On macOS, private $TMPDIR's are the default. These $TMPDIR's are
generated from a user's unix UID and UUID [1], which can create a
relatively long path:
/var/folders/d7/rz20f6hd709c1ty8f6_6y_z40000gn/T/
QEMU's avocado tests create a temporary directory prefixed by
"avo_qemu_sock_", and create QMP sockets within _that_ as well.
The QMP socket is unnecessarily long, because a temporary directory
is created for every QEMUMachine object.
/avo_qemu_sock_uh3w_dgc/qemu-37331-10bacf110-monitor.sock
The path limit for unix sockets on macOS is 104: [2]
/*
* [XSI] Definitions for UNIX IPC domain.
*/
struct sockaddr_un {
unsigned char sun_len; /* sockaddr len including null */
sa_family_t sun_family; /* [XSI] AF_UNIX */
char sun_path[104]; /* [XSI] path name (gag) */
};
This results in avocado tests failing on macOS because the QMP unix
socket can't be created, because the path is too long:
ERROR| Failed to establish connection: OSError: AF_UNIX path too long
This change resolves by reducing the size of the socket directory prefix
and the suffix on the QMP and console socket names.
The result is paths like this:
pdel@pdel-mbp:/var/folders/d7/rz20f6hd709c1ty8f6_6y_z40000gn/T
