Subject: [PATCH 6/9] regulator: palmas: Drop unnecessary static
Date: Thu, 4 May 2017 22:10:51 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1493928654-18768-7-git-send-email-Julia.Lawall@lip6.fr> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1493928654-18768-1-git-send-email-Julia.Lawall@lip6.fr>
Drop static on a local variable, when the variable is initialized before
any use, on every possible execution path through the function.
The semantic patch that fixes this problem is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
// <smpl>
@bad exists@
position p;
identifier x;
type T;
@@
static T x@p;
...
x = <+...x...+>
@@
identifier x;
expression e;
type T;
position p != bad.p;
@@
-static
T x@p;
... when != x
when strict
?x = e;
// </smpl>
There is no reduction in code size in this case, but the change does reduce
the size of the bss segment, containing uninitialized static data.
