Sounds like something trying to be just a little bit pregnant.

Thankfully, I'm only munging the getaddrinfo() data for the local endpoint.


See bug https://bugs.openfabrics.org//show_bug.cgi?id=294, I agree
connect() and bind() should allow AF_INET_SDP.

I was poking around - it would be nice if they could take AF_INET_SDP - I have to wonder if IPPROTO_SDP is actually better, but seeing there has been some discussion there (but not having read all of it) I'm just going to go with the flow...

About the "direct" SDP tests, instead of copy/pasting the TCP code, how
about if you just had a command-line argument that specified SDP, like
you do with neterver -6 to specify IPv6 instead of IPv4?

Well, that could then require I start adding some backflips in "common" code such as where I call getaddrinfo(). Besides, I've already finished the first set of cut and paste :)

Speaking of IPv6, does netperf work with IPv6 on Linux?

Yes, although "Linux" seems to have some issue with link-scope addresses.
