Subject: [PATCH 2/3] drivers/bluetooth: Add kmalloc NULL tests
Date: Thu, 06 Aug 2009 20:05:18 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0908062204290.19100@ask.diku.dk> (raw)
From: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>
Check that the result of kmalloc is not NULL before dereferencing it.
The patch also replaces kmalloc + memset by kzalloc.
The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
// <smpl>
@@
expression *x;
identifier f;
constant char *C;
@@
x = \(kmalloc\|kcalloc\|kzalloc\)(...);
... when != x = NULL
when != x != NULL
when != (x || ...)
(
kfree(x)
|
f(...,C,...,x,...)
|
*f(...,x,...)
|
*x->f
)
// </smpl>
