Eunuchs is a library of Python extensions that complement the standard libraries in parts where full support for the UNIX API (or the Linux API) is missing. . Most of the functions wrapped by Eunuchs are low-level, dirty, but absolutely necessary functions for real systems programming. The aim is to have the functions added to mainstream Python libraries. . Current list of features included: - recvmsg(2) and sendmsg(2), including use of cmsg(3) - socketpair(2) - support for TUN/TAP virtual network interfaces
