Hi Ryan,
DPDK is using coverity static analysis tool [1], you can check defects found by
that tool, this should be easy to start.
Also DPDK started to maintain a "Nice to have - Future" list [2], but current
list can be hard for beginners, still feel free to check them.
Another thing I can think of is improving the unit test coverage [3], which I
believe can help a lot to learn insights of the related code.
btw, DPDK just started using bug tracing tool [4], but currently it is empty
(almost), so won't be so useful for now.
