TCP_Flags match won't work when included with a MAC address in the match fields. I mentioned it to Michal P a couple of months ago and he seemed to have a hunch so Im hoping it is an easy fix. I think I remember him mentioning it is a length issue but time is tight w/ code freeze so Im hoping it is a quick fix as openstack/ODL Sec services are blocked on this one. Marking it major from a perspective of the OVSDB plugin project, feel free to adjust Just upping the pestering as I am blocked until resolved.

Adding the Java API to hopefully help with checking it out. TCP_FLAG requires version 2.1+ of OVS for support. The flowmod does work and install if using the OVS client.

Failed Match Java API:
---------------------

// Ethertype match
EthernetMatchBuilder ethernetType = new EthernetMatchBuilder();
EthernetTypeBuilder ethTypeBuilder = new EthernetTypeBuilder();
ethTypeBuilder.setType(new EtherType(0x0800L));
ethernetType.setEthernetType(ethTypeBuilder.build());
matchBuilder.setEthernetMatch(ethernetType.build());

EthernetMatchBuilder ethernetMatch1 = new EthernetMatchBuilder();
EthernetDestinationBuilder ethDestinationBuilder1 = new EthernetDestinationBuilder();
ethDestinationBuilder1.setAddress(new MacAddress("01:00:00:01:01:01"));
ethernetMatch1.setEthernetDestination(ethDestinationBuilder1.build());
matchBuilder.setEthernetMatch(ethernetMatch1.build());

// TCP Protocol Match
IpMatchBuilder ipMatch = new IpMatchBuilder(); // ipv4 version
ipMatch.setIpProtocol((short) 6);
matchBuilder.setIpMatch(ipMatch.build());

// TCP Port Match
PortNumber dstPort = new PortNumber(80);
TcpMatchBuilder tcpMatch = new TcpMatchBuilder();
tcpMatch.setTcpDestinationPort(dstPort);
matchBuilder.setLayer4Match(tcpMatch.build());

TcpFlagMatchBuilder tcpFlagMatch = new TcpFlagMatchBuilder();
tcpFlagMatch.setTcpFlag(0x002);
matchBuilder.setTcpFlagMatch(tcpFlagMatch.build());

TunnelBuilder tunnelBuilder = new TunnelBuilder();
tunnelBuilder.setTunnelId(new BigInteger("1600"));
matchBuilder.setTunnel(tunnelBuilder.build());

return matchBuilder;

If I drop the Mac Addr match it works:
