Not sure what this is used for, but does it really need to be in /tmp?
It is the shared socket between a debug client (ie. Mesa) and the debugger. I don't care where it goes, do you have any recommendations?
Somewhere under $HOME is probably better than a predictable file name in /tmp.
$HOME is not great because it requires a little hackery to accomplish. The debugger will be running as root, and so if we put it in root's $HOME, mesa may not be able to reach it.
Ah, I didn't realise this would run as root. Would /run (or /var/run) be ok then? Alternately, use an abstract domain socket to not have to care about the underlying filesystem.
