...and return -ENOTEMPTY to the front-end in this case, instead of
proceeding. Currently, nft takes care of checking for these cases
and not sending them to the kernel, but if we drop the set_overlap()
call in nft we can end up in situations like:
# nft add table t
# nft add set t s '{ type inet_service ; flags interval ; }'
# nft add element t s '{ 1 - 5 }'
# nft add element t s '{ 6 - 10 }'
# nft add element t s '{ 4 - 7 }'
# nft list set t s
table ip t {
set s {
type inet_service
flags interval
elements = { 1-3, 4-5, 6-7 }
}
}
This change has the primary purpose of making the behaviour
consistent with nft_set_pipapo, but is also functional to avoid
inconsistent behaviour if userspace sends overlapping elements for
any reason.
v2: When we meet the same key data in the tree, as start element while
inserting an end element, or as end element while inserting a start
element, actually check that the existing element is active, before
resetting the overlap flag (Pablo Neira Ayuso)

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
