This was done for the\nsake of BPF sk_skb programs. There was no indention to support sk_msg\nsend-to-egress use case.\n\nAs a result, attempts to send-to-egress through a non-TCP socket lead to a\ncrash due to invalid downcast from sock to tcp_sock:\n\n BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 000000000000002f\n ...\n Call Trace:\n  <TASK>\n  ? show_regs+0x60/0x70\n  ? __die+0x1f/0x70\n  ? page_fault_oops+0x80/0x160\n  ? do_user_addr_fault+0x2d7/0x800\n  ? rcu_is_watching+0x11/0x50\n  ? exc_page_fault+0x70/0x1c0\n  ? asm_exc_page_fault+0x27/0x30\n  ? tcp_tso_segs+0x14/0xa0\n  tcp_write_xmit+0x67/0xce0\n  __tcp_push_pending_frames+0x32/0xf0\n  tcp_push+0x107/0x140\n  tcp_sendmsg_locked+0x99f/0xbb0\n  tcp_bpf_push+0x19d/0x3a0\n  tcp_bpf_sendmsg_redir+0x55/0xd0\n  tcp_bpf_send_verdict+0x407/0x550\n  tcp_bpf_sendmsg+0x1a1/0x390\n  inet_sendmsg+0x6a/0x70\n  sock_sendmsg+0x9d/0xc0\n  ? sockfd_lookup_light+0x12/0x80\n  __sys_sendto+0x10e/0x160\n  ? syscall_enter_from_user_mode+0x20/0x60\n  ? __this_cpu_preempt_check+0x13/0x20\n  ? lockdep_hardirqs_on+0x82/0x110\n  __x64_sys_sendto+0x1f/0x30\n  do_syscall_64+0x38/0x90\n  entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd\n\nReject selecting a non-TCP sockets as redirect target from a BPF sk_msg\nprogram to prevent the crash.
