Subject: [PATCH 22/27] net/dccp: Use memdup_user
Date: Sat, 22 May 2010 10:25:19 +0200 (CEST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.1005221025040.13021@ask.diku.dk> (raw)
From: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>
Use memdup_user when user data is immediately copied into the
allocated region.
The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
// <smpl>
@@
expression from,to,size,flag;
position p;
identifier l1,l2;
@@
- to = \(kmalloc@p\|kzalloc@p\)(size,flag);
+ to = memdup_user(from,size);
if (
- to==NULL
+ IS_ERR(to)
|| ...) {
<+... when != goto l1;
- -ENOMEM
+ PTR_ERR(to)
...+>
}
- if (copy_from_user(to, from, size) != 0) {
- <+... when != goto l2;
- -EFAULT
- ...+>
- }
// </smpl>
