From: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@xxxxxxx> On success, the function netdev_alloc_skb initializes the dev field of its result to its first argument, so this doesn't have to be done in the calling context. The semantic patch that fixes this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression skb,privn,e; @@ skb = netdev_alloc_skb(privn,...); ... when strict ( -skb->dev = privn; | ?skb = e ) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@xxxxxxx> --- drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/hal/usb_ops_linux.c | 1 - 1 file changed, 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/hal/usb_ops_linux.c b/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/hal/usb_ops_linux.c index 74ee2e6..b92b4f5 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/hal/usb_ops_linux.c +++ b/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/hal/usb_ops_linux.c @@ -384,7 +384,6 @@ static int recvbuf2recvframe(struct adapter *adapt, struct sk_buff *pskb) pkt_copy = netdev_alloc_skb(adapt->pnetdev, alloc_sz); if (pkt_copy) { - pkt_copy->dev = adapt->pnetdev; precvframe->u.hdr.pkt = pkt_copy; precvframe->u.hdr.rx_head = pkt_copy->data; precvframe->u.hdr.rx_end = pkt_copy->data + alloc_sz; -- 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
