@asomers I think this just needs to be squashed; I'm happy with the changes. |
The SockAddr enum is quite large, and the user must allocate space for the whole thing even though he usually knows what type he needs. Furthermore, thanks to the sa_family field, the sockaddr types are basically an enum even in C. So replace the ungainly enum with a SockaddrLike trait implemented by all sockaddr types and a SockaddrStorage union that has safe accessors. Also, deprecate InetAddr, which only existed to support SockAddr. Supplants nix-rust#1504 Fixes nix-rust#1544
