Hi Wei,

I don't know how you ended up finding a relation between nftables API 
and genetlink, but it's bogus.

The set name has a fixed size of 16 characters (IFNAMSIZ), not 15.
And its netlink policy has nothing to do with genetlink.

Have a look at include/net/netfilter/nf_tables.h in kernel tree, there 
struct  nft_set is declared.
Its netlink related policy is in net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c 
(nft_set_policy)

Br,

Tomasz
