Missing NFTA_SET_SUBKEY_UNSPEC here.
Not a problem if nla_parse_nested*() is not used as in your case,
probably good for consistency, in case there is a need for using such
function in the future.

Could you use NFTA_SET_DESC instead for this? The idea is to add the
missing front-end code to parse this new attribute and store the
subkeys length in set->desc.klen[], hence nft_pipapo_init() can just
use the already parsed data. I think this will simplify the code that
I'm seeing in nft_pipapo_init() a bit since not netlink parsing will
be required.
I'm attaching a sketch patch, including also the use of NFTA_LIST_ELEM:
NFTA_SET_DESC
NFTA_SET_DESC_SIZE
NFTA_SET_DESC_SUBKEY
NFTA_LIST_ELEM
NFTA_SET_SUBKEY_LEN
NFTA_LIST_ELEM
NFTA_SET_SUBKEY_LEN
...
Just in there's a need for more fields to describe the subkey in the
future, it's just more boilerplate code for the future extensibility.
Another suggestion is to rename NFT_SET_SUBKEY to NFT_SET_CONCAT, to
signal the kernel that userspace wants a datastructure that knows how
to deal with concatenations. Although concatenations can be done by
hashtable already, this flags is just interpreted by the kernel as a
hint on what kind of datastructure would fit better for what is
needed. The combination of the NFT_SET_INTERVAL and the NFT_SET_CONCAT
(if you're fine with the rename, of course) is what will kick in
pipapo to be used.
Attaching sketch for the netlink control plane with the changes I've
been describing above, compile-tested only.
Thanks.
