Subject: [PATCH 1/2] UBI: eliminate update of list_for_each_entry loop cursor
Date: Sun, 29 Aug 2010 15:13:42 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1283084022.2131.37.camel@brekeke> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1283083932.2131.36.camel@brekeke>

From: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>

list_for_each_entry uses its first argument to move from one element to the
next, so modifying it can break the iteration.  The variable re1 is already
used within the loop as a temporary variable, and is not live here.

The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@r@
iterator name list_for_each_entry;
expression x,E;
position p1,p2;
@@

list_for_each_entry@p1(x,...) { <... x =@p2 E ...> }

@@
expression x,E;
position r.p1,r.p2;
statement S;
@@

*x =@p2 E
...
list_for_each_entry@p1(x,...) S
// </smpl>
