From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> Error handling code following a kmalloc should free the allocated data. The semantic match that finds the problem is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @r exists@ local idexpression x; statement S; expression E; identifier f,f1,l; position p1,p2; expression *ptr != NULL; @@ x@p1 = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\)(...); ... if (x == NULL) S <... when != x when != if (...) { <+...x...+> } ( x->f1 = E | (x->f1 == NULL || ...) | f(...,x->f1,...) ) ...> ( return \(0\|<+...x...+>\|ptr\); | return@p2 ...; ) @script:python@ p1 << r.p1; p2 << r.p2; @@ print "* file: %s kmalloc %s return %s" % (p1[0].file,p1[0].line,p2[0].line) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> --- drivers/mtd/maps/physmap_of.c | 6 +++--- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/mtd/maps/physmap_of.c b/drivers/mtd/maps/physmap_of.c index ba124ba..6ac5f9f 100644 --- a/drivers/mtd/maps/physmap_of.c +++ b/drivers/mtd/maps/physmap_of.c @@ -353,7 +353,7 @@ static int __devinit of_flash_probe(struct of_device *dev, &info->parts, 0); if (err < 0) { of_free_probes(part_probe_types); - return err; + goto err_out; } of_free_probes(part_probe_types); @@ -361,14 +361,14 @@ static int __devinit of_flash_probe(struct of_device *dev, if (err == 0) { err = of_mtd_parse_partitions(&dev->dev, dp, &info->parts); if (err < 0) - return err; + goto err_out; } #endif if (err == 0) { err = parse_obsolete_partitions(dev, info, dp); if (err < 0) - return err; + goto err_out; } if (err > 0) -- 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
