unix-stream, unix-dgram: Sending messages to UNIX domain sockets

The unix-stream() and unix-dgram() drivers send messages to a UNIX domain socket in either SOCK_STREAM or SOCK_DGRAM mode.

Both drivers have a single required argument specifying the name of the socket to connect to. For the list of available optional parameters, see unix-stream() and unix-dgram() destination options.

Declaration:
unix-stream(filename [options]);
unix-dgram(filename [options]);
Example: Using the unix-stream() driver
destination d_unix_stream { unix-stream("/var/run/logs"); };
