[PATCH 0/5] Enable unix socket support on Windows
Posted by Bin Meng 1 year, 9 months ago
Support for the unix socket has existed both in BSD and Linux for the
longest time, but not on Windows. Since Windows 10 build 17063 [1],
the native support for the unix socket has came to Windows. Starting
this build, two Win32 processes can use the AF_UNIX address family
over Winsock API to communicate with each other.

Introduce a new build time config option CONFIG_AF_UNIX when the build
host has such a capability, and a run-time check afunix_available() for
Windows host in the QEMU sockets util codes.

What about net/socket.c ?

Also there are many tests using AF_UNIX and this doesn't appear to
have enablede any of them.  I'd at least exepct to see  the sockets
tests-io-channel-socket.c test enabled to prove this functionality
is working.

There are a few other AF_UNIX references in teh code, though many
seems to be Linux specific.

With regards,
Daniel

It looks net/socket.c does not need to adapt.

Enabling qtest to run on Windows is underway but that's a separate
topic. The qtest itself is using unix socket so as long as we can run
qtest on Windows, we should be fine.
I feel this series is independent enough of being a standalone one.

That isn't qtest, that is basic unit tests. I would expect those to
be able to work with this series

Ah, I see. Agreed, will do in v2.

In v2 you might also call RtlGetVersion directly instead of getting the 
address (that is only needed if we want to support old Windows versions 
which don't provide that function).

I can't find a way to directly call RtlGetVersion. This API is
exported by ntdll so we have to do the indirect call via
GetProcAddress.
