35 .Nd assign a local protocol address to a socket
44 .Fn bindat "int fd" "int s" "const struct sockaddr *addr" "socklen_t addrlen"
48 system call assigns the local protocol address to a socket.
49 It works just like the
51 system call with two exceptions:
53 .Bl -enum -offset indent -compact
55 It is limited to sockets in the PF_LOCAL domain.
58 If the file path stored in the
60 field of the sockaddr_un structure is a relative path, it is located relative
61 to the directory associated with the file descriptor
65 is passed the special value
69 parameter, the current working directory is used and the behavior is identical
78 system call may fail with the same errors as the
80 system call for a UNIX domain socket or with the following errors:
85 field does not specify an absolute path and the
89 nor a valid file descriptor.
93 field is not an absolute path and
97 nor a file descriptor associated with a directory.
