Opens a raw IP socket of link(<protocol>)(TYPE_PROTOCOL). Depending on option link(pf)(OPTION_PROTOCOL_FAMILY), IP protocol version
4 or 6 is used. It receives one packet from an unspecified peer and may send one or more answer packets to that peer.
This mode is particularly useful with fork option where each arriving packet - from arbitrary peers - is handled by its own sub process.
This allows a behaviour similar to typical UDP based servers like ntpd or

streaming eg. via TCP or SSL does not guarantee to retain packet boundaries and
may thus cause packet loss.

There is a problem because the parent process would find the same packet
again if it calls select()/poll() before the client process reads the

To solve this problem we implement the following mechanism:
The sub process sends a SIGUSR1 when it has read the packet (or a SIGCHLD if
