[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/1] Support abstract socket namespace in AF_UNIX socket family.

[Alexander Barabash]

The abstract socket namespace is a nonportable Linux extension.
The sockets' names in this namespace have no connection
with file system pathnames. To specify a named AF_UNIX socket
in the abstract socket namespace, start the socket's path option
with a backslash followed by zero: \0.
