Are we allowed to add a new column to /proc/net/tcp?

From: Ben Greear <hidden>

I'd like to add mss so that we can calculate the window
size (which is cwnd * mss if I understand properly).

If there is another way to get at this information for
arbritrary TCP sockets, I'm interested in that as well.

Thanks,
Ben

"ss" can dump everything, even the full contents of tcp_info
