Summary
Adds WASIX WITX ABI definitions for
sock_send_msgandsock_recv_msg.These syscalls model the WASIX side of POSIX
sendmsg()/recvmsg()using:This also adds the minimal WASIX control-message ABI shape needed for future ancillary data support:
sock_cmsgsock_cmsg_levelsock_cmsg_typeSOCKETcontrol-message levelRIGHTScontrol-message type, corresponding to POSIXSCM_RIGHTSMotivation
libuvand Node-style runtimes usesendmsg()/recvmsg()for IPC paths, especially socketpair-based communication and file-descriptor passing. WASIX did not have ABI-level operations that could represent these calls, which forced libc/runtime layers either to avoid the POSIX path or to use incomplete workarounds.This WITX change gives
wasix-libca proper ABI target for POSIX-compatiblesendmsg()/recvmsg()wrappers, and gives Wasmer a runtime syscall surface where payload transfer works now and ancillary/control-message handling can be implemented cleanly next.Related implementation work lives in the matching
wasix-libcand Wasmer PRs.
