11 * First of all, it's best if you lower your expectations from finding
12 * errors to just finding suspicious code. There tends to be a lot
13 * of false positives so having low expectations helps.
15 * For this test let's look for functions that return a negative value
16 * with a semaphore held.
18 * This is just a template check. It's designed for teaching
19 * only and is deliberately less useful than it could be.
21 * This test could be a lot better if it handled the stuff like this:
22 * ret = -ENOMEM;
23 * return ret;
24 * The correct way to handle that is to let smatch_extra store the
25 * value of ret. Then to use a *future* version of smatch that has
26 * the get_possible_states(name, SMATCH_EXTRA, sym) function. The
27 * possible states will be saved in merge_slist() in that future version.
29 * Another short coming is that it assumes a function isn't supposed
30 * to return negative with a lock held. Perhaps the function was
31 * called with the lock held. A more complicated script could check that.
33 * Also it would be more effective to check for other types of locks
34 * especially spinlocks.
