Description Phil Sutter 2020-02-19 14:13:46 UTC
Upstream recently received full among match support by making use of concatenated ranges support in nftables:

commit c33bae9c6c7a49c8af16df846e6112fc4727e643

    ebtables: among: Support mixed MAC and MAC/IP entries
    
    Powered by Stefano's support for concatenated ranges, a full among match
    replacement can be implemented. The trick is to add MAC-only elements as
    a concatenation of MAC and zero-length prefix, i.e. a range from
    0.0.0.0 till 255.255.255.255.
    
    Although not quite needed, detection of pure MAC-only matches is left in
    place. For those, no implicit 'meta protocol' match is added (which is
    required otherwise at least to keep nft output correct) and no concat
    type is used for the set.
