[PATCH 6/11] drivers/net: Eliminate a NULL pointer dereference
From: Julia Lawall
Date: Thu May 27 2010 - 08:33:45 EST
From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx>
At the point of the print, dev is NULL.
A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
// <smpl>
@r exists@
expression E,E1;
identifier f;
statement S1,S2,S3;
@@
if ((E == NULL && ...) || ...)
{
... when != if (...) S1 else S2
when != E = E1
* E->f
... when any
return ...;
}
else S3
// </smpl>
