Hmm... Eric the above result show that ALL your UDP packets were dropped!
You have 0 okay messages and 0.00 Mbit/s throughput.

It needs to look like below (test on i40e NIC):

$ netperf -t UDP_STREAM -H fee0:cafe::1
MIGRATED UDP STREAM TEST from ::0 (::) port 0 AF_INET6 to fee0:cafe::1 () port 0 AF_INET6 : histogram : demo
Socket  Message  Elapsed      Messages                
Size    Size     Time         Okay Errors   Throughput
bytes   bytes    secs            #      #   10^6bits/sec

212992   65507   10.00      186385      0    9767.08
212992           10.00      186385           9767.08


If I manually instruct ip6tables to drop all UDP packets, then I get
what you see... so, something on your test system are likely dropping
your UDP packets, but letting regular netperf (TCP) control
communication through.

# ip6tables -I INPUT -p udp -j DROP

$ netperf -t UDP_STREAM -H fee0:cafe::1
MIGRATED UDP STREAM TEST from ::0 (::) port 0 AF_INET6 to fee0:cafe::1 () port 0 AF_INET6 : histogram : demo
Socket  Message  Elapsed      Messages

212992   65507   10.00      182095      0    9542.41
212992           10.00           0              0.00
