+.TH CURLOPT_ABSTRACT_UNIX_SOCKET 3 "08 Jan 2017" "libcurl 7.53.0" "curl_easy_setopt options"
+.SH NAME
+CURLOPT_ABSTRACT_UNIX_SOCKET \- set an abstract Unix domain socket
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+#include <curl/curl.h>
+
+CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_ABSTRACT_UNIX_SOCKET, char *path);
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Enables the use of an abstract Unix domain socket instead of establishing a TCP
+connection to a host. The parameter should be a char * to a zero terminated string
+holding the path of the socket. The path will be set to \fIpath\fP prefixed by a
+NULL byte (this is the convention for abstract sockets, however it should be stressed
+that the path passed to this function should not contain a leading NULL).
+
+On non-supporting platforms, the abstract address will be interpreted as an empty
+string and fail gracefully, generating a run-time error.
+
+This option shares the same semantics as
+.BR CURLOPT_UNIX_SOCKET_PATH "(3)
+in which documentation more details can be found. Internally, these two options share
+the same storage and therefore only one of them can be set per handle.
+
+.SH DEFAULT
+Default is NULL.
+.SH EXAMPLE
+.nf
+ curl_easy_setopt(curl_handle, CURLOPT_ABSTRACT_UNIX_SOCKET, "/tmp/foo.sock");
+ curl_easy_setopt(curl_handle, CURLOPT_URL, "http://localhost/");
+.fi
+
+.SH AVAILABILITY
+Since 7.53.0.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
+.SH "SEE ALSO"
+.BR CURLOPT_UNIX_SOCKET_PATH "(3), " unix "(7), "
