Interesting! The Wikipedia article is quite wrong here. SOCK_STREAM certainly doesn’t imply TCP in all cases. I see the source is the Linux Programming Interface book; quite likely someone’s interpretation of that chapter was just wrong when they wrote this article. It is a subtle topic.

Hey! I know it’s muddled but that’s not quite correct. SOCK_STREAM is more general than TCP; SOCK_STREAM just means the socket is a byte stream. You would need to add IPPROTO_TCP on top of that to pull in the TCP stack.

UDS using SOCK_STREAM does not do that; ie, it is not using IPPROTO_TCP.
