        !            32: .SH DESCRIPTION
        !            33: The raw imp socket provides direct access to the
        !            34: .IR imp (4)
        !            35: network interface.  Users send packets through
        !            36: the interface using the 
        !            37: .IR send (2)
        !            38: calls, and receive packets with the
        !            39: .IR recv (2),
        !            40: calls.  All outgoing packets must have an 1822 96-bit
        !            41: leader on the front.  Likewise, packets received
        !            42: by the user will have this leader on the front.  The
        !            43: 1822 leader and the legal values for the various fields
        !            44: are defined in the include file
        !            45: .RI < netimp/if_imp.h >.
        !            46: The raw imp interface automatically installs the length
        !            47: and destination address in the 1822 leader of all
        !            48: outgoing packets; these need not be filled in by the user.
        !            49: .PP
        !            50: If the protocol selected,
        !            51: .IR proto ,
        !            52: is zero,
        !            53: the socket will receive
        !            54: all IMP messages except RFNM and incompletes
        !            55: which are not input data for a kernel protocol.
        !            56: If
        !            57: .I proto
        !            58: is non-zero,
        !            59: only messages for the specified link type will be received.
        !            60: .SH DIAGNOSTICS
        !            61: An operation on a socket may fail with one of the following
        !            62: errors:
        !            63: .TP 15
        !            64: [EISCONN]
        !            65: when trying to establish a connection on a socket which
        !            66: already has one, or when trying to send a datagram with the destination
        !            67: address specified and the socket is already connected;
        !            68: .TP 15
        !            69: [ENOTCONN]
        !            70: when trying to send a datagram, but
        !            71: no destination address is specified, and the socket hasn't been
        !            72: connected;
        !            73: .TP 15
        !            74: [ENOBUFS]
        !            75: when the system runs out of memory for
        !            76: an internal data structure;
        !            77: .TP 15
        !            78: [ENOBUFS]
        !            79: eight messages to the destination host are outstanding,
        !            80: and another eight are already queued for output;
        !            81: .TP 15
        !            82: [EADDRNOTAVAIL]
        !            83: when an attempt is made to create a 
        !            84: socket with a network address for which no network interface
        !            85: exists.
