I thought of this. The condition that must be met in order to
consider an action to be "observability" is:
Its a userspace() action used for IPFIX/sFlow OR
It's a psample() action OR
It's a sample() action that inside has (
psample action OR
userspace action usef for IPFIX/sFlow
)
So, we need to introspect the netlink attributes all the way to the
userspace action's cookie, decode it and look at the type to make sure
it's not, a metered controller action (which uses sample() as well).
The resulting code was a bit ugly with all that instrospection. So I
tried this other way which I think is cleaner and more robust since
actions have to explicitly "opt-in" to be considered observational,
rather than the check happening somewhere else.
Would you prefer the introspection alternative?

That rare corner case is not covered. I guess I can check if the offset
is within the nested actions and adjust it accordingly, i.e: substract
(nl_attr_get(last_action) - dest).

Sure, I don't mind. As long as pointer arithmetics work :-)
