Research direction
Start by locating the crate's existing recvmsg support and compare it with the recvmmsg syscall API. Check the platform requirements and intended multi-message behavior before identifying the appropriate API and test locations. Done means socket2 supports receiving multiple messages through recvmmsg with coverage for the new behavior.
