Subject: [PATCH 0/3] UNIX sockets: POSIX conformance of errno's

Hi there,

While comparing the behavior of the Berkeley sockets API different
operating systems, I noticed that in some places we return different
errno's as what POSIX requires and how other systems work, but also what
we document in our own man pages.

This is the first time I'm sending a patch to the Linux kernel, so if
there's anything wrong with the way I submitted these patches, just let
me know.

Thanks,
Ed

  Make listen() on an unbound UNIX socket return EDESTADDRREQ.
  Let open() on a UNIX socket return EOPNOTSUPP.
  Return ENOTCONN when trying to recv() on an unconnected UNIX socket.
