Description:
------------
Mysql Server configured so that you can't use the default socket:
[mysqld]
skip-networking
socket=abcdef

Connecting like isn't possible:

//this is the way it works with libmysql (with patch):
new PDO("mysql:host=.;unix_socket=abcdef") 

//this is the way how it works with mysqlnd (with patch):
//This seems to be very slow (5000ms without networking, while
//libmysql results in 20ms - which is probably a different bug)
new PDO("mysql:host=.;unix_socket=\\\\.\\pipe\\abcdef")

TLDR: The bug is that PDO mysql only checks 
for the unix-specific case of 127.0.0.1
while mysqlnd expects an explicit . for windows named pipes.

Hi,

thanks for the patch. For the functionality it looks plausible, but I think using the "unix_socket" to pass a pipe is misleading. This should be called accordingly like "pipe" and only be available on Windows. But with such a change it'd probably aim master.

Thanks.

It not really is when the mysqlnd driver is expecting it as such:
The variable in mysqlnd.c is explicitly named: "socket_or_pipe"

The whole mysql source tree shows this pattern as using the unix_socket as named pipe under windows.

Yes, internally. But i'm talking about how it's represented to outside, IMHO should be like

new PDO("mysql:host=.;named_pipe=\\\\.\\pipe\\abcdef")

But agreed, better to fix it now as is and maybe rename in master then. I'm going to apply your patch then.

Thanks.
