Detailed Description

This \link{GSocketControlMessage} contains a list of file descriptors. It may be sent using gSocketSendMessage and received using gSocketReceiveMessage over UNIX sockets (ie: sockets in the G_SOCKET_ADDRESS_UNIX family).

For an easier way to send and receive file descriptors over stream-oriented UNIX sockets, see gUnixConnectionSendFd() and gUnixConnectionReceiveFd().
