IIRC it is supported.
>From tools/regression/sockets/unix_cmsg/README:
For SOCK_DGRAM sockets:
----------------------
[...]
3: Sending cmsgcred, receiving sockcred
Server creates datagram socket and set socket option LOCAL_CREDS
for it. Client sends one message with data and control message with
SOCK_CREDS type to Server. Server should receive one message with
data and control message with SCM_CREDS type followed by struct
sockcred{} and this structure should contain correct information.
