This line made me wonder whether cap of 5 types is valid so I researched a bit and found this line in the original source https://git.netfilter.org/nftables/tree/src/datatype.c?id=1acc2fd48c755a8931fa87b8d0560b750316059f#n1165
Code never restricts concat type length to 5 and it is possible to add 6 types via the CLI:
In case there is an overflow, the first type gets either ignored or converted (type is reduced to two bits, e.g.
nf_proto
), meaning that the cap is not specifically checked:Now, I am not sure whether using 6 types is a legitimate use case but I see that we check if there is more than 5 types beforehand
nftables/set.go

I will leave it up to @konradh to decide if he wants to leave this cap or not.
cc @stapelberg for awareness of this limitation, maybe good to note down in case someone raises an issue in the future.
