+Listing and destroying aged flow rules
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

+``flow aged`` simply lists aged flow rules be get from api ``rte_flow_get_aged_flows``,
+and ``destroy`` parameter can be used to destroy those flow rules in PMD.

+Listing current aged flow rules::

+      actions age timeout 5 / queue index 0 /  end

+
+Aged Rules are simply list as command ``flow list {port_id}``, but strip the detail rule
+information, all the aged flows are sorted by the longest timeout time. For example, if
+those rules be configured in the same time, ID 2 will be the first aged out rule, the next
+will be ID 3, ID 1, ID 0::
+
+   testpmd> flow aged 0
+   Port 0 total aged flows: 4
+   ID      Group   Prio    Attr
+   2       0       0       i--

+   1       0       0       i--
+   0       0       0       i--
+
+If attach ``destroy`` parameter, the command will destroy all the list aged flow rules.
