I mean, Once I change the hostname then how will the socket read the new hostname ? Does it require a postgres service restart ?

The host name of the machine?

    On Ubuntu 22.04 install, given:

    srwxrwxrwx  1 postgres postgres    0 Apr 22 14:01 .s.PGSQL.5432=
    -rw-------  1 postgres postgres   68 Apr 22 14:01 .s.PGSQL.5432.lock

    The contents of .s.PGSQL.5432.lock(the file that indicates a Postgres
    instance has a lock on the socket) are:

    862
    /var/lib/postgresql/15/main
    1713795311
    5432
    /var/run/postgresql

    There is no hostname to be changed as you are working with a local
    socket.
