Long: abstract-unix-socket
Arg: <path>
Help: Connect through an abstract Unix domain socket
Added: 7.53.0
Protocols: HTTP
---
Connect through an abstract Unix domain socket, instead of using the network.
Note: netstat shows the path of an abstract socket prefixed with '@', however
the <path> argument should not have this leading character.
unix_socket: add support for abstract unix domain socket In addition to unix domain sockets, Linux also supports an abstract namespace which is independent of the filesystem. In order to support it, add new CURLOPT_ABSTRACT_UNIX_SOCKET option which uses the same storage as CURLOPT_UNIX_SOCKET_PATH internally, along with a flag to specify abstract socket. On non-supporting platforms, the abstract address will be interpreted as an empty string and fail gracefully. Also add new --abstract-unix-socket tool parameter.
