Description

netperf does not build with Xcode 12 or later due to the well-known implicit declaration of function problem.

net_uuid.c:158:5: error: implicit declaration of function 'read' is invalid in C99 [-Werror,-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
    read(fd, seed, 16);

net_uuid.c:158:5: note: did you mean 'fread'?
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX11.0.sdk/usr/include/stdio.h:158:9: note: 'fread' declared here

The fix is to patch the code to include the system headers that define these functions. Maybe upstream already fixed it; if so, we use their patch. If not, we report it to them.

In bb5b4fe058e28335bfadcd0ed7e76944aec93369/macports-ports (master):

netperf: Fix implicit func decls and wrong code

Fix implicit declaration of functions which caused build failure with
Xcode 12 and later.

Fix invocation of mach_port_deallocate which was called with 1 argument
but needs 2. I assume this change is correct but I don't know.

Closes: #62219
