From: Joe Perches <joe@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: checkpatch: whine about ACCESS_ONCE Add a test for use of ACCESS_ONCE that could be written using READ_ONCE or WRITE_ONCE. --fix it too if desired. The WRITE_ONCE fixes are less correct than the coccinelle script below as checkpatch cannot have a completely correct "expression" mechanism because checkpatch works on patches and not complete files. $ cat access_once.cocci @@ expression e1; expression e2; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(e1) = e2 + WRITE_ONCE(e1, e2) @@ expression e1; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(e1) + READ_ONCE(e1) Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@xxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Julia Lawall <julia.lawall@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- scripts/checkpatch.pl | 22 ++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 22 insertions(+) diff -puN scripts/checkpatch.pl~checkpatch-whine-about-access_once scripts/checkpatch.pl --- a/scripts/checkpatch.pl~checkpatch-whine-about-access_once +++ a/scripts/checkpatch.pl @@ -5850,6 +5850,28 @@ sub process { } } +# whine about ACCESS_ONCE + if ($^V && $^V ge 5.10.0 && + $line =~ /\bACCESS_ONCE\s*$balanced_parens\s*(=(?!=))?\s*($FuncArg)?/) { + my $par = $1; + my $eq = $2; + my $fun = $3; + $par =~ s/^\(\s*(.*)\s*\)$/$1/; + if (defined($eq)) { + if (WARN("PREFER_WRITE_ONCE", + "Prefer WRITE_ONCE(<FOO>, <BAR>) over ACCESS_ONCE(<FOO>) = <BAR>\n" . $herecurr) && + $fix) { + $fixed[$fixlinenr] =~ s/\bACCESS_ONCE\s*\(\s*\Q$par\E\s*\)\s*$eq\s*\Q$fun\E/WRITE_ONCE($par, $fun)/; + } + } else { + if (WARN("PREFER_READ_ONCE", + "Prefer READ_ONCE(<FOO>) over ACCESS_ONCE(<FOO>)\n" . $herecurr) && + $fix) { + $fixed[$fixlinenr] =~ s/\bACCESS_ONCE\s*\(\s*\Q$par\E\s*\)/READ_ONCE($par)/; + } + } + } + # check for lockdep_set_novalidate_class if ($line =~ /^.\s*lockdep_set_novalidate_class\s*\(/ || $line =~ /__lockdep_no_validate__\s*\)/ ) { _ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe mm-commits" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
