One thing that is IMHO strange is the output of sk information 
on 64 bits (x86_64 for example)

# ss -e dst 55.225.18.6
State      Recv-Q Send-Q                                Local Address:Port                                    Peer Address:Port
ESTAB      0      0                                      55.225.18.96:9273                                     55.225.18.6:37405    timer:(keepalive,20min,0) ino:57807651 sk:36e40c80ffff8100

True sk pointer is ffff8100ffff8100, not 36e40c80ffff8100



ss/misc.c

                printf(" sk:%08x", r->id.idiag_cookie[0]);
                if (r->id.idiag_cookie[1] != 0)
                        printf("%08x", r->id.idiag_cookie[1]);

while kernel does :
        r->id.idiag_cookie[0] = (u32)(unsigned long)sk;
        r->id.idiag_cookie[1] = (u32)(((unsigned long)sk >> 31) >> 1);



What do you think of following patch ?

[PATCH] ss: correct display of sk pointer

On 64bit arches, sk pointer was 32/32 reversed.
