io_socketpair(3)	   Library Functions Manual	      io_socketpair(3)

NAME
       io_socketpair - create a	pair of	sockets

SYNTAX
       #include	<libowfat/io.h>

       int io_socketpair(int64 pfd[2]);

DESCRIPTION
       io_socketpair  creates  a new UNIX socket pair and writes both descrip-
       tors to d.  The socket pair works much like a pipe, but it is  bidirec-
       tional (i.e. both descriptors are for reading and writing).

       io_socketpair  returns  1 to indicate success. If something goes	wrong,
       io_socketpair returns 0,	setting	errno to indicate the error;  in  this
       case  it	frees any memory that it allocated for the new socketpair, and
       it leaves d alone.
