It may well be a ss bug / problem. As I mentioned I am always seeing 255 for the protocol which
It is rather not addressed in ss. I mean, look, when we send out a diag packet
the kernel look ups for a handler, which for raw protocol we register as

static const struct inet_diag_handler raw_diag_handler = {
	.dump= raw_diag_dump,
	.dump_one= raw_diag_dump_one,
	.idiag_get_info= raw_diag_get_info,
	.idiag_type= IPPROTO_RAW,
	.idiag_info_size= 0,
#ifdef CONFIG_INET_DIAG_DESTROY
	.destroy= raw_diag_destroy,
#endif
};

so if we patch ss and ask for IPPROTO_ICMP in netlink packet the
kernel simply won't find anything. Thus I think we need (well, I need)
to extend the patch and register IPPROTO_ICMP diag type, then
extend ss as well. (If only I didn't miss somethin obvious).

is odd since ss does a dump and takes the matches and invokes the kill.
Thanks for taking the time to do the kill piece.
Sorry for delay in reply (I got flu unexpectedly). You know, it eventually
become uneasy to implement handling for sock-raw because they are special.
They described as ipproto-ip in net/ipv4/af_inet.c, so it matches any
protocol specified with the socket call. In turn inet-diag module handled
predefined protocols only, in particular IPPROTO_RAW in our case. Thus
to fecth some real protocol sitting in raw sockets hashes we need some
kind of additional argument passed in the request. I guess we may
use @idiag_ext field for this sake? Or require @idiag_ext to have
INET_DIAG_PROTOCOL bit set and then fetch real protocol from
additional attribute? Sounds ok?
Something like

and in raw-diag module we will use @sdiag_raw_protocol instead of
@sdiag_protocol field. Didn't cover ss tool source code yet but
I think the idea is seen. Still not sure if start using @pad here
is a good idea (it's uapi), maybe beter to ask nla attribute which would
come right afterh the inet_diag_req_v2 message?
