** [tickets:#2293] base: UnixSocket, multiple issues**
**Status:** accepted
**Milestone:** 5.2.FC
**Created:** Tue Feb 07, 2017 03:19 PM UTC by Anders Widell

Multiple issues have been identified in the UnixSocket class:
* The UnixServerSocket fails if the named already exists in the file system.
* The UnixSocket uses a mutex to protect Open() and Close(), but this is not
enough to make it thread safe. The suggestion is to remove the mutex and let
users protect the instance if needd
* The fd() method is not so useful since it requires a message to be sent or
received before it returns a valid file descriptor. It is probably better if
the fd() method opens the socket if it is not already open.
* The UnixClientSocket implements a wait-loop in case connect() returns
EINPROGRESS. It would be better to us a blocking call to connect().
