Dave Barr 91e836093c - Standardize the Unix acronym. Unix is the preferred capitalization
as UNIX is a registered trademark by the Open Group. References to UNIX
  were left in where it made sense, like example outputs, and so forth.
  You can read the Trademark User Guide for "UNIX" at:
  http://www.unix.org/tmug2.ps or http://www.unix.org/tmug2.pdf

<para>
If the given socket is of type <constant>AF_INET</constant>
or <constant>AF_INET6</constant>, <function>socket_getsockname</function>
will return the local <emphasis>IP address</emphasis> in appropriate notation (e.g.
<literal>127.0.0.1</literal> or <literal>fe80::1</literal>) in the
<parameter>address</parameter> parameter and, if the optional
<parameter>port</parameter> parameter is present, also the associated port.
</para>
<para>
If the given socket is of type <constant>AF_UNIX</constant>,
<function>socket_getsockname</function> will return the Unix filesystem
path (e.g. <literal>/var/run/daemon.sock</literal>) in the
<parameter>address</parameter> parameter.
</para>
<note>
<simpara>
<function>socket_getsockname</function> should not be used with
<constant>AF_UNIX</constant> sockets created with <function>socket_connect</function>.
Only sockets created with <function>socket_accept</function> or a primary
server socket following a call to <function>socket_bind</function> will return
meaningful values.
</simpara>
</note>
<para>
&return.success; <function>socket_getsockname</function> may also return
&false; if the socket type is not any of <constant>AF_INET</constant>,
<constant>AF_INET6</constant>, or <constant>AF_UNIX</constant>, in which
case the last socket error code is <emphasis>not</emphasis> updated.
