🎀 NAME 🎀

sk_to_full_sk — Access to a full socket

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct sock * sk_to_full_sk (struct sock *sk );

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• sk — pointer to a socket

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So here’s the tea, bestie: SYNACK messages might be attached to request sockets 😭 and some places want to reach the listener in this case. That’s literally the whole point of this helper — it’s giving “access to a full socket” energy 👑
