For example, 4.3 BSD uses a size of 108, and 4.4 BSD uses a +size of 104. Since most implementations originate from BSD +versions, the size is typically in the range 92 to 108. +.LP +Applications should not assume a particular length for \fIsun_path\fP +or assume that it can hold {_POSIX_PATH_MAX} characters +(255). +.SH RATIONALE +.LP +None. +.SH FUTURE DIRECTIONS +.LP +None. +.SH SEE ALSO +.LP +\fI<sys/socket.h>\fP , the System Interfaces volume of +IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001, \fIbind\fP(), \fIsocket\fP(), \fIsocketpair\fP() +.SH COPYRIGHT +Portions of this text are reprinted and reproduced in electronic form +from IEEE Std 1003.1, 2003 Edition, Standard for Information Technology +-- Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX), The Open Group Base +Specifications Issue 6, Copyright (C) 2001-2003 by the Institute of +Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc and The Open Group.
