Hi,
 I have opened an enhancement request (23830) with a suggested path that
adds support for the AF_IUCV protocol family:

IUCV is a hypervisor mediated communications method for z/VM guest virtual
machines. Linux on z Systems (aka s390x) has supported this via the use of
AF_IUCV sockets for many years (added to kernel Feb 2007). This suggested
patch adds support to Python 2.7.9 for this socket type. I have built
Python on both s390x and x86_64: both build cleanly and the test added to
test_socket.py runs cleanly on s390x and is skipped on other platforms.

I would like help in improving the patch and making it a candidate for
