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

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?

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