No, but the shared-memory context can contain an index into a table
of socket descriptors in private per-process memory. If the process
trying to server a client context does not actually have a socket
descriptor in the slot for that context, it can ask for one.

Client X has a connection to server worker A. That means that A has

Yes. And if it does not then what?

 Then it asks another process for a copy of that socket descriptor. Perhaps
there is one overall connection-management process that accepts all new
connections; if not, another worker that has that socket can pass it
along.

It should not be a problem of copying a socket descriptor from one
process to another process - I believe it is just an int.
But will it work in the other process????
