It should also include bpf_skc_lookup_tcp(), right?

  From what I see it should not.

cgroup id is available from sk->sk_cgrp_data that is a field of `struct
sock', i.e. `struct sock_common' doesn't have this field.

bpf_skc_lookup_tcp() returns RET_PTR_TO_SOCK_COMMON_OR_NULL and it can
be for example `struct request_sock` that has only `struct sock_common`
member, i.e. it doesn't have cgroup id.

So you can do bpf_skc_lookup_tcp() and then do tcp_sock() to get a full
socket which will have cgroup_id. I think maybe this is the reason you
added bpf_skc_lookup_tcp() in patch #1, right?

If this is the case, maybe rewording a little bit for the description
to include bpf_skc_lookup_tcp() + bpf_tcp_sock() as another input
to bpf_sk_cgroup_id()?

Yeah, this bpf_skc_lookup_tcp() + bpf_tcp_sock() combination should also
return a full socket that can be used with the helper.

bpf_sk_fullsock() is one more way to get it.

I'm not sure it's worth listing all possible ways to get full socket
since it's 1) easy to miss something; 2) easy to forget to update this
list if a new way to get full socket is being added.

What about rephrasing to highlight that it has to be full socket and
**bpf_sk_lookup_xxx**\ () is an example of getting it?

For example:

	*sk* must be a non-**NULL** pointer to full socket, e.g. one
	returned from **bpf_sk_lookup_xxx**\ () or
	**bpf_sk_fullsock**\ ().

Will it be better?

This should be fine. Thanks!
