[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] librte_cmdline: FreeBSD Fix oveflow when size of command result structure is greater than BUFSIZ

When using test-pmd with flow director in FreeBSD, the application will
segfault/Bus error while parsing the command-line. This is due to how
each commands result structure is represented during parsing, where the offsets
for each tokens value is stored in a character array(char result_buf[BUFSIZ])
in cmdline_parse()(./lib/librte_cmdline/cmdline_parse.c).
The overflow occurs where BUFSIZ is less than the size of a commands result
structure, in this case "struct cmd_pkt_filter_result"
(app/test-pmd/cmdline.c) is 1088 bytes and BUFSIZ on FreeBSD is 1024 bytes as
opposed to 8192 bytes on Linux.
This patch removes the OS dependency on BUFSIZ and defines and uses a
library #define CMDLINE_PARSE_RESULT_BUFSIZE 8192
The problem can be reproduced by running test-pmd on FreeBSD:
./testpmd -c 0x3 -n 4 -- -i --portmask=0x3 --pkt-filter-mode=perfect
And adding a filter:
add_perfect_filter 0 udp src 192.168.0.0 1024 dst 192.168.0.0 1024 flexbytes
0x800 vlan 0 queue 0 soft 0x17
