From c806adb33d2d69b2ca3e8e251084861cf346e196 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julien Brunel Date: Fri, 26 Sep 2008 15:27:25 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] UBI: fix IS_ERR test In case of error, the function add_volume returns an ERR pointer. The result of IS_ERR, which is supposed to be used in a test as it is, is here checked to be less than zero, which seems odd. We suggest to replace this test by a simple IS_ERR test. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // @def0@ expression x; position p0; @@ x@p0 = add_volume(...) @protected@ expression def0.x,E; position def0.p0; position p; statement S; @@ x@p0 ... when != x = E if (!IS_ERR(x) && ...) {<... x@p ...>} else S @unprotected@ expression def0.x,E; identifier fld; position def0.p0; position p != protected.p; @@ x@p0 ... when != x = E * x@p->fld // Signed-off-by: Julien Brunel Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy --- Reading git-format-patch failed
