Legacy ebtables supports policies for user-defined chains - and what's
worse, they default to ACCEPT unlike anywhere else. So lack of support
for this braindead feature in ebtables-nft is actually a change of
behaviour which very likely affects all ebtables users out there.
The solution implemented here uses an implicit (and transparent) last
rule in all user-defined ebtables-nft chains with policy other than
RETURN. This rule is identified by an nft comment
"XTABLES_EB_INTERNAL_POLICY_RULE" (since commit ccf154d7420c0 ("xtables:
Don't use native nftables comments") nft comments are not used
otherwise).
To minimize interference with existing code, this policy rule is removed
from chains during cache population and the policy is saved in
NFTNL_CHAIN_POLICY attribute. When committing changes to the kernel,
nft_commit() traverses through the list of chains and (re-)creates
policy rules if required.
In ebtables-nft-restore, table flushes are problematic. To avoid weird
kernel error responses, introduce a custom 'table_flush' callback which
removes any pending policy rule add/remove jobs prior to creating the
NFT_COMPAT_TABLE_FLUSH one.
I've hidden all this mess behind checks for h->family, so hopefully
impact on {ip,ip6,arp}tables-nft should be negligible.

Changes since v1:
- Set EBT_NOPROTO in policy rules to avoid generating spurious ether
type match.
- Fix RETURN policy printing for user-defined ebtables chains.
- Switch from a per-rule approach to chain postprocessing after rules
have been fetched. This way only the last rule is considered as policy
rule, so if a user appended a rule to that chain using 'nft' command,
chain will fall back to RETURN policy and the former policy rule stays
in place.
- Introduce helper nft_chain_last_rule() to aid in the above.
- Improve policy rule parsing as suggested by Florian.
- Introduce nft_bridge_commit_prepare() to outsource bridge-specific
actions at nft_commit() time.
Note that I didn't drop the policy comment. It is required by
nft_abort_policy_rule() to identify suitable rule append/delete jobs.
This is strictly not necessary, the function runs only prior to a table
flush - so in theory one could just drop any rule append/delete jobs
from the batch for that particular table. After that, policy rules would
look just like regular ones also in 'nft' output. The downside is that a
user could accidentally set the chain's policy this way since
| ebtables-nft -A foo -j ACCEPT
would yield identical results as:
| ebtables-nft -P foo ACCEPT
This seems unproblematic, but consider a stupid example:
| ebtables-nft -N foo -P RETURN
| ebtables-nft -A foo -j ACCEPT
| ebtables-nft -A foo -j DROP
So after the second command, chain foo has one rule which accepts
everything. During the third command, that accept rule is turned into
the policy and after it we have a chain with accept policy but a single
rule which drops everything. That is at least a functional deviation
from legacy ebtables, and a confusing one as well. :)
