[ID 20000127.004] Unix Domain sockaddr returned by recv is not acceptable to Socket::unpack_sockaddr_un

[Ben Coleman <oloryn@www.mindspring.com>]

This is a bug report for perl from oloryn@mindspring.com,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.26 running under perl 5.00503.


-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Please enter your report here]

Run this perl program:

-----
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use Socket;

socket(SERVER, AF_UNIX, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);
bind(SERVER, pack_sockaddr_un('/tmp/server'));

$sock_addr = recv(SERVER, $message, 256, 0);
$sock_path = unpack_sockaddr_un($sock_addr);
print "$sock_path\n";
print "$message\n";
-----

and then run this one to send a message to the first:

-----
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use Socket;

socket(CLIENT, AF_UNIX, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);
bind(CLIENT, pack_sockaddr_un('/tmp/client'));

send(CLIENT, 'Test message', 0, pack_sockaddr_un('/tmp/server'));
-----

and the first will die with the message

Bad arg length for Socket::unpack_sockaddr_un, length is 14, should be 110 at udtest.srv line 9.

If Socket::unpack_sockaddr_un is going to expect a 110-byte long Unix Domain 
sockaddr, shouldn't recv be returning one?  Either Socket::unpack_sockaddr_un
or recv needs to be fixed.
