NAME
sys/un.h - definitions for UNIX domain sockets
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/un.h>
DESCRIPTION
The <sys/un.h> header shall define the sockaddr_un structure that
includes at least the following members:
sa_family_t sun_family Address family.
char sun_path[] Socket pathname.
The sockaddr_un structure is used to store addresses for UNIX domain
sockets. Values of this type shall be cast by applications to struct
sockaddr for use with socket functions.
The sa_family_t type shall be defined as described in <sys/socket.h> .
The following sections are informative.
APPLICATION USAGE
The size of sun_path has intentionally been left undefined. This is
because different implementations use different sizes. For example, 4.3
BSD uses a size of 108, and 4.4 BSD uses a size of 104. Since most
implementations originate from BSD versions, the size is typically in
the range 92 to 108.
Applications should not assume a particular length for sun_path or
assume that it can hold {_POSIX_PATH_MAX} characters (255).
RATIONALE
None.
FUTURE DIRECTIONS
None.
