As pointed out in the design discussion, this could be confusing: what if on *NIX I only want to set SO_REUSEPORT but not SO_REUSEADDR?
Is that a a valid *NIX scenario? If yes, is there a way to achieve that somehow?

I'm not sure if that's a valid scenario. It's not one anyone's asking for right now. 😃

The premise of this change is that we have an already-established semantic for ReuseAddress in managed code, and there's more value in this semantic being portable than having the managed socket option names map 1:1 with native socket options. I agree that breaking that 1:1 mapping may be confusing for folks who are specifically targeting Unix socket options, but keeping the 1:1 mapping is also confusing, to those who are trying to get consistent behavior across platforms.

Well I've done a bit of research and found that SO_REUSEPORT seems to be a bit exotic yet useful in extreme load scenarios (i.e. at Google: https://lwn.net/Articles/542629/).
My guess is that no one would ask for this in the near future, since it hasn't been available in .NET Framework so far. However can it hurt to add an option to allow to possibly tweak high performance socket code in special conditions, when you know you're running on *NIX?

EDIT: Here is the original motivation for this feature (source: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=c617f398edd4db2b8567a28e899a88f8f574798d):

The motivating case for so_resuseport in TCP would be something like
a web server binding to port 80 running with multiple threads, where
each thread might have it's own listener socket. This could be done
as an alternative to other models: 1) have one listener thread which
dispatches completed connections to workers. 2) accept on a single
listener socket from multiple threads. In case #1 the listener thread
can easily become the bottleneck with high connection turn-over rate.
In case #2, the proportion of connections accepted per thread tends
to be uneven under high connection load (assuming simple event loop:
while (1) { accept(); process() }, wakeup does not promote fairness
among the sockets. We have seen the disproportion to be as high
as 3:1 ratio between thread accepting most connections and the one
accepting the fewest. With so_reusport the distribution is
uniform.

Nginx uses it as well: https://www.nginx.com/blog/socket-sharding-nginx-release-1-9-1/
And Apache does so too: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/en/mod/mpm_common.html#listencoresbucketsratio

Thanks @christianhuening for the investigation!

Maybe properly supporting this and documenting/adding a new property/method would be a better long-term plan.

However can it hurt to add an option to allow to possibly tweak high performance socket code in special conditions, when you know you're running on *NIX?

Once Socket has its public Handle property added back, this could be done via a P/Invoke that's only invoked when on Unix. That could serve as a stop-gap until such time as it was determined to be important to add .NET APIs for.

Do we have existing tests verifying the roundtripping behavior for SocketOptionName.ReuseAddress with GetSocketOption?

Is there any need to test both IPv4 and IPv6, or is just IPv4 sufficient for this purpose?

What's the expected behavior of these cases on Unix? Should we verify those failures via a test that's Unix-only?

Typically we've used PlatformID.AnyUnix for this rather than ~Windows.
