type: nest
nested-attributes: action-attrs
doc: |
Nested attributes specifying the actions to take for packets that
match the key. Always present in notifications. Required for
OVS_FLOW_CMD_NEW requests, optional for OVS_FLOW_CMD_SET requests. An
OVS_FLOW_CMD_SET without OVS_FLOW_ATTR_ACTIONS will not modify the
actions. To clear the actions, an OVS_FLOW_ATTR_ACTIONS without any
nested attributes must be given.

be nonzero. Ignored in requests.
-
name: tcp-flags

packets in this flow. Only present in notifications for TCP flows, and
only if it would be nonzero. Ignored in requests.
-
name: used
type: u64
doc: |
A 64-bit integer giving the time, in milliseconds on the system
monotonic clock, at which a packet was last processed for this

this flow. Ignored in requests.
-
name: clear
type: flag
doc: |
If present in a OVS_FLOW_CMD_SET request, clears the last-used time,
accumulated TCP flags, and statistics for this flow. Otherwise
ignored in requests. Never present in notifications.
-
name: mask
type: nest
nested-attributes: key-attrs
doc: |
Nested attributes specifying the mask bits for wildcarded flow
match. Mask bit value '1' specifies exact match with corresponding
flow key bit, while mask bit value '0' specifies a wildcarded
match. Omitting attribute is treated as wildcarding all corresponding
fields. Optional for all requests. If not present, all flow key bits
are exact match bits.
-
name: probe
type: binary
doc: |
Flow operation is a feature probe, error logging should be suppressed.
-
name: ufid
type: binary
doc: |
A value between 1-16 octets specifying a unique identifier for the
flow. Causes the flow to be indexed by this value rather than the
value of the OVS_FLOW_ATTR_KEY attribute. Optional for all
requests. Present in notifications if the flow was created with this
attribute.
