From 8052ee5f5fd9be153129eaa06ced4a786415abc1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julia Lawall Date: Tue, 1 Nov 2011 15:13:04 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] HID: drivers/hid/hid-roccat.c: eliminate a null pointer dereference It is not possible to take the lock in device if device is NULL. The mutex_lock is thus moved after the NULL test. New error handling labels are added at the end to differentiate between the cases where different sets of locks should be unlocks, and between whether or not reader should be freed (only on error). The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // @r@ expression E, E1; identifier f; statement S1,S2,S3; @@ if (E == NULL) { ... when != if (E == NULL || ...)
