We have an application that uses almost the same code for TCP and AF_UNIX (SOCK_STREAM). TCP can use TCP_INQ, but AF_UNIX doesn't have it and requires an extra syscall, ioctl(SIOCINQ) or getsockopt(SO_MEMINFO) as an alternative. Let's introduce the generic version of TCP_INQ. If SO_INQ is enabled, recvmsg() will put a cmsg of SCM_INQ that contains the exact value of ioctl(SIOCINQ). The cmsg is also included when msg->msg_get_inq is non-zero to make sockets io_uring-friendly. Note that SOCK_CUSTOM_SOCKOPT is flagged only for SOCK_STREAM to override setsockopt() for SOL_SOCKET. By having the flag in struct unix_sock, instead of struct sock, we can later add SO_INQ support for TCP and reuse tcp_sk(sk)->recvmsg_inq. Note also that supporting custom getsockopt() for SOL_SOCKET will need preparation for other SOCK_CUSTOM_SOCKOPT users (UDP, vsock, MPTCP).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
