> Subject: [PATCH v4] build: update DPDK to use C11 standard
>
> As previously announced, DPDK 23.11 will require a C11 supporting
> compiler and will use the C11 standard in all builds.
>
> Forcing use of the C standard, rather than the standard with
> GNU extensions, means that some posix definitions which are not in
> the C standard are unavailable by default. We fix this by ensuring
> the correct defines or cflags are passed to the components that
> need them.

By the way, I also see this build failure in RHEL 7:
