I do mean "flags", yeah. The case I was testing was something like this:

$ tc qdisc replace dev $IFACE parent root handle 100 taprio \
      num_tc 3 \
      map 2 2 1 0 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 \
      queues 1@0 1@1 2@2 \
      base-time $BASE_TIME \
      sched-entry S 01 300000 \
      sched-entry S 02 300000 \
      sched-entry S 04 400000 \
      clockid CLOCK_TAI
