I wrote a character device driver that allows you to use 
open/close/ioctl/read/write semantics to do IUCV communications. There are a 
couple of source RPMs at https://download.sinenomine.net/fsiucv. Use the -3 
series. Note, they are tied to a kernel level so the spec file would need 
adjusting.

    Thanks Ursula,

    I wasn't clear if this was a call for me to justify what I am trying
    to do, but I thought
    I might mention it.

    > Probably not: Either there is a good idea why to include message_send2way 
into
    the standard socket interface AF_IUCV,

    My use-case is that I want userspace in zLinux to call other other VMs
    over IUCV.
    I would prefer to use a standardized interface to this as much as
    possible as that
    would mean I can release general purpose libraries to do IUCV operations in 
z/VM
    environments.

    E.g. in my case I have already contributed support for opening and 
connecting to
    IUCV sockets in Go. That is now part of the official Go libraries. The
    next step I
    want to do is to be able to do is 2WAY SEND, again preferably in a way
    that allows
    me to craft libraries that other developers can use on a zLinux with a
    new enough
    kernel.
