From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> Check that the result of kmalloc/kzalloc is not NULL before dereferencing it. The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression *x; identifier f; constant char *C; @@ x = \(kmalloc\|kcalloc\|kzalloc\)(...); ... when != x == NULL when != x != NULL when != (x || ...)
