In this post, i will explain about Unix/Domain Sockets.
Why Unix Sockets are Required?
What is Unix Socket?
Why Unix Sockets are Required?
You might have heard different types of sockets like TCP, UDP, SCTP, RAW etc.
These sockets are useful best for inter communications where IP address and port number (TCP /UDP Header) is most important.
When there are two process let's say X and Y reside in the same system(machine) needs to communicate each other, then which sockets would be the better option?
For the above case, i would prefer to use UNIX sockets rather than TCP/UDP sockets, since there is no over head of TCP/UDP header. Unix Sockets doesn't carry any TCP/UDP header for communication.
What is Unix Socket?
A Unix domain socket is a data communications endpoint for exchanging data between
processes executing within the same host operating system.
While similar
in functionality to named pipes.Unix domain sockets may be created as connection‑mode (SOCK_STREAM or
SOCK_SEQPACKET) or as connectionless (SOCK_DGRAM), while pipes are
streams only.
Processes using Unix domain sockets do not need to share a
common ancestry. The API for Unix domain sockets is similar to that of an Internet socket,
but it does not use an underlying network protocol for communication.
Unix domain sockets use the file system as their address name space. They are referenced by processes as inodes
in the file system. This allows two processes to open the same socket
in order to communicate. However, communication occurs entirely within
the operating system kernel.
In addition to sending data, processes may send file descriptors across a Unix domain socket connection using the
sendmsg() and recvmsg()
system calls.
How to Implement Unix Sockets?
In Unix sockets, the socket API are similar to internet socket.
Unix Socket create using API:
if ((sock_fd = socket(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0)) < 0) {
perror("server: socket");
return -1;
}
/*
* Create the address we will be connecting to.
*/
address.sun_family = AF_UNIX;

perror("server: socket");

Explain With simple example:
Let's take two process x_process (as a client) and y_process(as a server.
x_process have different call back functions and it shall be triggered based on the message type send from the server(y_process).
x_process registers the call back functions for different Message types during initialization time.
Message Types : HELLO_MESSAGE, DOWN_MESSAGE, UPDATE_MESSAGE.
Based on the respective message, the corresponding call back function is called.
