Subject: app/testpmd: fix hexadecimal parser with odd length
X-Git-Url: http://git.droids-corp.org/?p=dpdk.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=ea1da434c0a876b1913b9f0758abd1b6e70a19fd

app/testpmd: fix hexadecimal parser with odd length

Current hex string parser assumes input has even characters number.
The parser fails input string with odd length.

The patch parses hex strings with even and odd length.
Parse result of an input with odd length will match result of
even length input, that has `0` as MSB, following by the original
sequence.
For example:
"0x1" results in *dst={0x01, 0x00}, *size=1
"0xabc" results in *dst={0x0a, 0xbc, 0x00}, *size=2
