BTW, latest iproute2 ss util has nice information if you add -m :

misc/ss -m dst 192.168.99.2
State      Recv-Q Send-Q      Local Address:Port          Peer Address:Port   
ESTAB      3441896 0            192.168.99.1:44409         192.168.99.2:41197   
	 skmem:(r5035136,rb6291456,t0,tb23080,f1149824,w0,o0)

Here you can see that for 3441896 bytes in TCP queue (payload), 
we have 5035136 bytes in rmem_alloc,
and 6291456 'bytes' in sk_rcvbuf

It lacks the backlog len, I'll send a patch when net-next reopens.
