[ovs-discuss] ovs-vswitchd bridge datapath_type netdev doesn't work with ovs-ofctl (br0 is not a bridge or a socket)

I'm trying to configure a flow between a DPDK port and a VM virtio port.
Following instructions here:
https://github.com/openvswitch/ovs/blob/master/INSTALL.DPDK
I created br0 bridge, set dapapath_type to "netdev", added dpdk0 and dpdk1
ports and created a virsh host with the following configuration:
<interface type='bridge'>
<mac address='52:54:00:95:af:b8'/>
<source bridge='br0'/>
<virtualport type='openvswitch'>
<parameters interfaceid='d45aa931-1d3e-4c32-be8c-5091f1cb6134'/>
</virtualport>
<model type='rtl8139'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x05'
function='0x0'/>
</interface>
As expected, this creates bridge br0 and ports vnet1, dpdk0 and dpdk1.
But when trying to configure a flow between vnet and dpdk ports ovs-ofctl
fails with:
"br0 is not a bridge or a socket"
A quick investigation reveals the problem appears when br0 bridge
datapath_type is changed to "netdev". Somehow
/usr/local/var/run/openvswitch/br0.mgmt socket is removed and ovs-ofctl
can't find the bridge. ovs-vsctl is probably using another mechanism to list
bridge information because it works when ovs-ofctl doesn't.
Simplified steps to reproduce and corresponding output of ovs-vswitchd
(commands executed as root).

Is this a configuration issue?
