I kind of carelessly deleted /tmp/.X11-unix/X0. Now the thing is that some programs which had not opened the socket before, can't connect to X.
The simplest solution would be just restart X, but that's too much effort to me.
So I'm wondering, is there a way, kind of like "relink" system call which coule take existing file descriptor (they are still so the fd is there, just unlinked) and link it back to file name?
doing mksock X0 [*], does not do the trick as the fd is different.
[*] /* mksock - make a Unix domain socket */ #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #include <sys/un.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { int sd; struct sockaddr_un sin; if ((sd = socket(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0)) == -1) exit(1); strcpy(sin.sun_path, argv[1]); sin.sun_family = AF_UNIX; if ((bind(sd, &sin, sizeof(sin)) == -1)) exit(1); exit(0); }
