For my check, most of the results fall into three categories. 1) False positives (40% of results) 2) Badly designed interfaces that take a pointer to a pointer for no reason and can be cleaned up. (5%) 3) Bugs where we modified the code, but haven't tested it. Most of the time passing the wrong pointer will be detected right away during testing so it's not like this is a super common type of bug. (55%) I haven't pushed the check because 40% false positives is probably enough to make people complain. regards, dan carpenter -- 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
