From a8782f669c35df585749caadfbae6456d9e3ac98 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julia Lawall Date: Tue, 2 Dec 2008 19:34:52 -0300 Subject: V4L/DVB (9796): drivers/media/video/cx88/cx88-alsa.c: Adjust error-handling code In the function cx88_audio_initdev, the value card has been created using snd_card_new. The other error handling code in this function frees the value using snd_card_free. I have thus changed the first error case to do the same. On the other hand, it may be that card is not sufficiently initialized at this point to use snd_card_free, in which case something else should be done to free the memory in the error case. In the function snd_cx88_create the call kfree(chip) in one error case looks suspicious, both because it is not done in the other error code, and because chip points into the middle of the memory allocated by snd_card_new, ie it is not itself associated with a separate kmalloc. Therefore I have removed it. The semantic match that finds the first problem is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // @r exists@ local idexpression x; statement S,S1; position p1,p2,p3; expression E,E1; type T,T1; expression *ptr != NULL; @@ ( if ((x@p1 = snd_card_new(...)) == NULL) S | x@p1 = snd_card_new(...); ) ... when != snd_card_free(...,(T)x,...) when != if (...) { <+... snd_card_free(...,(T)x,...) ...+> } when != true x == NULL || ... when != x = E when != E = (T)x when any ( if (x == NULL || ...)
