ss command from iproute2 package ( http://linux-net.osdl.org/index.php/Iproute2 
)

Problem with /proc/net/tcp is its quadratic time O(N^2) to output N lines...

On a loaded server :

# time ss|wc -l
 145695

real    0m9.383s
user    0m4.656s
sys     0m0.632s

# time netstat -an|wc -l
^C after some minutes .... no way...
real    3m23.825s
user    0m0.744s
sys     3m18.721s

ss state listen

I dont understand this question, I thought your patch already handled this 
(for the txqueue, since rxqueue is already there),  as netstat uses 
/proc/net/tcp (unfortunatly)
