patch 'net/thunderx/base: fix build with GCC 15' has been queued to stable release 24.11.2

[Kevin Traynor <ktraynor@redhat.com>]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 24.11.2

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 02/17/25. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the
patch applied to the branch. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.

Queued patches are on a temporary branch at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable/commit/ee7a18ee163429aeaf0a78b627c5274ff01be11d

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] net/thunderx/base: fix build with GCC 15
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

[ upstream commit e7133f8fb39f506dc1eef02c2927acda949ca000 ]

Gcc 15 now produces warning with the base code of Thunderx driver.
The issue is that Gcc now defaults to C23 mode, and the standards
gods have decided that the result of partial initialization of a union
is not defined for other fields.

The fix is to use an empty initializer which forces full initialization.
