The unix-stream() and unix-dgram() drivers open an AF_UNIX socket and

start listening on it for messages. The unix-stream() driver is
8-
primarily used on Linux and uses SOCK_STREAM semantics (connection
9-
oriented, no messages are lost), while unix-dgram() is used on BSDs and
10-
uses SOCK_DGRAM semantics: this may result in lost local messages if
