2016-10-11Coccinelle: flag conditions with no effectNicholas Mc Guire1-0/+64
Report code constructs where the if and else branch are functionally identical. In cases where this is intended it really should be documented - most reported cases probably are bugs. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire <hofrat@osadl.org> Signed-off-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.com>
2016-10-02Coccinelle: pm_runtime: ensure relevance of pm_runtime reportsJulia Lawall1-7/+11
pm_runtime.cocci starts with one rule that searches for a variety of functions calls, followed by various rules that report errors. Previously, the only connection between the first rule and the rest was to check that the first rule had matched somewhere. Change the rules to propagate a position from the first rule to the others, to make sure that the sites reported on are the same as the sites that were identified as having the relevant functions.

2016-06-21coccinelle: catch krealloc() on devm_*() allocated memoryYann Droneaud1-0/+4
krealloc() must not be used against devm_*() allocated memory regions: - if a bigger memory is to be allocated, krealloc() and __krealloc() could return a different pointer than the one given to them, creating a memory region which is not managed, thus it will not be automatically released on device removal. - if a bigger memory is to be allocated, krealloc() could kfree() the managed memory region which is passed to it. The old pointer is left registered as a resource for the device. On device removal, this dangling pointer will be used and an unrelated memory region could be released. - if the requested size is equal to 0, krealloc() can also just behave like kfree(). Here too, the old pointer is kept associated with the device. On device removal, this invalid pointer will be used and an unrelated memory region could be released. For all these reasons, krealloc() must not be used on a pointer returned by devm_*() functions.

2016-04-13debugfs, coccinelle: check for obsolete DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTRIBUTE() usageNicolai Stange1-0/+67
In order to protect against file removal races, debugfs files created via debugfs_create_file() now get wrapped by a struct file_operations at their opening. If the original struct file_operations are known to be safe against removal races by themselves already, the proxy creation may be bypassed by creating the files through debugfs_create_file_unsafe(). In order to help debugfs users who use the common DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTRIBUTE() + debugfs_create_file() idiom to transition to removal safe struct file_operations, the helper macro DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE() has been introduced. Thus, the preferred strategy is to use DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE() + debugfs_create_file_unsafe() now. Introduce a Coccinelle script that searches for DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTRIBUTE()-defined struct file_operations handed into debugfs_create_file(). Suggest to turn these usages into the DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE() + debugfs_create_file_unsafe() pattern.

This effectively reverts 932058a5d5f9 ("coccinelle: misc: semantic patch to delete overly complex return code processing"). There can be both symmetry and readability reasons for not wanting to do the final function call as part of the return statement and to maintain a clear separation of success and error paths.

2014-08-06Coccinelle: Script to detect incorrect argument to sizeofHimangi Saraogi1-0/+76
This makes an effort to find cases where the argument to sizeof is wrong in memory allocation functions by checking the type of the allocated memory when it is a double pointer and ensuring the sizeof argument takes a pointer to the the memory being allocated. There are false positives in cases the sizeof argument is not used in constructing the return value.
