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> --- fs/ceph/mon_client.c | 3 +-- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 2 deletions(-) diff -u -p a/fs/ceph/mon_client.c b/fs/ceph/mon_client.c --- a/fs/ceph/mon_client.c +++ b/fs/ceph/mon_client.c @@ -481,11 +481,10 @@ int ceph_monc_do_statfs(struct ceph_mon_ struct ceph_mon_statfs *h; int err; - req = kmalloc(sizeof(*req), GFP_NOFS); + req = kzalloc(sizeof(*req), GFP_NOFS); if (!req) return -ENOMEM; - memset(req, 0, sizeof(*req)); kref_init(&req->kref); req->buf = buf; init_completion(&req->completion); -- 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
