Re: [PATCH 5/5] arch/x86/kernel: Drop memory allocation cast

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx>

Drop cast on the result of kmalloc and similar functions.

The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@@
type T;
@@

- (T *)
  (\(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\|kmem_cache_alloc\|kmem_cache_zalloc\|
   kmem_cache_alloc_node\|kmalloc_node\|kzalloc_node\)(...))
// </smpl>
