libinput, seatd and libseat; sockets from accept() can pass descriptors
Alpine's libinput, libseat, seatd, xf86-input-libinput and usbutils join the image, and seatd runs from schinit. libinput lists the keyboard and pointer as an ordinary user, Xorg now drives both through libinput, and a program linked to libseat running as schos opens seat0 through seatd, is handed /dev/input/event0 and reads its name through the descriptor. Two kernel bugs stood in the way, and both would have stopped a Wayland compositor too. The socket connect() queues for a listener was allocated with its domain at zero, so sendmsg refused SCM_RIGHTS on the accepted end: a server could receive descriptors and never send one. And sendmsg treated a control buffer longer than its messages as an error, where Linux takes a following header too short to be one as the end; seatd passes a zeroed CMSG_SPACE array with one descriptor at the front. Found with /proc/strace and a temporary kinfo in sendmsg's EINVAL sites.
