i'm far from being a networking expert, so i might be plain
wrong. after having a look at the kernel sources i think it works in
the following way:

struct inet_sock *inet = inet_sk(socket->sk);

the data you are looking for are:

inet->saddr
inet->sport
inet->daddr
inet->dport

btw: for these kind of questions it is better to write to the
kernelnewbies list (kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxx)
