2012-01-15scripts/coccinelle: improve the coverage of some semantic patchesJulia Lawall3-31/+63
This patch ensures that all semantic patches in the scripts/coccinelle directory provide the report option. Report messages that include line numbers now have the line number preceded by "line" for easier subsequent processing.

2010-08-31Coccinelle: Add locks/mini_lock.cocciNicolas Palix1-0/+95
Find missing unlocks. This semantic match considers the specific case where the unlock is missing from an if branch, and there is a lock before the if and an unlock after the if. False positives are due to cases where the if branch represents a case where the function is supposed to exit with the lock held, or where there is some preceding function call that releases the lock.

2010-08-31Coccinelle: Add locks/double_lock.cocciNicolas Palix1-0/+92
Find double locks. False positives may occur when some paths cannot occur at execution, due to the values of variables, and when there is an intervening function call that releases the lock.

2010-08-31Coccinelle: Add locks/call_kern.cocciNicolas Palix1-0/+74
Find functions that refer to GFP_KERNEL but are called with locks held. The proposed change of converting the GFP_KERNEL is not necessarily the correct one. It may be desired to unlock the lock, or to not call the function under the lock in the first place.
