Subject: [PATCH] drivers/net/usb: Correct code taking the size of a pointer
Date: Sun, 13 Dec 2009 16:47:04 +0100 (CET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0912131646400.27767@ask.diku.dk> (raw)
From: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>
sizeof(dev->dev_addr) is the size of a pointer. A few lines above, the
size of this field is obtained using netdev->addr_len for a call to memcpy,
so do the same here.
A simplified version of the semantic patch that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
// <smpl>
@@
expression *x;
expression f;
type T;
@@
*f(...,(T)x,...)
// </smpl>
