On some CentOS/RHEL systems using gcc 8.3.1 to compile dpdk, gcc shows a
warning on every build step saying that -Wformat-nonliteral and
-Wformat-security warnings will be ignored unless -Wformat is
also specified as a compiler flag. When the build is run with -werror
the build will fail due to these warnings.
Exact warning returned:
cc1: error: -Wformat-nonliteral ignored without -Wformat
[-Werror=format-nonliteral]
cc1: error: -Wformat-security ignored without -Wformat
[-Werror=format-security]
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
This patch adds the -Wformat flag to config/meson.build. The warning id
181 has also been suppressed in icc as icc was showing false positives
with -Wformat enabled.
