Hello,
When I use ovs-ofctl on OVS 2.10.1, it failed occasionally by error: ovs-ofctl: br0: failed to connect to socket (Broken pipe) This error is possible to be reproduced with: # while :; do /opt/nec/pf/ds/bin/ovs-ofctl --timeout=5 dump-flows br0 > /tmp/log || break; done; cat /tmp/log ovs-ofctl: br0: failed to connect to socket (Broken pipe) Also I tried with OVS 2.4.1 and could not reproduce this error. I think that recently rconn.c was modified on commit 476d2551abd2871696a64203f78d658ac2d7f32c and the connection for ofctl was changed it begins on state S_CONNECTING instead of S_ACTIVE. So timeout_CONNECTING will be applied for ofctl connection, however timeout_CONNECTING is 1 and this is too short (e.g. if transition time of CONNCTING was 12:00:00.999, it will be timed out after 1ms). I think that this is cause of occasionally disconnection of ofctl.
