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

[Thomas Monjalon]

> > 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].
