Subject: [PATCH 1/5] arch/arm: Correct NULL test
Date: Sun, 27 Dec 2009 22:26:54 +0100 (CET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0912272226360.20548@ask.diku.dk> (raw)
From: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>
Test the just-allocated value for NULL rather than some other value.
The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
// <smpl>
@@
expression x,y;
statement S;
@@
x = \(kmalloc\|kcalloc\|kzalloc\)(...);
(
if ((x) == NULL) S
|
if (
- y
+ x
== NULL)
S
)
// </smpl>
