[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 00/18] Fix build on gcc8 and various bugs

[Andy Green <andy@warmcat.com>]

The following series gets current master able to build
on Fedora 28 + x86_64 using gcc 8.0.1.  There were a
number of build-breaking problems, mostly around correct
string processing but all of them reflecting some issue
in the code.

Of the two major issues, one around struct alignment in
dpaa I think is properly fixed by the patch 3/18 here,
but for the apparently broken hash function cast in 1/18
I just stopped it breaking the build; unless I miss the
trick it seems it needs fixing properly after some
further discussion.

Because of the kind of widespread string processing /
off-by-one / buffer overflow issue fixed here, I think it'd
be a really good idea to run this stuff through Coverity.
