Changes of the sock struct in Linux kernel 2.6?

In Linux kernel 2.4.18, the network layer representation of the socket which is the sock struct has fields such as saddr, sport, daddr, dport, which represent the source and destination IP address (port). However, in kernel 2.6.18 these fields have been removed. I am trying to modify a module based on 2.4.18 kernel, does anyone know where these fields are saved in the networking stack?

I think you need to cast your struct sock to a struct inet_sock...

struct inet_sock *inet;
inet = inet_sk(sock);
inet->daddr, inet->dport, etc.
