[PATCH 7/9] drivers/media/video/davinci/vpbe.c: introduce missing kfree
From: Julia Lawall
Date: Fri Dec 23 2011 - 12:40:06 EST
vpbe_dev needs to be freed before leaving the function in an error case.
A simplified version of the semantic match that finds the problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr)
// <smpl>
@r exists@
local idexpression x;
statement S;
identifier f1;
position p1,p2;
expression *ptr != NULL;
@@
x@p1 = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\)(...);
...
if (x == NULL) S
<... when != x
when != if (...) { <+...x...+> }
x->f1
...>
(
return \(0\|<+...x...+>\|ptr\);
|
return@p2 ...;
)
@script:python@
p1 << r.p1;
p2 << r.p2;
@@
print "* file: %s kmalloc %s return %s" % (p1[0].file,p1[0].line,p2[0].line)
// </smpl>
