no objection on the struct socket change (but i just wonder, if there
are side effects in changing the struct socket, perhaps one might put
the same parameter in the struct tcpcb/udpcb/inpcb ? after all it is
being used by ipfw only).
On the ipfw side, yes i think the switch to locate & check credential
can be simplified by merging the final part (and perhaps even the
in_pcblookup() calls).
cheers
