  # Adds an +address+ to the existing listener set.  May be specified more

  # "IP_ADDRESS:PORT" for TCP listeners or a pathname for UNIX domain sockets.
  #
  #   listen 3000 # listen to port 3000 on all TCP interfaces
  #   listen "127.0.0.1:3000"  # listen to port 3000 on the loopback interface
  #   listen "/path/to/.unicorn.sock" # listen on the given Unix domain socket
  #   listen "[::1]:3000" # listen to port 3000 on the IPv6 loopback interface
  #
  # When using Unix domain sockets, be sure:
  # 1) the path matches the one used by nginx
  # 2) uses the same filesystem namespace as the nginx process
  # For systemd users using PrivateTmp=true (for either nginx or unicorn),
  # this means Unix domain sockets must not be placed in /tmp
  #
  # The following options may be specified (but are generally not needed):
  #
  # [:backlog => number of clients]
  #
  #   This is the backlog of the listen() syscall.
  #
  #   Some operating systems allow negative values here to specify the
  #   maximum allowable value.  In most cases, this number is only
  #   recommendation and there are other OS-specific tunables and
  #   variables that can affect this number.  See the listen(2)
  #   syscall documentation of your OS for the exact semantics of
  #   this.
  #
  #   If you are running unicorn on multiple machines, lowering this number
  #   can help your load balancer detect when a machine is overloaded
  #   and give requests to a different machine.
  #
  #   Default: 1024
  #
  #   Note: with the Linux kernel, the net.core.somaxconn sysctl defaults
  #   to 128, capping this value to 128.  Raising the sysctl allows a
  #   larger backlog (which may not be desirable with multiple,
  #   load-balanced machines).
  #
  # [:rcvbuf => bytes, :sndbuf => bytes]
  #
  #   Maximum receive and send buffer sizes (in bytes) of sockets.
  #
  #   These correspond to the SO_RCVBUF and SO_SNDBUF settings which
  #   can be set via the setsockopt(2) syscall.  Some kernels
  #   (e.g. Linux 2.4+) have intelligent auto-tuning mechanisms and
  #   there is no need (and it is sometimes detrimental) to specify them.
  #
  #   See the socket API documentation of your operating system
  #   to determine the exact semantics of these settings and
  #   other operating system-specific knobs where they can be
  #   specified.
  #
  #   Defaults: operating system defaults
  #
  # [:tcp_nodelay => true or false]
  #
  #   Disables Nagle's algorithm on TCP sockets if +true+.
  #
  #   Setting this to +true+ can make streaming responses in Rails 3.1
  #   appear more quickly at the cost of slightly higher bandwidth usage.
  #   The effect of this option is most visible if nginx is not used,
  #   but nginx remains highly recommended with unicorn.
  #
  #   This has no effect on UNIX sockets.
  #
  #   Default: +true+ (Nagle's algorithm disabled) in unicorn
  #   This defaulted to +false+ in unicorn 3.x
  #
  # [:tcp_nopush => true or false]
  #
  #   Enables/disables TCP_CORK in Linux or TCP_NOPUSH in FreeBSD
  #
  #   This prevents partial TCP frames from being sent out and reduces
  #   wakeups in nginx if it is on a different machine.  Since unicorn
  #   is only designed for applications that send the response body
  #   quickly without keepalive, sockets will always be flushed on close
  #   to prevent delays.
  #
  #   This has no effect on UNIX sockets.
  #
  #   Default: +false+
  #   This defaulted to +true+ in unicorn 3.4 - 3.7
  #
  # [:ipv6only => true or false]
  #
  #   This option makes IPv6-capable TCP listeners IPv6-only and unable
  #   to receive IPv4 queries on dual-stack systems.  A separate IPv4-only
  #   listener is required if this is true.
  #
  #   Enabling this option for the IPv6-only listener and having a
  #   separate IPv4 listener is recommended if you wish to support IPv6
  #   on the same TCP port.  Otherwise, the value of \env[\"REMOTE_ADDR\"]
  #   will appear as an ugly IPv4-mapped-IPv6 address for IPv4 clients
  #   (e.g ":ffff:10.0.0.1" instead of just "10.0.0.1").
  #
  #   Default: Operating-system dependent
  #
  # [:reuseport => true or false]
  #
  #   This enables multiple, independently-started unicorn instances to
  #   bind to the same port (as long as all the processes enable this).
  #
  #   This option must be used when unicorn first binds the listen socket.
  #   It cannot be enabled when a socket is inherited via SIGUSR2
  #   (but it will remain on if inherited), and it cannot be enabled
  #   directly via SIGHUP.
  #
  #   Note: there is a chance of connections being dropped if
  #   one of the unicorn instances is stopped while using this.
  #
  #   This is supported on *BSD systems and Linux 3.9 or later.
  #
  #   ref: https://lwn.net/Articles/542629/
  #
  #   Default: false (unset)
  #
  # [:tries => Integer]
  #
  #   Times to retry binding a socket if it is already in use
  #
  #   A negative number indicates we will retry indefinitely, this is
  #   useful for migrations and upgrades when individual workers
  #   are binding to different ports.
  #
  #   Default: 5
  #
  # [:delay => seconds]
  #
  #   Seconds to wait between successive +tries+
  #
  #   Default: 0.5 seconds
  #
  # [:umask => mode]
  #
  #   Sets the file mode creation mask for UNIX sockets.  If specified,
  #   this is usually in octal notation.
  #
  #   Typically UNIX domain sockets are created with more liberal
  #   file permissions than the rest of the application.  By default,
  #   we create UNIX domain sockets to be readable and writable by
  #   all local users to give them the same accessibility as
  #   locally-bound TCP listeners.
  #
  #   This has no effect on TCP listeners.
  #
  #   Default: 0000 (world-read/writable)
  #
  # [:tcp_defer_accept => Integer]
  #
  #   Defer accept() until data is ready (Linux-only)
  #
  #   For Linux 2.6.32 and later, this is the number of retransmits to
  #   defer an accept() for if no data arrives, but the client will
  #   eventually be accepted after the specified number of retransmits
  #   regardless of whether data is ready.
  #
  #   For Linux before 2.6.32, this is a boolean option, and
  #   accepts are _always_ deferred indefinitely if no data arrives.
  #   This is similar to <code>:accept_filter => "dataready"</code>
  #   under FreeBSD.
  #
  #   Specifying +true+ is synonymous for the default value(s) below,
  #   and +false+ or +nil+ is synonymous for a value of zero.
  #
  #   A value of +1+ is a good optimization for local networks
  #   and trusted clients.  There is no good reason to ever
  #   disable this with a +zero+ value with unicorn.
  #
  #   Default: 1
  #
  # [:accept_filter => String]
  #
  #   defer accept() until data is ready (FreeBSD-only)
  #
  #   This enables either the "dataready" or (default) "httpready"
  #   accept() filter under FreeBSD.  This is intended as an
  #   optimization to reduce context switches with common GET/HEAD
  #   requests.
  #
  #   There is no good reason to change from the default.
  #
  #   Default: "httpready"
