Subject: [PATCH] doc: Document that kernel may accept unimplemented expressions
Date: Sat, 9 Apr 2022 12:44:02 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220409094402.22567-1-toiwoton@gmail.com> (raw)
Kernel silently accepts input chain filters using meta skuid, meta
skgid, meta cgroup or socket cgroupv2 expressions but they don't work
yet. Warn the users of this possibility.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
---------------------------------
+Note that the kernel may accept expressions without errors even if it
+doesn't implement the feature. For example, input chain filters using
+*meta skuid*, *meta skgid*, *meta cgroup* or *socket cgroupv2*
+expressions are silently accepted but they don't work yet.
+
EXIT STATUS
-----------
On success, nft exits with a status of 0. Unspecified errors cause it to exit
