The following series gets current master able to build on Fedora 28 + x86_64 using gcc 8.0.1. There were a number of build-breaking problems, mostly around correct string processing but all of them reflecting some issue in the code.
Of the two major issues, one around struct alignment in dpaa I think is properly fixed by the patch 3/18 here, but for the apparently broken hash function cast in 1/18 I just stopped it breaking the build; unless I miss the trick it seems it needs fixing properly after some further discussion. Because of the kind of widespread string processing / off-by-one / buffer overflow issue fixed here, I think it'd be a really good idea to run this stuff through Coverity.
