Re: shutdown(2)'ing a bound UDP socket

Neither, I think.

It is local to that particular socket.  Like an open plain file, it is
possible to have multiple descriptors referring to a single socket.

In the case at hand, SO_REUSEPORT is allowing the creation of two
distinct sockets on the same address/port, only one of which is subject
to the shutdown().

Yeah, that'd be my question too.  Why not just use one socket with two
descriptors on it and just never read from one of them?
