2018-08-22Coccinelle: remove pci_alloc_consistent semantic to detect in ↵zhong jiang
zalloc-simple.cocci Because pci_alloc_consistent has been deprecated. We prefer to use dma_alloc_coherent directly. Therefore, we should remove pci_alloc_consistent to increase the confidence.

2018-01-16Coccinelle: kzalloc-simple: Rename kzalloc-simple to zalloc-simpleHimanshu Jha
Rename kzalloc-simple to zalloc-simple since now the rule is not specific to kzalloc function only, but also to many other zero memory allocating functions specified in the rule.

2018-01-16Coccinelle: alloc_cast: Add more memory allocating functions to the listHimanshu Jha
Add more memory allocating functions that are frequently used in the kernel code to the existing list and remove the useless casts where it is unnecessary. But preserve those casts having __attribute__ such as __force, __iomem, etc. which are used by Sparse in the static analysis of the code. Also remove two blank lines at EOF.

2018-01-16Coccinelle: kzalloc-simple: Add all zero allocating functionsHimanshu Jha
There are many instances where memory is allocated using regular allocator functions immediately followed by setting the allocated memory to 0 value using memset. We already have zero memory allocator functions to set the memory to 0 value instead of manually setting it using memset. Therefore, use zero memory allocating functions instead of regular memory allocators followed by memset 0 to remove redundant memset and make the code more cleaner and also reduce the code size.

2014-08-06Coccinelle: Script to detect cast after memory allocationHimangi Saraogi
This script detects cases of use of cast for the value returned by kmalloc, kzalloc, kcalloc, kmem_cache_alloc, kmem_cache_zalloc, kmem_cache_alloc_node, kmalloc_node and kzalloc_node and removes the cast as it is not useful. This Coccinelle script replaces drop_kmalloc_cast.cocci as it removes the casting in more limited cases of kmalloc, kzalloc and kcalloc.
