In funciton:

static int tcp_v4_init_sock(struct sock *sk)
{
        struct inet_connection_sock *icsk = inet_csk(sk);
        struct tcp_sock *tp = tcp_sk(sk);

        ...
}

Why can struct sock convert to struct tcp_sock?
Yes, 

static struct sock *sk_prot_alloc(struct proto *prot, gfp_t priority,
                int family)
{
        struct sock *sk;

                sk = kmalloc(prot->obj_size, priority);
        ...
}
Although inn the function above, prot->obj_size equals to sizeof(struct
tcp_sock), I still can not understand this type conversion.
