/* SUMMARY
/* send file descriptor
/* SYNOPSIS
/* #include <iostuff.h>
/*
/* int unix_send_fd(fd, sendfd)
/* int fd;

/* DESCRIPTION
/* unix_send_fd() sends a file descriptor over the specified
/* UNIX-domain socket.
/*
/* Arguments:
/* .IP fd
/* File descriptor that connects the sending and receiving processes.
/* .IP sendfd
/* The file descriptor to be sent.
/* DIAGNOSTICS
/* unix_send_fd() returns -1 upon failure.

* The CMSG_LEN send/receive workaround was originally developed for
* OpenBSD 3.6 on SPARC64. After the workaround was verified to not break
* Solaris 8 on SPARC64, it was hard-coded with Postfix 2.3 for all
* platforms because of increasing pressure to work on other things. The
* workaround does nothing for 32-bit systems.
*
* The investigation was reopened with Postfix 2.7 because the workaround
* broke with NetBSD 5.0 on 64-bit architectures. This time it was found
* that OpenBSD <= 4.3 on AMD64 and SPARC64 needed the workaround for
* sending only. The following platforms worked with and without the
* workaround: OpenBSD 4.5 on AMD64 and SPARC64, FreeBSD 7.2 on AMD64,
* Solaris 8 on SPARC64, and Linux 2.6-11 on x86_64.
*
* As this appears to have been an OpenBSD-specific problem, we revert to
* the Postfix 2.2 behavior. Instead of hard-coding the workaround for
* all platforms, we now detect sendmsg() errors at run time and turn on
* the workaround dynamically.
*
* The workaround was made run-time configurable to investigate the problem
* on multiple platforms. Though set_unix_pass_fd_fix() is over-kill for
* this specific problem, it is left in place so that it can serve as an
* example of how to add run-time configurable workarounds to Postfix.
