NAME

un- definitions for UNIX-domain sockets

SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/un.h>

DESCRIPTION

The <sys/un.h> header defines the sockaddr_un structure that includes 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 must be cast to struct sockaddr for use with the socket interfaces.

The <sys/un.h> header defines the type sa_family_t as described in socket(5).
