specific invocations failing. The last ndc related problem we had was with the Android 11 release, where a similar fix[1] was implemented.

I've Cc'ed Jason for reviewing this change, but I'm decidedly curious as to why just the Nvidia SHIELD seems to need it.

I get a permission denied error when running the ndc command, even with root. Given the lack of ndc documentation I didn't get any further than that. If you have any other ideas I can try them.

darcy:/ # ndc interface setmtu wg0 1418
400 0 Failed to set MTU (Permission denied)
darcy:/ # ifconfig wg0 | grep MTU
          UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP  MTU:1420  Metric:1
darcy:/ # ip link set dev wg0 mtu 1419
darcy:/ # ifconfig wg0 | grep MTU
          UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP  MTU:1419  Metric:1
darcy:/ # whoami
root


I'll await Jason's review
