Do you need it for both TCP and UDP?
I was thinking about this hook earlier but since in my case only TCP was
needed I ended up using TCP-BPF. E.g. be BPF_SOCK_OPS_TCP_LISTEN_CB or
BPF_SOCK_OPS_TCP_CONNECT_CB can be used instead of POST{4,6}_BIND to
enable something, and then BPF_SOCK_OPS_STATE_CB can be used instead of
SOCK_RELEASE to disable that something when socket transisions to
BPF_TCP_CLOSE (e.g. BPF_TCP_LISTEN -> BPF_TCP_CLOSE).
That turned out to be much cleaner than POST{4,6}_BIND and also works
fine when socket is disconnected with AF_UNSPEC and then connected again
(what Eric mentioned).
