From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> dst_state_alloc returns an ERR_PTR value in an error case instead of NULL. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @match exists@ expression x, E; statement S1, S2; @@ x = dst_state_alloc(...) ... when != x = E ( * if (x == NULL || ...) S1 else S2 | * if (x == NULL && ...) S1 else S2 ) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxx> --- drivers/staging/dst/export.c | 2 +- 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/staging/dst/export.c b/drivers/staging/dst/export.c index 80ae4eb..4fbd848 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/dst/export.c +++ b/drivers/staging/dst/export.c @@ -159,7 +159,7 @@ static struct dst_state *dst_accept_client(struct dst_state *st) goto err_out_exit; new = dst_state_alloc(st->node); - if (!new) { + if (IS_ERR(new)) { err = -ENOMEM; goto err_out_release; } -- 1.6.4.2 _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
