Subject: [PATCH 1/1] net/unix: Allow Unix sockets to be treated like normal files
From: Jeff Hansen <x@...fhansen.com>
Resent. Is there anything else I need to do for this patch to get reviewed
and/or merged? Any comments by anyone?
This allows Unix sockets to be opened, written, read, and closed, like
normal files. This can be especially handy from, for example, a shell
script that wants to send a short message to a Unix socket, but doesn't
want to and/or cannot create the socket itself.
This will try to open the Unix socket first in SOCK_DGRAM mode, then
SOCK_STREAM mode if that fails.
