An AF_HVSOCK socket address

val create : unit -> Unix.file_descr

create () creates an unbound AF_HVSOCK socket

val bind : Unix.file_descr -> sockaddr -> unit

bind socket sockaddr binds socket to sockaddr

accept fd accepts a single connection

val connect : ?timeout_ms:int -> Unix.file_descr -> sockaddr -> unit

connect ?timeout_ms fd sockaddr connects to a remote partition. Since the raw socket call can block forever if the server is not running when the call is executed (even if the server starts up afterwards) there is a default timeout of 300ms. On timeout this will raise Unix_error(Unix.ETIMEDOUT)
