This is only for a socket name unfortunately, not for an in-memory socket structure.

    It's the socket name that the mysql client will use to connect to the server. No?

      Sure, but that doesn't help if your plan is to do the (IP-)socket setup yourself.

      If your plan is to spawn an external process which listens to the named (domain-)socket, giving that name to libmysql will help a bit.
