Make ss aware of the new "bound-inactive" pseudo-state for TCP (see
Linux commit 91051f003948 ("tcp: Dump bound-only sockets in inet_diag.")).
These are TCP sockets that have been bound, but are neither listening nor
connecting.

With this patch, these sockets can now be dumped with:

  * the existing -a (--all) option, to dump all sockets, including
    bound-inactive ones,

  * the new -B (--bound-inactive) option, to dump them exclusively,

  * the new "bound-inactive" state, to be used in a STATE-FILTER.

The SS_NEW_SYN_RECV pseudo-state is added in this patch only for code
consistency, so that SS_BOUND_INACTIVE gets assigned the right value
without manual assignment.

Note that the SS_BOUND_INACTIVE state is a pseudo-state used for queries
only. The kernel returns them as SS_CLOSE.

I think this is bit confusing as TCP_NEW_SYN_RECV is usually
invisible from user.

TCP_NEW_SYN_RECV was originally split from TCP_SYN_RECV for a
non-{TFO,cross-SYN} request.

So, both get_openreq4() (/proc/net/tcp) and inet_req_diag_fill()
(inet_diag) maps TCP_NEW_SYN_RECV to TCP_SYN_RECV.

I prefer explicitly assigning a number to SS_BOUND_INACTIVE.

If we need to define SS_NEW_SYN_RECV, I prefer not setting
it or setting "" or "SYN-RECV".

Same here.

Thanks!

I think we need to explicitely set SS_NEW_SYN_RECV anyway, because we
have to set its entry in the sstate_namel array in scan_state().

But I can add a comment like this:

I originally considered the string wasn't important as the kernel isn't
supposed to return this value. But I agree we can do better.

I don't really like "SYN-RECV" though, as I find it even more confusing.
I'd prefer your other proposal using "", or maybe "UNDEF", together with
a comment saying something like "Never returned by kernel".

> > +		[SS_BOUND_INACTIVE] = "BOUND-INACTIVE",

And whatever we decide for SS_NEW_SYN_RECV, we can apply the same to
SS_BOUND_INACTIVE, since the kernel isn't supposed set this state on
output too.

So we'd have something like:

Well, here, whatever we do, the string associated with SS_NEW_SYN_RECV
will be usable by the user. So I'd prefer to have a specific and
unambiguous string and then explicitly refuse it.

What do you think of something like the following?

this is internal to the ss command; explicit value is not relevant.
