[PATCH 0/4] Add a Coccinelle front-end script

[PATCH 0/4] Add a Coccinelle front-end script

[Nicolas Palix]

New targets are added (coccicheck-<mode>) to call the 'coccinelle.sh' front-end
in the 'scripts' directory with the <mode> argument.

Four modes are defined: report, patch, context, and org.

'report' mode generates a list in the following format:
  file:line:column-column: message

'patch' mode proposes a generic fix, when possible.

'context' mode highlights lines of interest and their context
in a diff-like style.

'org' mode generates a report in the Org mode format of Emacs.

Three semantic patches, with a low rate of false positives, are also
included.  Other semantic patches will be provided later. Note that a
semantic patch does not need to define all four modes. As many semantic
patches may be proposed later, they are organized under sub-directories
of 'scripts/coccinelle/'.

We add a reference to the tool in the proposed changelog because it will
make the changelog easier to understand for someone who is not aware of
the tool.

To apply a single semantic patch, the user can define the COCCI environment
variable which gives the path to the semantic patch.

[PATCH 1/4] Add targets to use the Coccinelle checker

[Nicolas Palix]

Four targets are added. Each one generates a different
output kind: context, patch, org, report.
Every SmPL file in 'scripts/coccinelle' is given to the spatch frontend
(located in the 'scripts' directory), and applied to the entire
source tree.

[PATCH 2/4] Add scripts/coccinelle/drop_kmalloc_cast.cocci

[Nicolas Palix]

The purpose of this semantic patch is to remove
useless casts, as mentioned in the Linux documentation.
See Chapter 14 in Documentation/CodingStyle for more information.

[PATCH 3/4] Add scripts/coccinelle/kzalloc-simple.cocci

Please check-in this write-up somewhere (Documentation/README.coccinelle
perhaps?) along with information about how to get the required tools.
(Are they pacakged in Debian and/or Fedora?  What versions are the
scripts tested against?)

Also I'd like to see a short example of how to use the framework.  I've

Hi,

This is great! I would like to see coccinelle to be integrated with kbuild,
but the name 'coccicheck' is really confusing, how about 'sema_check'? Which
means 'semantic check'.

Or we can use something like for sparse, i.e. 'make C=1' etc..

Thanks!

I still haven't made my mind regarding these four modes; but if they are used,
they should be documented. ACK.

It's indeed not essential for the mainline. It's however
helpful to document the internal APIs and will help people
who want to (back)port this patch series on other branches,
potentially branches forked before 2.6.27 for instance.

I think its okay to keep coccicheck because its the name of the tool
called. We do the same with 'make cscope'.
But since I am a bit lazy I would prefer a shorter name, probably just
'make cocci'?

> Or we can use something like for sparse, i.e. 'make C=1' etc..

Yes, this would also make sense. As a developer I could add this and
only the code I changed is checked.

Don't know how complex the coccinelle software itself is, but I think it
would make sense to ship it with the kernel-sources too. That together
with a README and everything is perfect :-)

I just noticed that distributions already ship it in their repositories.
So this its okay to keep it outside the kernel sources.

I think it would be good to repeat the description of the four modes

Please sort the output of 'find' or use a shell glob instead. IMO the
order of tests should be stable (and thus easily diff-able) and not
change when you e.g. switch branches.

If 'spatch' is not available, you should exit with an error.

I think it would be good to repeat the description of the four modes
here (the 0/4 mail won't appear in the changelog).

Please sort the output of 'find' or use a shell glob instead. IMO the
order of tests should be stable (and thus easily diff-able) and not
change when you e.g. switch branches.

/home/mmarek/linux-2.6/scripts/coccinelle.sh: line 13: OPT: command not

Please remove the parentheses around OPT.

If 'spatch' is not available, you should exit with an error.

Oops. Thank you for reporting this.

I fixed it for my upcoming submission.

In the meantime, you can replace "msg_safe" by "msg" in the rule
dedicated to the "report" mode.

That is

coccilib.report.print_report(p[0], msg_safe)

by 

coccilib.report.print_report(p[0], msg

The good point is that you only reach this point if Coccinelle has found
something to change in the code. So there is some patches to do... ;)

The top-level Makefile is already in a very bad shape.
Adding more stuff there is never good.

How about adding some infrastructure to support the various tools?
Something along these lines:

All targets named %check will call a shell script:
scripts/%check.sh

"make help" will call a script named:
scripts/helpcheck.sh

helpcheck.sh will contain all the ugly details
about help for the various targets.

We need to rename a few seldomly used targets to do this.

As for cocci this would have the the effect that
new scipts can be made as drop-in - no changes

Hi,

I am not sure to understand your suggestion.

Should I make this change and integrate it into my patch series
or it is something to do later ?

In doing so, I will have to select the 'mode' in a different way.
I was thinking of renaming my targets in one of the following forms
or using an environment variable:

make cocci-report-check
make report-coccicheck
make coccicheck MODE=report

Do you have any preference ?

If we agree on this as the base infrastructure I would
like you to introduce it as part of adding Coccinelle support.

That should not touch the existing targets - but only
add Coccinelle support. But in a way so we have the
infrastructure in place so we can later move the other targets later.

I like the latter.
If you do "make coccicheck" then you can show a list of
possible mode's. And if MODE is set you use this mode.

[PATCH 1/4] Add targets to use the Coccinelle checker

[Nicolas Palix]

Four targets are added. Each one generates a different
output kind: context, patch, org, report.
Every SmPL file in 'scripts/coccinelle' is given to the spatch frontend
(located in the 'scripts' directory), and applied to the entire
source tree.

Yes, or:

    When using "patch" mode, carefully review the patch before submitting it.

Actually, "take particular attention" is not particularly grammatical.
I might phrase this as

  Be especially careful when using the "patch" mode to review the patch
  you are about to submit.

Looking again they are named *.cocci. So I confused myself on the smpl thing.
The point above consistent naming still holds.

For outsiders smpl does not rellate to coccinelle.

I suggest to consistently use the name of the tool in all places.

So smpl directory to be named coccinelle
SPATCH named coccinelle
spatch.sh named coccinelle.sh
etc.

This way we use one name for one thing. And not today where you
use three names for the same thing.
The files may be named *.smpl - because their home in

    scripts/coccinelle/

will tell what they are used for.

[I regret that I used CHECK to name the sparse tool].

I think the part containing "THISFILE" the patches should be generated here at
runtime. Also, the grep-command can be done via sed.

This should be echo -e in bash, but then it won't work in dash I guess.
So better use multiple echo commands. Also please add the targets to
'make help' text and add coccicheck-% to the no-dot-config-targets variable.

Please use 'for file in $(srctree)/scripts/smpl/*.cocci; do ...', so
that the reports are in a defined order. Or do you plan to use
subdirectories below scripts/smpl?

echo "The semantic patch that makes this change is available"
echo "in $FILE"

Then you don't need to add the same comment to each of the *.cocci
files. Also is it necessary to advertise

"More information about semantic patching is available at
 http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/"

before processing each *.cocci file? If you want the banner, you could
append it to the "Please check for false positives..." text printed once
in the beginning.


> +$SPATCH -D $MODE -very_quiet -sp_file $COCCI $OPT -dir $DIR

You can also print the URL here if the spatch command is not available.

[PATCH 1/4] Add targets to use the Coccinelle checker

Four targets are added. Each one generates a different
output kind: context, patch, org, report.
Every SmPL file in 'scripts/smpl' is given to the spatch frontend
(located in the 'scripts' directory), and applied to the entire
source tree.
