Eyal says:
doesn't the use of nft_pf(pkt) in this context limit the matching of
encapsulated packets to the same family?
IIUC when an e.g. IPv6-in-IPv4 packet is matched, the nft_pf(pkt) will
be the decapsulated packet family - IPv6 - whereas the state may be
IPv4. So this check would not allow matching the 'underlay' address in
such cases.
I know this was a limitation in xt_policy. but is this intentional in
this matcher? or is it possible to use state->props.family when
validating the match instead of nft_pf(pkt)?
Userspace already tells us which address family it expects to match, so
we can just use the real state family rather than the hook family.
so change it as suggested above.

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.
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.
