cppcheck 2.12 (which Fedora 38 has updated, for one) introduces a
number of new warnings.  Unfortunately, at least one of these is a
clear bug in cppcheck.

This series fixes a number of the new warnings reported in passt
(patches 1..3) and works around the remaining cppcheck bug (patch 4).
I'm pretty confident that patches 1 & 2 are safe and beneficial to
apply regardless of which cppcheck we're using.

Patch 3 is a little more dubious, because it potentially increases the
cppcheck runtime.  On my system it doesn't seem to make a significant
difference, but that might not always stay true.

Patch 4 is a tricky one.  It applies a specific suppression to work
around the cppcheck bug.  That's necessary to get a pass with the
currently available cppcheck.  However, it's ugly and we'd like to
remove it once the bug is fixed, but have no obvious way to remind us
to do that.  What we want to do here kind of depends how long it takes
the bug to be fixed, which isn't clear at the moment.

David Gibson (4):
  cppcheck: Make many pointers const
  conf: Remove overly cryptic selection of forward table
  cppcheck: Use "exhaustive" level checking when available
  cppcheck: Work around bug in cppcheck 2.12.0

Newer versions of cppcheck (as of 2.12.0, at least) added a warning for
pointers which could be declared to point at const data, but aren't.
Based on that, make many pointers throughout the codebase const.

In a couple of places in conf(), we use a local 'fwd' variable to reference
one of our forwarding tables.  The value depends on which command line
option we're currently looking at, and is initialized rather cryptically
from an assignment side-effect within the if condition checking that
option.

Newer versions of cppcheck complain about this assignment being an always
true condition, but in any case it's both clearer and slightly shorter to
use separate if branches for the two cases and set the forwarding parameter
more directly.

Recent enough cppcheck versions (at least as of cppcheck 2.12) give this
error processing conf.c:

conf.c:1179:1: information: ValueFlow analysis is limited in conf. Use --check-level=exhaustive if full analysis is wanted. [checkLevelNormal]

Adding --check-level=exhaustive doesn't seem to significantly increase the
cppcheck run time for us, so enable it when possible, suppressing that
warning.

cppcheck 2.12.0 (and maybe some other versions) things this if condition
is always true, which is demonstrably not true.  Work around the bug for
now.

Forgot to mention that this was based on the siphash series, although
I don't think it will have any conflicts.

On my system, it's 23 seconds instead of 21... I don't really see a
problem with that.

I don't see a big issue with this either, we already have one
suppression like that in tcp_clamp_window() where we kind of identified
the issue but it hasn't been solved yet.

Once it's fixed, we'll hopefully notice and drop the suppression if
cppcheck 2.12 is old enough by then, but if we don't, I don't think it's
a drama.

The whole series looks good to me by the way.
