I have been packaging MariaDB 10.4 for the OmniOS operating system, which is a distribution of illumos (née OpenSolaris), and wanted to enable support for the
auth_socket
plugin.illumos has
getpeerucred()
and so here's a patch to make auth_socket work on illumos platforms.(It may also allow it to work on Solaris, which also has getpeerucred(), but I have not tested)
