This small update suggestion is just another result from one of my evolving scripts for the semantic patch language. It was discussed under the topic “Comparing statement lists with SmPL” to some degree. https://systeme.lip6.fr/pipermail/cocci/2017-August/004388.html >> @@ -104,22 +102,23 @@ static struct sync_file_info *sync_file_info(int fd) >> info->num_fences = num_fences; >> >> fence_info = calloc(num_fences, sizeof(*fence_info)); >> - if (!fence_info) { >> - free(info); >> - return NULL; >> - } >> + if (!fence_info) >> + goto free_info; >> >> info->sync_fence_info = (uint64_t)fence_info; >> >> err = ioctl(fd, SYNC_IOC_FILE_INFO, info); >> if (err < 0) { >> free(fence_info); > > Why not add a free_fence_info to make it consistent? It did not add another jump label because it would be used only once for this if branch (according to your enquiry). >> - free(info); >> - return NULL; >> + goto free_info; Do you expect a second update approach for this source code place?
