silence following (correct but harmless) warnings:
bridge/icmpX.t: WARNING: line: 6: 'src/nft add rule --debug=netlink bridge test-bridge input icmp type echo-request': 'icmp type echo-request' mismatches 'ether type ip icmp type echo-request'
bridge/icmpX.t: WARNING: line: 8: 'src/nft add rule --debug=netlink bridge test-bridge input icmpv6 type echo-request': 'icmpv6 type echo-request' mismatches 'ether type ip6 icmpv6 type echo-request'
inet/icmpX.t: WARNING: line: 6: 'src/nft add rule --debug=netlink inet test-inet input icmp type echo-request': 'icmp type echo-request' mismatches 'meta nfproto ipv4 icmp type echo-request'
inet/icmpX.t: WARNING: line: 8: 'src/nft add rule --debug=netlink inet test-inet input icmpv6 type echo-request': 'icmpv6 type echo-request' mismatches 'meta nfproto ipv6 icmpv6 type echo-request'

in all of these cases, we *could* remove the dependency, it can
be correctly re-built using icmp/icmpv6.

However, at this time, nft dependency removal does not have the needed
information to do this correctly.  In order to remove the ll dependency
(ether type, meta nfproto) we would need to know if the layer 4 protocol
is icmp (implies ipv4) or icmpv6 (implies ipv6).

Access to the next expression (meta l4proto) is NOT enough, for example:
ether type ip meta l4proto tcp

does not imply ip, we would need access to the rhs (the layer 4
protocol number) to know if the layer 2 check is (was) implied by another
statement later on.

To do that we would need two passes over a rule, or we would need to
track dependencies per-base.

So for now just accept that we don't handle it.

Hm, I'm not hitting this here, probably there's a bug in test
infrastructure.

I read a couple of times your description above and I must be
overlooking anything.

To me, "icmp type echo-request" in bridge/inet/netdev should result in
two implicit dependencies, so this ends up looking like this:

1) check for IPv4, then...
2) check for ICMP in iph->protocol, then...
3) check for ICMP type.

This would be the default reasonable behaviour.

Then, we have to deal with specific corner cases, where we should
cancel dependencies.

Am I missing anything?

The test case is new, most likely git pull will help.

Sorry, I overlooked this on my first reply.

Your assesment is correct, that is indeed the default reasonable
behaviour, but, when removing, we have limited information on
the rule at the moment.

So this is really:

1) check for IPv4, then...
2) check for some l4 protocol

... from a dependency removal perspective.
and 2) doesn't provide enough information to decide if the dependency
is needed or not.

We probably need to make an initial pass of the entire rule, populate
context, then kill these dependencies once we have a global view on
what is being expressed there. Make sense to you?

Yes, unfortunately I won't have time to work on that anytime soon.
