From: Julia Lawall <julia at diku.dk>
At this point, ehv_pic has been allocated but not stored anywhere, so it
should be freed before leaving the function.
A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
// <smpl>
@exists@
local idexpression x;
statement S,S1;
expression E;
identifier fl;
expression *ptr != NULL;
@@
x = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\)(...);
...
if (x == NULL) S
<... when != x
when != if (...) { <+...kfree(x)...+> }
when any
when != true x == NULL
x->fl
...>
(
if (x == NULL) S1
|
if (...) { ... when != x
when forall
(
return \(0\|<+...x...+>\|ptr\);
|
* return ...;
)
}
)
// </smpl>
