       [ENOTCONN]     The socket is not connected; there is no peer.

       [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().

       [EPIPE]        The socket is shutdown for writing.
