- _B_i_n_d assigns a name to an unnamed socket. When a socket is
- created with _s_o_c_k_e_t(2) it exists in a name space (address
- family) but has no name assigned. _B_i_n_d requests that _n_a_m_e
- be assigned to the socket.
-
- NNOOTTEESS
- Binding a name in the UNIX domain creates a socket in the
- file system that must be deleted by the caller when it is no
- longer needed (using _u_n_l_i_n_k(2)).
-
- The rules used in name binding vary between communication
- domains. Consult the manual entries in section 4 for
- detailed information.

- If the bind is successful, a 0 value is returned. A return
- value of -1 indicates an error, which is further specified
- in the global _e_r_r_n_o.
