We should find an OpenBSD machine to try this on.

Do you have a laptop that can run Virtual Box? (https://www.virtualbox.org/)

That seems like it would be the easiest way to get this done.

We think this is fixed now. Can you test with the latest tar file?

It compiles and runs, but I'm now seeing a different error:

(I ran it once as a regular user with the same result as below)

I did a quick test on an OpenBSD 5.4 / amd64 system, using iperf3 from the
tip of the default branch.

I was able to make this work, both doing tests to localhost and to a
FreeBSD server, without any particular incident. The main issue I saw is
that (as currently configured) I needed to specify -4 on the OpenBSD iperf3
server, or else I got an "Invalid argument" when trying to create the
listening socket. It's entirely possible that there's something in my
OpenBSD VM that isn't configured correctly, particularly since I'm a
completely newbie on OpenBSD (I'm more of a FreeBSD person). This seemed
to have a decent workaround however.

@thepurplebuffalo: With the iperf3 3.0.1 release out the door, would you
be able to test with that code and see if you still see the problem? In
Comment 6 I had it mostly working with pre-release code (and re-tested just
now with post-3.0.1 code).

Compiles, make check looks happy, will not run:

Disregard my last.

I added the "-4" and it worked fine as a daemon. It's also working fine as
a client.

THANKS!

OK, thanks for the report. I added a note to the README about needing -4
on OpenBSD. Closing this as fixed for now, since iperf3 is working with
this small workaround.
