Florent Fourcot 52f072f580 netfilter: ipset: forbid family for hash:mac sets
[ Upstream commit cbdebe481a ]

Userspace `ipset` command forbids family option for hash:mac type:

ipset create test hash:mac family inet4
ipset v6.30: Unknown argument: `family'

However, this check is not done in kernel itself. When someone use
external netlink applications (pyroute2 python library for example), one
can create hash:mac with invalid family and inconsistant results from
userspace (`ipset` command cannot read set content anymore).

This patch enforce the logic in kernel, and forbids insertion of
hash:mac with a family set.

Since IP_SET_PROTO_UNDEF is defined only for hash:mac, this patch has no
impact on other hash:* sets

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
