From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> The debugging code using the freed structure is moved before the kfree. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @free@ expression E; position p; @@ kfree@p(E) @@ expression free.E, subE<=free.E, E1; position free.p; @@ kfree@p(E) ...
