From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> Once clp is assigned, it never becomes NULL, so we can make a label for it in the error handling code. Because the call to path_lookup follows the call to auth_domain_find, its error handling code should jump to this new label. The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @r@ expression x,E; statement S; position p1,p2,p3; @@ ( if ((x = auth_domain_find@p1(...)) == NULL || ...) S | x = auth_domain_find@p1(...) ... when != x if (x == NULL || ...) S ) <... if@p3 (...) { ... when != auth_domain_put(x) when != if (x) { ... auth_domain_put(x); ...} return@p2 ...; } ...> ( return x; | return 0; | x = E | E = x | auth_domain_put(x) ) @exists@ position r.p1,r.p2,r.p3; expression x; int ret != 0; statement S; @@ * x = auth_domain_find@p1(...) <... * if@p3 (...) S ...> * return@p2 \(NULL\|ret\); // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> --- fs/nfsd/export.c | 6 +++--- 1 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/fs/nfsd/export.c b/fs/nfsd/export.c index 33bfcf0..9dc036f 100644 --- a/fs/nfsd/export.c +++ b/fs/nfsd/export.c @@ -1023,7 +1023,7 @@ exp_export(struct nfsctl_export *nxp) /* Look up the dentry */ err = path_lookup(nxp->ex_path, 0, &nd); if (err) - goto out_unlock; + goto out_put_clp; err = -EINVAL; exp = exp_get_by_name(clp, nd.path.mnt, nd.path.dentry, NULL); @@ -1090,9 +1090,9 @@ finish: exp_put(exp); if (fsid_key && !IS_ERR(fsid_key)) cache_put(&fsid_key->h, &svc_expkey_cache); - if (clp) - auth_domain_put(clp); path_put(&nd.path); +out_put_clp: + auth_domain_put(clp); out_unlock: exp_writeunlock(); out: -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
