Issue #2965 has been updated by cmusser.

Turns out that the kern.ipc.soconnect_async sysctl flag affects this. When 
disabled, the behavior is similar to the other BSDs: disconnecting a connected 
UDP socket returns EAFNOSUPPORT from connect(2), not read(2). Not sure if the 
soconnect_async flag is supposed to affect UDP sockets, but it does.

Bug #2965: read(2), etc. return EAFNOSUPPORT after UDP disconnect

----------------------------------------
I ran into an unexpected return code from read(2)-like functions after 
unconnecting a connected UDP socket. 

>From what I've gleaned (from Stevens' "UNP", man pages, testing on other 
>systems). unconnecting a connected UDP socket is done by passing a "null 
>address" to connect(2). In response, it unconnects the socket and returns 
>success (0) or EAFNOSUPPORT

On DragonFly, connect(2) returns success and unconnects the socket, but then 
the next read from the socket returns EAFNOSUPPORT. It seems as if EAFNOSUPPORT 
should come from `connect(2) instead. Neither read(2), recvfrom(2) or 
recvmsg(2) are documented as returning EAFNOSUPPORT.

I have a Github project at https://github.com/cmusser/udp_disconnect that 
demonstrates this behavior.
