Many commonly used programs such as 12 the X Window system and syslog use these sockets even if your 13 machine is not connected to any network. Unless you are working on 14 an embedded system or something similar, you therefore definitely 15 want to say Y here. 16 17 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be 18 called unix. Note that several important services won't work 19 correctly if you say M here and then neglect to load the module. 20 21 Say Y unless you know what you are doing. 22 23config UNIX_SCM 24 bool 25 depends on UNIX 26 default y 27 28config UNIX_DIAG 29 tristate "UNIX: socket monitoring interface" 30 depends on UNIX 31 default n 32 help 33 Support for UNIX socket monitoring interface used by the ss tool. 34 If unsure, say Y. 35
