sizeof(foo) - No spaces. Not: sizeof (foo) - Parentheses. Not: sizeof foo - No parentheses wrapping sizeof itself Not: (sizeof foo) This patch can be approximated with the following semantic patch: $ cat ~/tmp/spatch/sizeof.sp @@ identifier a, b; @@ - sizeof a->b + sizeof(a->b) @@ identifier a, b; @@ - sizeof a.b + sizeof(a.b) @@ identifier x; @@ - sizeof x + sizeof(x) @@ identifier x; @@ - sizeof *x + sizeof(*x) @@ identifier x; @@ - (sizeof(x)) + sizeof(x) @@ identifier x; @@ - (sizeof(*x)) + sizeof(*x) Applied as $ find contrib/ lib* src/ -type f \ | xargs spatch --sp-file ~/tmp/spatch/sizeof.sp --in-place; The differences between the actual patch and the approximation via the semantic patch from above are whitespace only.

fgets(3) returns either NULL or the input pointer. Checking for NULL is more explicit, and simpler. <stddef.h> is the header that provides NULL; add it where appropriate. The meat of this patch can be approximated with the following semantic patch: $ cat ~/tmp/spatch/fgets_null.sp @@ expression a, b, c; @@ - fgets(a, b, c) == a + fgets(a, b, c) != NULL @@ expression a, b, c; @@ - fgetsx(a, b, c) == a + fgetsx(a, b, c) != NULL @@ expression a, b, c, p; @@ - p->cio_fgets(a, b, c) == a + p->cio_fgets(a, b, c) != NULL @@ expression a, b, c; @@ - fgets(a, b, c) != a + fgets(a, b, c) == NULL @@ expression a, b, c; @@ - fgetsx(a, b, c) != a + fgetsx(a, b, c) == NULL @@ expression a, b, c, p; @@ - p->cio_fgets(a, b, c) != a + p->cio_fgets(a, b, c) == NUL Applied as $ find contrib/ lib* src/ -type f \ | xargs spatch --sp-file ~/tmp/spatch/fgets_null.sp --in-place; The differences between the actual patch and the approximation via the semantic patch from above are includes, whitespace, braces, and a case where there was an implicit pointer-to-bool comparison which I made explicit. When reviewing, it'll be useful to use git-diff(1) with '-w' and '--color-words=.'. Signed-off-by: Alejandro Colomar <alx@kernel.org>
