[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 1/1] build: enable BSD features visibility for FreeBSD

[Marcin Smoczynski <marcinx.smoczynski@intel.com>]

When a component uses either XOPEN_SOURCE or POSIX_C_SOURCE macro
explicitly in its build recipe, it restricts visibility of a non POSIX
features subset, such as IANA protocol numbers (IPPROTO_* macros).
Non standard features are enabled by default for DPDK both for Linux
thanks to _GNU_SOURCE and for FreeBSD thanks to __BSD_VISIBLE. However
using XOPEN_SOURCE or POSIX_(C_)SOURCE in a component causes
__BSD_VISIBLE to be defined to 0 for FreeBSD, causing different feature
sets visibility for Linux and FreeBSD. It restricts from using IPPROTO
macros in public headers, such as rte_ip.h, despite the fact they are
already widely used in sources.

Add __BSD_VISIBLE macro specified unconditionally for FreeBSD targets
which enforces feature sets visibility unification between Linux and
FreeBSD.

Add single -D_GNU_SOURCE to config/meson.build as a project argument
instead of adding separate directive for each project subtree.

This patch solves the problem of build breaks for [1] on FreeBSD [2]
following the discussion [3].
