gcc 11 with '-O2' complains about some variables being used without being initialized: In function ‘start_flow_avx512x8’, inlined from ‘search_trie_avx512x8.constprop’ at acl_run_avx512_common.h:317: lib/librte_acl/acl_run_avx512_common.h:210:13: warning: ‘pdata’ is used uninitialized [-Wuninitialized] In function ‘search_trie_avx512x8.constprop’: lib/librte_acl/acl_run_avx512_common.h:314:32: note: ‘pdata’ declared here ... Indeed, these variables are not explicitly initialized, but this is done intentionally. We rely on constant mask value that we pass to start_flow*() functions as a parameter to mask out uninitialized values. Note that '-O3' doesn't produce this warning. Anyway, to support clean build with gcc-11 this patch adds explicit initialization for these variables. I checked the output binary: with '-O3' both clang and gcc 10/11 generate no extra code for it. Also performance test didn't reveal any regressions.
