Daniel,

I did some  experiment on  AF_UNIX support in eCos. I   have a  strange prob.

int s = socket(AF_LOCAL, SOCK_DGRAM, 0 );
sleep(120);
int k = socket(AF_LOCAL, SOCK_DGRAM, 0 );

The first socket system call fails with  errno 325( protocol not
supported ). but second socket() call succeed . But, AF_INET socket is
created without any error.

http://www.ecoscentric.com/ecospro/doc.cgi/html/ref/net-common-tcpip-manpages-socket.html
  mentions support of AF_LOCAL. But in ecos-3.0,
packages/net/snmp/lib/v3_0/src/snmp_api.c : 165  says "no support for
local sockets ".

If anybody has some clue, greatly appreciated.

Local sockets, which are normally implemented using named pipes,
are not supported in eCos.
