That's about it.  You can also use stap.  It's on the project
todo list to provide some good stap scripts.

The other thing that is useful for debugging things like this is
the object counting in SCTP (CONFIG_SCTP_DBG_OBJCNT), but it's a
kernel config option so not sure how easily you'd be able to use
it.

The initial commit 45122ca26ced7fae41049326a3797a73f961db2e was
added to 3.8.  In 3.9 we fixed a bug where the association closures
were being delayed too long and were preventing socket rebinding
(commit 8c98653f05534acd1cb07ea4929702a3659177d1).
