The worst of the name length limitations can be worked around by opening the directory where the socket is to go as a file descriptor, then using /proc/self/fd/<fd>/<basename> as the name of the socket. This technique also works with "connect" and in other contexts where a struct sockaddr is needed. At first glance, it looks like your patches only help with "bind". -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
