                is bound to the specified file system path.</p><p><code class="function">sd_is_socket()</code> may be
                called to check whether the specified file descriptor
                refers to a socket. If the
                <em class="parameter"><code>family</code></em> parameter is not
                AF_UNSPEC it is checked whether the socket is of the
                specified family (AF_UNIX, AF_INET, ...). If the

                the <em class="parameter"><code>length</code></em> parameter to 0. For
