Description Eric Westbrook 2018-08-22 16:47:34 UTC
The `ipset` man page says:

    hash:net,port,net
        The hash:net,port,net set type  behaves  similarly
        to  hash:ip,port,net  but accepts a cidr value for
        both the first and last parameter.  Either  subnet
        is  permitted  to be a /0 should you wish to match
        port between all destinations.

But the following input generates `IPSET_ERR_INVALID_CIDR` anyway.

    # ipset restore
    create cidrzero hash:net,port,net family inet hashsize 1024 maxelem 65536 counters comment
    add cidrzero 0.0.0.0/0,12345,0.0.0.0/0
    ipset v6.34: Error in line 2: The value of the CIDR parameter of the IP address is invalid

Using non-zero addresses doesn't help, nor does only assigning one or the other CIDR to 0 rather than both.

Am I doing it wrong?  How is it supposed to be done?

 - ipset userland 6.34

Allow /0 as advertised

Fix hash:net,port,net for advertised /0 behavior.  Submitted by email to LKML, netfilter-devel, and netfilter maintainers.
