[PATCH 5.4 90/92] netfilter: nft_dynset: report EOPNOTSUPP on missing set feature

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jan 11 2021 - 08:13:59 EST


From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 95cd4bca7b1f4a25810f3ddfc5e767fb46931789 upstream.

If userspace requests a feature which is not available the original set
definition, then bail out with EOPNOTSUPP. If userspace sends
unsupported dynset flags (new feature not supported by this kernel),
then report EOPNOTSUPP to userspace. EINVAL should be only used to
report malformed netlink messages from userspace.

Fixes: 22fe54d5fefc ("netfilter: nf_tables: add support for dynamic set updates")
