Dear all,

After on-and-off development since 2005, I've now merged the UNIX domain
socket locking patch. Special thanks to Kris Kennaway who has been
providing stability testing, performance testing, and general support and
feedback for this project since inception.

Please let me know if you experience any problems with UNIX domain sockets
-- these changes will affect applications that consume UNIX domain sockets
directly, like MySQL and Postfix, as well as consumers of POSIX fifos,
which are implemented using UNIX domain sockets in-kernel.

Thanks,
