Subject: [PATCH 1/6] drivers/dma: Correct use after free
Date: Tue, 22 Dec 2009 21:30:59 +0100 (CET)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0912222130370.28669@ask.diku.dk> (raw)

From: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>

Move the kfree after the iounmap that refers to the same structure.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@@
expression x,e;
identifier f;
iterator I;
statement S;
@@

*kfree(x);
... when != &x
    when != x = e
    when != I(x,...) S
*x->f
// </smpl>
