From: Julia Lawall Date: Mon, 24 Jan 2011 19:55:19 +0000 (+0000) Subject: fs/btrfs/inode.c: Add missing IS_ERR test X-Git-Tag: v2.6.38-rc4~2^2~17 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=34d19bada00f4825588b338a8ee193820f9ceeb0;p=pandora-kernel.git fs/btrfs/inode.c: Add missing IS_ERR test After the conditional that precedes the following code, inode may be an ERR_PTR value. This can eg result from a memory allocation failure via the call to btrfs_iget, and thus does not imply that root is different than sub_root. Thus, an IS_ERR check is added to ensure that there is no dereference of inode in this case. The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // @r@ identifier f; @@ f(...) { ... return ERR_PTR(...); } @@ identifier r.f, fld; expression x; statement S1,S2; @@ x = f(...) ... when != IS_ERR(x) ( if (IS_ERR(x) ||...) S1 else S2 | *x->fld ) // Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Signed-off-by: Chris Mason --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
