fs/orangefs/orangefs-debugfs.c:368:7-14: WARNING: kzalloc should be used for buf, instead of kmalloc/memset
Use kzalloc rather than kmalloc followed by memset with 0 This considers some simple cases that are common and easy to validate Note in particular that there are no ...s in the rule, so all of the matched code has to be contiguous Generated by: scripts/coccinelle/api/alloc/kzalloc-simple.cocci Signed-off-by: Fengguang Wu <fengguang...@intel.com> --- orangefs-debugfs.c | 3 +-- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 2 deletions(-) --- a/fs/orangefs/orangefs-debugfs.c +++ b/fs/orangefs/orangefs-debugfs.c @@ -365,10 +365,9 @@ static ssize_t orangefs_debug_write(stru count = ORANGEFS_MAX_DEBUG_STRING_LEN + 1; } - buf = kmalloc(ORANGEFS_MAX_DEBUG_STRING_LEN, GFP_KERNEL); + buf = kzalloc(ORANGEFS_MAX_DEBUG_STRING_LEN, GFP_KERNEL); if (!buf) goto out; - memset(buf, 0, ORANGEFS_MAX_DEBUG_STRING_LEN); if (copy_from_user(buf, ubuf, count - 1)) { gossip_debug(GOSSIP_DEBUGFS_DEBUG, -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
