Hi!

I hope this is the right place to reports bugs. I apologize if it isn't.

I have written a C program (see below for source code) that opens a raw socket on CentOS 7.1 Linux and binds it to some address (it doesn't use the port that I supplied, but that is not the point here). The "netstat" program correctly recognizes the socket as "raw", while "ss" program says it is "udp". Here are the relevant lines from the ss and netstat commands:

$ netstat -an
raw        0      0 127.0.0.1:6             0.0.0.0:* 7

$ ./ss -an
udp    UNCONN     21569  0      127.0.0.1:6 *:*

Here is the version information

$ netstat --version  # From CentOS 7.1.
net-tools 2.10-alpha

$ ./ss --version  # Built from git.
ss utility, iproute2-ss150626


C source follows. If you store it in "main.c", then compile it with "$ gcc main.c -o main" and then run it by executing "$ sudo ./main".

#include <arpa/inet.h>
#include <assert.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>


int main(void)
{
    // Create a raw socket.
    int sock = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_RAW, IPPROTO_TCP);
    if (sock == -1) { perror(NULL); goto exc_cleanup; }

    // Bind socket to an address.
    struct sockaddr_in addr;
    addr.sin_family = AF_INET;
    inet_pton(AF_INET, "127.0.0.1", &addr.sin_addr);
    addr.sin_port = htons(27183);

    int rc = bind(sock, (struct sockaddr*)&addr, sizeof(addr));
    if (rc != 0) { perror(NULL); goto exc_cleanup; }

    // Wait until user presses <ENTER>.
    printf("\nPress <ENTER> to quit the program.\n");
    getchar();

exc_cleanup:
    assert(!close(sock));
}


Best regards,
Miha
