Vppctl uses a unix socket, yes, but it’s exactly the same as the TCP socket version of the CLI – it runs the TELNET protocol and does terminal-like IO with unstructured intended-for-humans content. There’s nothing special about it.

Socket fd APIs like producer_event_fd etc are there but, I am not sure if they are any use. Please confirm if there is any other way to use VAT API?
