DESCRIPTION

14       io_socketpair  creates  a new UNIX socket pair and writes both descrip‐
15       tors to d.  The socket pair works much like a pipe, but it is  bidirec‐
16       tional (i.e. both descriptors are for reading and writing).
17
18       io_socketpair  returns  1 to indicate success. If something goes wrong,
19       io_socketpair returns 0, setting errno to indicate the error;  in  this
20       case  it frees any memory that it allocated for the new socketpair, and
21       it leaves d alone.
