From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> Use kmemdup when some other buffer is immediately copied into the allocated region. A simplified version of the semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression from,to,size,flag; statement S; @@ - to = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\)(size,flag); + to = kmemdup(from,size,flag); if (to==NULL || ...) S - memcpy(to, from, size); // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> --- drivers/staging/comedi/drivers/usbdux.c | 3 +-- drivers/staging/comedi/drivers/usbduxfast.c | 3 +-- drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-audio-upstream.c | 11 ++++------- drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-video-upstream-ch2.c | 12 ++++-------- drivers/staging/cx25821/cx25821-video-upstream.c | 10 ++++------ drivers/staging/go7007/go7007-driver.c | 3 +-- drivers/staging/hv/vmbus.c | 3 +-- drivers/staging/line6/dumprequest.c | 3 +-- drivers/staging/line6/pod.c | 6 ++---- drivers/staging/line6/variax.c | 5 ++--- drivers/staging/pohmelfs/config.c | 16 ++++++---------- drivers/staging/rtl8187se/ieee80211/ieee80211_softmac.c | 4 ++-- drivers/staging/rtl8187se/ieee80211/ieee80211_wx.c | 3 +-- drivers/staging/rtl8192e/ieee80211/ieee80211_softmac.c | 4 ++-- drivers/staging/rtl8192e/ieee80211/ieee80211_wx.c | 3 +-- drivers/staging/rtl8192su/ieee80211/ieee80211_softmac.c | 4 ++-- drivers/staging/rtl8192su/ieee80211/ieee80211_wx.c | 3 +-- drivers/staging/rtl8192u/ieee80211/ieee80211_softmac.c | 7 +++---- drivers/staging/rtl8192u/ieee80211/ieee80211_wx.c | 3 +-- drivers/staging/usbip/stub_rx.c | 4 ++-- 20 files changed, 42 insertions(+), 68 deletions(-) diff -u -p a/drivers/staging/comedi/drivers/usbdux.c b/drivers/staging/comedi/drivers/usbdux.c --- a/drivers/staging/comedi/drivers/usbdux.c +++ b/drivers/staging/comedi/drivers/usbdux.c @@ -840,13 +840,12 @@ static int firmwareUpload(struct usbduxs } /* we generate a local buffer for the firmware */ - fwBuf = kzalloc(sizeFirmware, GFP_KERNEL);
