These patches convert a sequence of kmalloc and memcpy to use kasprintf
instead.

In the original code, in each case there was a kmalloc followed by a memcpy, as illustrated by the semantic patch below. In the case that the provided string was the empty string, the allocated memory was then overwritten with a constant string, causing a memory leak. Finally, there was no provision for returning -ENOMEM in case of failure of the memory allocation. Indeed, the return value in an error case was err, a variable that was never initialized to anything other than 0. The following patch rewrites the above code to first select a string based on various conditions, and then to copy it into a newly allocated memory region, using kasprintf. This decreases subtantially the code size and removes the memory leak. The instruction for getting the length of the string and the associated variable declaration are also deleted. The patch also drops err, changes the return value to retval, which in each file was already initialized elsewhere to an error code, and initializes retval to -ENOMEM when kasprintf fails. The semantic patch that motivated this transformation is: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression a,flag,len; expression arg,e1,e2; statement S; @@ len = strlen(arg) ... when != len = e1 when != arg = e2 a = - \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\)(len+1,flag) + kasprintf(flag,"%s",arg) <... when != a if (a == NULL || ...) S ...> - memcpy(a,arg,len+1); // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> --- This patch makes quite a lot of changes and is only compile tested. drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-audio-upstream.c | 36 +++--------- drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-video-upstream-ch2.c | 57 +++++++------------ drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-video-upstream.c | 56 +++++++----------- 3 files changed, 56 insertions(+), 93 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-audio-upstream.c b/drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-audio-upstream.c index 27087db..a8f6343 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-audio-upstream.c +++ b/drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-audio-upstream.c @@ -723,8 +723,7 @@ int cx25821_audio_upstream_init(struct cx25821_dev *dev, int channel_select) { struct sram_channel *sram_ch; int retval = 0; - int err = 0; - int str_length = 0; + char *filename; if (dev->_audio_is_running) { printk(KERN_WARNING "Audio Channel is still running so return!\n"); @@ -752,28 +751,15 @@ int cx25821_audio_upstream_init(struct cx25821_dev *dev, int channel_select) dev->_audio_lines_count = LINES_PER_AUDIO_BUFFER; _line_size = AUDIO_LINE_SIZE; - if (dev->input_audiofilename) { - str_length = strlen(dev->input_audiofilename); - dev->_audiofilename = kmalloc(str_length + 1, GFP_KERNEL); - - if (!dev->_audiofilename) - goto error; - - memcpy(dev->_audiofilename, dev->input_audiofilename, - str_length + 1); - - /* Default if filename is empty string */ - if (strcmp(dev->input_audiofilename, "") == 0) - dev->_audiofilename = "/root/audioGOOD.wav"; - - } else { - str_length = strlen(_defaultAudioName); - dev->_audiofilename = kmalloc(str_length + 1, GFP_KERNEL); - - if (!dev->_audiofilename) - goto error; - - memcpy(dev->_audiofilename, _defaultAudioName, str_length + 1); + if (dev->input_audiofilename && + strcmp(dev->input_audiofilename, "") != 0) + filename = dev->input_audiofilename; + else + filename = _defaultAudioName; + dev->_audiofilename = kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "%s", filename); + if (!dev->_audiofilename) { + retval = -ENOMEM; + goto error; } retval = @@ -802,5 +788,5 @@ int cx25821_audio_upstream_init(struct cx25821_dev *dev, int channel_select) error: cx25821_dev_unregister(dev); - return err; + return retval; } diff --git a/drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-video-upstream-ch2.c b/drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-video-upstream-ch2.c index d12dbb5..531e0c4 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-video-upstream-ch2.c +++ b/drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-video-upstream-ch2.c @@ -747,10 +747,9 @@ int cx25821_vidupstream_init_ch2(struct cx25821_dev *dev, int channel_select, struct sram_channel *sram_ch; u32 tmp; int retval = 0; - int err = 0; int data_frame_size = 0; int risc_buffer_size = 0; - int str_length = 0; + char *filename; if (dev->_is_running_ch2) { printk("Video Channel is still running so return!\n"); @@ -789,38 +788,26 @@ int cx25821_vidupstream_init_ch2(struct cx25821_dev *dev, int channel_select, dev->_isNTSC_ch2 ?

IMHO you could use dev->_audiofilename directly without loss of clarity. Turning the if condition on its head (and removing the strcmp) is the way i would check. Please see this a comment the result is of cause identical. hope that helps re wh > >> The if statement looks strange this looks more familar to me: >> if (!dev->input_audiofilename || *dev->input_audiofilename==0) >> filename = _defaultAudioName; >> else >> filename = dev->input_audiofilename; > > OK. > ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 21+ messages in thread

