Use kcalloc or kzalloc rather than the combination of kmalloc and memset. The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression x,y,flags; statement S; type T; @@ x = - kmalloc + kcalloc ( - y * sizeof(T), + y, sizeof(T), flags); if (x == NULL) S -memset(x, 0, y * sizeof(T)); @@ expression x,size,flags; statement S; @@ -x = kmalloc(size,flags); +x = kzalloc(size,flags); if (x == NULL) S -memset(x, 0, size); // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>
Todo: - checkpatch.pl cleanups - sparse cleanups - lots of little modules, should be merged together and added to the build. - testing? - handle churn in v4l layer. Please send patchs to Greg Kroah-Hartman <greg@kroah.com> and Cc: Ross Cohen <rcohen@snurgle.org> as well.
