What kind of code search did you do for that? could you share your findings? (I don't mind adding this constant if it's that useful though so TiA) |

https://github.com/search?q=setsockopt+IP_FREEBIND+15+language%3APython&type=code You can see lots of different approaches to work around the lack of this constant. I'll make a PR shortly. |

Thanks. Is there something we however need to do in particular with this constant? should we handle it specifically in some contexts? (I don't know) |

No, it's just for passing to setsockopt(). |

Feature or enhancement
Proposal:
The socket options exposed by CPython's socket module do not include
IP_FREEBIND, meaning the option number has to be hardcoded. Examples of this in the wild can be find using GitHub's code search.Has this already been discussed elsewhere?
This is a minor feature, which does not need previous discussion elsewhere