In the original code, in each case there was a kmalloc followed by a memcpy, as illustrated by the semantic patch below. In the case that the provided string was the empty string, the allocated memory was then overwritten with a constant string, causing a memory leak. Finally, there was no provision for returning -ENOMEM in case of failure of the memory allocation. Indeed, the return value in an error case was err, a variable that was never initialized to anything other than 0. The following patch rewrites the above code to first select a string based on various conditions, and then to copy it into a newly allocated memory region, using kstrdup. This decreases subtantially the code size and removes the memory leak. The instruction for getting the length of the string and the associated variable declaration are also deleted. The patch also drops err, changes the return value to retval, which in each file was already initialized elsewhere to an error code, and initializes retval to -ENOMEM when kstrdup fails. The semantic patch that motivated this transformation is: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression a,flag,len; expression arg,e1,e2; statement S; @@ len = strlen(arg) ... when != len = e1 when != arg = e2 a = - \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\)(len+1,flag) + kstrdup(arg,flag) <... when != a if (a == NULL || ...) S ...> - memcpy(a,arg,len+1); // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> --- This patch makes quite a lot of changes and is only compile tested.

In the original code, in each case there was a kmalloc followed by a memcpy, as illustrated by the semantic patch below. In the case that the provided string was the empty string, the allocated memory was then overwritten with a constant string, causing a memory leak. Finally, there was no provision for returning -ENOMEM in case of failure of the memory allocation. Indeed, the return value in an error case was err, a variable that was never initialized to anything other than 0. The following patch rewrites the above code to first select a string based on various conditions, and then to copy it into a newly allocated memory region, using kstrdup. This decreases subtantially the code size and removes the memory leak. The instruction for getting the length of the string and the associated variable declaration are also deleted. The patch also drops err, changes the return value to retval, which in each file was already initialized elsewhere to an error code, and initializes retval to -ENOMEM when kstrdup fails. The semantic patch that motivated this transformation is: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression a,flag,len; expression arg,e1,e2; statement S; @@ len = strlen(arg) ... when != len = e1 when != arg = e2 a = - \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\)(len+1,flag) + kstrdup(arg,flag) <... when != a if (a == NULL || ...) S ...> - memcpy(a,arg,len+1); // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> --- This patch makes quite a lot of changes and is only compile tested. As compared to the previous version, the local variable filename is readded and the nested ifs in the second and third file are reorganized. drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-audio-upstream.c | 35 +++-------- drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-video-upstream-ch2.c | 58 +++++++------------ drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-video-upstream.c | 55 +++++++----------- 3 files changed, 54 insertions(+), 94 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-audio-upstream.c b/drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-audio-upstream.c index 27087db..252aa49 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-audio-upstream.c +++ b/drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-audio-upstream.c @@ -723,8 +723,7 @@ int cx25821_audio_upstream_init(struct cx25821_dev *dev, int channel_select) { struct sram_channel *sram_ch; int retval = 0; - int err = 0; - int str_length = 0; + char *filename; if (dev->_audio_is_running) { printk(KERN_WARNING "Audio Channel is still running so return!\n"); @@ -752,28 +751,14 @@ int cx25821_audio_upstream_init(struct cx25821_dev *dev, int channel_select) dev->_audio_lines_count = LINES_PER_AUDIO_BUFFER; _line_size = AUDIO_LINE_SIZE; - if (dev->input_audiofilename) { - str_length = strlen(dev->input_audiofilename); - dev->_audiofilename = kmalloc(str_length + 1, GFP_KERNEL); - - if (!dev->_audiofilename) - goto error; - - memcpy(dev->_audiofilename, dev->input_audiofilename, - str_length + 1); - - /* Default if filename is empty string */ - if (strcmp(dev->input_audiofilename, "") == 0) - dev->_audiofilename = "/root/audioGOOD.wav"; - - } else { - str_length = strlen(_defaultAudioName); - dev->_audiofilename = kmalloc(str_length + 1, GFP_KERNEL); - - if (!dev->_audiofilename) - goto error; - - memcpy(dev->_audiofilename, _defaultAudioName, str_length + 1); + if (!dev->input_audiofilename || *dev->input_audiofilename == 0) + filename = _defaultAudioName; + else + filename = dev->input_audiofilename; + dev->_audiofilename = kstrdup(filename, GFP_KERNEL); + if (!dev->_audiofilename) { + retval = -ENOMEM; + goto error; } retval = @@ -802,5 +787,5 @@ int cx25821_audio_upstream_init(struct cx25821_dev *dev, int channel_select) error: cx25821_dev_unregister(dev); - return err; + return retval; } diff --git a/drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-video-upstream-ch2.c b/drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-video-upstream-ch2.c index d12dbb5..3d276c1 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-video-upstream-ch2.c +++ b/drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-video-upstream-ch2.c @@ -747,10 +747,9 @@ int cx25821_vidupstream_init_ch2(struct cx25821_dev *dev, int channel_select, struct sram_channel *sram_ch; u32 tmp; int retval = 0; - int err = 0; int data_frame_size = 0; int risc_buffer_size = 0; - int str_length = 0; + char *filename; if (dev->_is_running_ch2) { printk("Video Channel is still running so return!\n"); @@ -788,39 +787,26 @@ int cx25821_vidupstream_init_ch2(struct cx25821_dev *dev, int channel_select, risc_buffer_size = dev->_isNTSC_ch2 ?
