Subject: [PATCH 11/13] dev->priv to netdev_priv(dev), for drivers/net/usb
Date: Fri, 3 Aug 2007 19:36:53 +0200 (MEST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200708031736.TAA00865@ifs.emn.fr> (raw)
Replacing accesses to dev->priv to netdev_priv(dev). The replacment
is safe when netdev_priv is used to access a private structure that is
right next to the net_device structure in memory. Cf
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.os.linux.development.system/browse_thread/thread/de19321bcd94dbb8/0d74a4adcd6177bd
This is the case when the net_device structure was allocated with
a call to alloc_netdev or one of its derivative.
Here is an excerpt of the semantic patch that performs the transformation
@ rule1 @
type T;
struct net_device *dev;
@@
dev =
(
alloc_netdev
|
alloc_etherdev
|
alloc_trdev
)
(sizeof(T), ...)
@ rule1bis @
struct net_device *dev;
expression E;
@@
dev->priv = E
@ rule2 depends on rule1 && !rule1bis @
struct net_device *dev;
type rule1.T;
@@
- (T*) dev->priv
+ netdev_priv(dev)
