Thank you for this issue. I sent the separate patch
"[PATCH] net: fix *_DIAG_MAX constants", because currently only
INET_DIAG_MAX is correct.

The code in ss looks like you described:
        struct rtattr *tb[UNIX_DIAG_MAX+1];
...
        parse_rtattr(tb, UNIX_DIAG_MAX, (struct rtattr*)(r+1),
                     nlh->nlmsg_len - NLMSG_LENGTH(sizeof(*r)));


        struct rtattr *tb[NETLINK_DIAG_MAX+1];
...
        parse_rtattr(tb, NETLINK_DIAG_MAX, (struct rtattr*)(r+1),
                     nlh->nlmsg_len - NLMSG_LENGTH(sizeof(*r)))

I think I should only update headers... Or I don't understand something.
