While checking the validity of insertion in __nft_rbtree_insert(),
we currently ignore conflicting elements and intervals only if they
are not active within the next generation.
However, if we consider expired elements and intervals as
potentially conflicting and overlapping, we'll return error for
entries that should be added instead. This is particularly visible
with garbage collection intervals that are comparable with the
element timeout itself, as reported by Mike Dillinger.
Other than the simple issue of denying insertion of valid entries,
this might also result in insertion of a single element (opening or
closing) out of a given interval. With single entries (that are
inserted as intervals of size 1), this leads in turn to the creation
of new intervals. For example:
# nft add element t s { 192.0.2.1 }
# nft list ruleset
[...]
elements = { 192.0.2.1-255.255.255.255 }
Always ignore expired elements active in the next generation, while
checking for conflicts.
It might be more convenient to introduce a new macro that covers
both inactive and expired items, as this type of check also appears
quite frequently in other set back-ends. This is however beyond the
scope of this fix and can be deferred to a separate patch.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
