Subject: [PATCH 3/4] alfred: close the listening socket on daemon setup errors
Date: Fri, 31 Jul 2026 09:40:15 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260731-bugfixes-client-v1-3-83d8c7a26421@narfation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260731-bugfixes-client-v1-0-83d8c7a26421@narfation.org>

unix_sock_open_daemon() created the listening unix socket but returned -1
without closing it again when bind(), listen() or the epoll_ctl()
registration failed, leaking the descriptor.

Fixes: 23359bbf72aa ("alfred: initial commit")
