From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> Use kzalloc rather than the combination of kmalloc and memset. The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression x,size,flags; statement S; @@ -x = kmalloc(size,flags); +x = kzalloc(size,flags); if (x == NULL) S -memset(x, 0, size); // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> --- drivers/media/dvb/frontends/ds3000.c | 5 +---- drivers/media/video/omap/omap_vout.c | 3 +-- 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff -u -p a/drivers/media/dvb/frontends/ds3000.c b/drivers/media/dvb/frontends/ds3000.c --- a/drivers/media/dvb/frontends/ds3000.c +++ b/drivers/media/dvb/frontends/ds3000.c @@ -969,15 +969,12 @@ struct dvb_frontend *ds3000_attach(const dprintk("%s\n", __func__); /* allocate memory for the internal state */ - state = kmalloc(sizeof(struct ds3000_state), GFP_KERNEL); + state = kzalloc(sizeof(struct ds3000_state), GFP_KERNEL); if (state == NULL) { printk(KERN_ERR "Unable to kmalloc\n"); goto error2; } - /* setup the state */ - memset(state, 0, sizeof(struct ds3000_state)); - state->config = config; state->i2c = i2c; state->prevUCBS2 = 0; diff -u -p a/drivers/media/video/omap/omap_vout.c b/drivers/media/video/omap/omap_vout.c --- a/drivers/media/video/omap/omap_vout.c +++ b/drivers/media/video/omap/omap_vout.c @@ -2371,12 +2371,11 @@ static int __init omap_vout_create_video for (k = 0; k < pdev->num_resources; k++) { - vout = kmalloc(sizeof(struct omap_vout_device), GFP_KERNEL); + vout = kzalloc(sizeof(struct omap_vout_device), GFP_KERNEL); if (!vout) { dev_err(&pdev->dev, ": could not allocate memory\n"); return -ENOMEM; } - memset(vout, 0, sizeof(struct omap_vout_device)); vout->vid = k; vid_dev->vouts[k] = vout; -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
