You just beat me. I haven't tested any of this beyond compiling it, so
there are probably as many bugs as lines of code, but I figured I'd
throw it out there before I went to bed.
I had a much more complicated design going for a long time then
decided to cut it down as much possible—quite possibly too far.
First, I added a 'method missing' analogue, ProtocolMissing, to
etsn.Server, whose handler gets any connection whose protocol isn't in
its registry.
Second, I added a command
https://github.com/JImmyFrasche/etsn/tree/master/etsnsrv It only
registers a ProtocolMissing handler. Whenever it gets a request it
tries to open a file and if it's a domain socket it sends the fd down
it.
Finally I added another library
https://github.com/JImmyFrasche/etsn/tree/master/etsnunix that
provides a convenient method for registering protocols with etsnsrv(1)
with an interface somewhat like a pared down version of etsn.
Like I said, I just made sure it compiled so it probably doesn't work
right, if at all—and I know there are a few places where it does
outright obviously the wrong thing—but should serve as a sketch, till
I knock the bugs off it and get a better idea of where to tidy it up.
Perhaps the protocol, or lack of one, is too simplistic, but no reason
not to try the simplest possible solution first.
