1// SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0-only 2/// Remove casting the values returned by memory allocation functions 3/// like kmalloc, kzalloc, kmem_cache_alloc, kmem_cache_zalloc etc. 4/// 5//# This makes an effort to find cases of casting of values returned by 6//# kmalloc, kzalloc, kcalloc, kmem_cache_alloc, kmem_cache_zalloc, 7//# kmem_cache_alloc_node, kmalloc_node and kzalloc_node and removes 8//# the casting as it is not required. The result in the patch case may 9//# need some reformatting. 10// 11// Confidence: High 12// Copyright: (C) 2014 Himangi Saraogi 13// Copyright: (C) 2017 Himanshu Jha 14// Comments: 15// Options: --no-includes --include-headers 16// 17 18virtual context 19virtual patch 20virtual org 21virtual report 22 23@initialize:python@ 24@@ 25import re 26pattern = '__' 27m = re.compile(pattern) 28 29@r1 depends on context || patch@ 30type T; 31@@ 32 33 (T *) 34 \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\|kmem_cache_alloc\|kmem_cache_zalloc\| 35 kmem_cache_alloc_node\|kmalloc_node\|kzalloc_node\|vmalloc\|vzalloc\| 36 dma_alloc_coherent\|devm_kmalloc\|devm_kzalloc\| 37 kvmalloc\|kvzalloc\|kvmalloc_node\|kvzalloc_node\|pci_alloc_consistent\| 38 pci_zalloc_consistent\|kmem_alloc\|kmem_zalloc\|kmem_zone_alloc\| 39 kmem_zone_zalloc\|vmalloc_node\|vzalloc_node\)(...) 40 41//---------------------------------------------------------- 42// For context mode 43//---------------------------------------------------------- 44 45@script:python depends on context@ 46t << r1.T; 47@@ 48 49if m.search(t) != None: 50 cocci.include_match(False) 51 52@depends on context && r1@ 53type r1.T; 54@@ 55 56* (T *) 57 \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\|kmem_cache_alloc\|kmem_cache_zalloc\| 58 kmem_cache_alloc_node\|kmalloc_node\|kzalloc_node\|vmalloc\|vzalloc\| 59 dma_alloc_coherent\|devm_kmalloc\|devm_kzalloc\| 60 kvmalloc\|kvzalloc\|kvmalloc_node\|kvzalloc_node\|pci_alloc_consistent\| 61 pci_zalloc_consistent\|kmem_alloc\|kmem_zalloc\|kmem_zone_alloc\| 62 kmem_zone_zalloc\|vmalloc_node\|vzalloc_node\)(...) 63 64//---------------------------------------------------------- 65// For patch mode 66//---------------------------------------------------------- 67 68@script:python depends on patch@ 69t << r1.T; 70@@ 71 72if m.search(t) != None: 73 cocci.include_match(False) 74 75@depends on patch && r1@ 76type r1.T; 77@@ 78 79- (T *) 80 \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\|kmem_cache_alloc\|kmem_cache_zalloc\| 81 kmem_cache_alloc_node\|kmalloc_node\|kzalloc_node\|vmalloc\|vzalloc\| 82 dma_alloc_coherent\|devm_kmalloc\|devm_kzalloc\| 83 kvmalloc\|kvzalloc\|kvmalloc_node\|kvzalloc_node\|pci_alloc_consistent\| 84 pci_zalloc_consistent\|kmem_alloc\|kmem_zalloc\|kmem_zone_alloc\| 85 kmem_zone_zalloc\|vmalloc_node\|vzalloc_node\)(...) 86 87//---------------------------------------------------------- 88// For org and report mode 89//---------------------------------------------------------- 90 91@r2 depends on org || report@ 92type T; 93position p; 94@@ 95 96 (T@p *) 97 \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\|kmem_cache_alloc\|kmem_cache_zalloc\| 98 kmem_cache_alloc_node\|kmalloc_node\|kzalloc_node\|vmalloc\|vzalloc\| 99 dma_alloc_coherent\|devm_kmalloc\|devm_kzalloc\| 100 kvmalloc\|kvzalloc\|kvmalloc_node\|kvzalloc_node\|pci_alloc_consistent\| 101 pci_zalloc_consistent\|kmem_alloc\|kmem_zalloc\|kmem_zone_alloc\| 102 kmem_zone_zalloc\|vmalloc_node\|vzalloc_node\)(...) 103 104@script:python depends on org@ 105p << r2.p; 106t << r2.T; 107@@ 108 109if m.search(t) != None: 110 cocci.include_match(False) 111else: 112 coccilib.org.print_safe_todo(p[0], t) 113 114@script:python depends on report@ 115p << r2.p; 116t << r2.T; 117@@ 118 119if m.search(t) != None: 120 cocci.include_match(False) 121else: 122 msg="WARNING: casting value returned by memory allocation function to (%s *) is useless." % (t) 123 coccilib.report.print_report(p[0], msg)
