            const struct sockaddr * dest_addr, socklet_t dest_addr_len);

DESCRIPTION
       sendto() sends a message  to  another  socket.  It  may  be  used  with

       [EFAULT]       The  message pointed to by msg is not in a valid part of
                      the process address space.

       [EAFNOSUPPORT] The address family is not supported by send().

       [ENAMETOOLONG] The length of sun_path is longer than UNIX_PATH_MAX.

       [ENOENT]       The sun_path is null.
