Subject: [PATCH 2/3] drivers/video/backlight/da903x.c: introduce missing kfree
Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2008 19:06:03 +0100 (CET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0811141905330.10023@pc-004.diku.dk> (raw)
From: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>
Error handling code following a kzalloc should free the allocated data.
The semantic match that finds the problem is as follows:
(http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)
// <smpl>
@r exists@
local idexpression x;
statement S;
expression E;
identifier f,l;
position p1,p2;
expression *ptr != NULL;
@@
(
if ((x@p1 = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\)(...)) == NULL) S
|
x@p1 = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\)(...);
...
if (x == NULL) S
)
<... when != x
when != if (...) { <+...x...+> }
x->f = E
...>
(
return \(0\|<+...x...+>\|ptr\);
|
return@p2 ...;
)
@script:python@
p1 << r.p1;
p2 << r.p2;
@@
print "* file: %s kmalloc %s return %s" % (p1[0].file,p1[0].line,p2[0].line)
// </smpl>
