Redox continues to make progress, and as another month has passed us by, it’s time for another monthly update. This past month, the focus has been on UNIX domain sockets, which are needed for Redox’ goal of running Wayland.
As we continue to move forward with our plans for Wayland, a key technology for Wayland support is the ability to send file descriptors over Unix Domain Sockets. File descriptor sending is also an important part of many other OS features, including Capability-based Security.
Our Redox Summer of Code project to implement that ability has been progressing very well. Ibuki, a new member of the Redox team, has jumped right into the deep end, and implemented the
↫ Ribbon and Ron Williamssendmgandrecvmsgfunctionality, and continues to move forward with work on UDS.
