Also I think last_hit_time is by definition time, that the rule was hit. I think you have couple of options: 1. keep last_hit_time but then set it to he time the last packet was seen. In this case the type should be changed to 64 bit. 2. set the name to remaining time - in this case it should show the remaining time. I think that maybe this is worth adding in any case. Since I can see a lot of uses to know how long this flow will age. 3. rename to seconds_since_last_hit What do you think? > + > +/** > * @warning > * @b EXPERIMENTAL: this structure may change without prior notice > * > -- > 1.8.3.1
