A semantic conflict arises when other patch series in + flight introduce calls to such functions. + + So to aid these large scale refactorings, semantic patches can be used. + However we do not want to store them in the same place as the checks for + bad patterns, as then automated builds would fail. + That is why semantic patches 'contrib/coccinelle/*.pending.cocci' + are ignored for checks, and can be applied using 'make coccicheck-pending'. + + This allows to expose plans of pending large scale refactorings without + impacting the bad pattern checks. diff --git a/contrib/coccinelle/commit.cocci b/contrib/coccinelle/commit.cocci index aec3345adb..c49aa558f0 100644 --- a/contrib/coccinelle/commit.cocci +++ b/contrib/coccinelle/commit.cocci @@ -15,10 +15,10 @@ expression c; identifier f !~ "^(get_commit_tree|get_commit_tree_in_graph_one|load_tree_for_commit)$"; expression c; @@ - f(...) {... + f(...) {<... - c->maybe_tree + get_commit_tree(c) - ...} + ...>} @@ expression c; diff --git a/contrib/coccinelle/object_id.cocci b/contrib/coccinelle/object_id.cocci index 09afdbf994..6a7cf3e02d 100644 --- a/contrib/coccinelle/object_id.cocci +++ b/contrib/coccinelle/object_id.cocci @@ -1,110 +1,149 @@ @@ -expression E1; +struct object_id OID; @@ -- is_null_sha1(E1.hash) -+ is_null_oid(&E1) +- is_null_sha1(OID.hash) ++ is_null_oid(&OID) @@ -expression E1; +struct object_id *OIDPTR; @@ -- is_null_sha1(E1->hash) -+ is_null_oid(E1) +- is_null_sha1(OIDPTR->hash) ++ is_null_oid(OIDPTR) @@ -expression E1; +struct object_id OID; @@ -- sha1_to_hex(E1.hash) -+ oid_to_hex(&E1) +- sha1_to_hex(OID.hash) ++ oid_to_hex(&OID) @@ identifier f != oid_to_hex; -expression E1; +struct object_id *OIDPTR; @@ - f(...) {... -- sha1_to_hex(E1->hash) -+ oid_to_hex(E1) - ...} + f(...) {<... +- sha1_to_hex(OIDPTR->hash) ++ oid_to_hex(OIDPTR) + ...>} @@ -expression E1, E2; +expression E; +struct object_id OID; @@ -- sha1_to_hex_r(E1, E2.hash) -+ oid_to_hex_r(E1, &E2) +- sha1_to_hex_r(E, OID.hash) ++ oid_to_hex_r(E, &OID) @@ identifier f != oid_to_hex_r; -expression E1, E2; +expression E; +struct object_id *OIDPTR; @@ - f(...) {... -- sha1_to_hex_r(E1, E2->hash) -+ oid_to_hex_r(E1, E2) - ...} + f(...) {<... +- sha1_to_hex_r(E, OIDPTR->hash) ++ oid_to_hex_r(E, OIDPTR) + ...>} @@ -expression E1; +struct object_id OID; @@ -- hashclr(E1.hash) -+ oidclr(&E1) +- hashclr(OID.hash) ++ oidclr(&OID) @@ identifier f != oidclr; -expression E1; +struct object_id *OIDPTR; @@ - f(...) {... -- hashclr(E1->hash) -+ oidclr(E1) - ...} + f(...) {<... +- hashclr(OIDPTR->hash) ++ oidclr(OIDPTR) + ...>} @@ -expression E1, E2; +struct object_id OID1, OID2; @@ -- hashcmp(E1.hash, E2.hash) -+ oidcmp(&E1, &E2) +- hashcmp(OID1.hash, OID2.hash) ++ oidcmp(&OID1, &OID2) @@ identifier f != oidcmp; -expression E1, E2; +struct object_id *OIDPTR1, OIDPTR2; @@ - f(...) {... -- hashcmp(E1->hash, E2->hash) -+ oidcmp(E1, E2) - ...} + f(...) {<... +- hashcmp(OIDPTR1->hash, OIDPTR2->hash) ++ oidcmp(OIDPTR1, OIDPTR2) + ...>} @@ -expression E1, E2; +struct object_id *OIDPTR; +struct object_id OID; @@ -- hashcmp(E1->hash, E2.hash) -+ oidcmp(E1, &E2) +- hashcmp(OIDPTR->hash, OID.hash) ++ oidcmp(OIDPTR, &OID) @@ -expression E1, E2; +struct object_id *OIDPTR; +struct object_id OID; @@ -- hashcmp(E1.hash, E2->hash) -+ oidcmp(&E1, E2) +- hashcmp(OID.hash, OIDPTR->hash) ++ oidcmp(&OID, OIDPTR) @@ -expression E1, E2; +struct object_id OID1, OID2; @@ -- hashcpy(E1.hash, E2.hash) -+ oidcpy(&E1, &E2) +- hashcpy(OID1.hash, OID2.hash) ++ oidcpy(&OID1, &OID2) @@ identifier f != oidcpy; -expression E1, E2; +struct object_id *OIDPTR1; +struct object_id *OIDPTR2; +@@ + f(...) {<... +- hashcpy(OIDPTR1->hash, OIDPTR2->hash) ++ oidcpy(OIDPTR1, OIDPTR2) + ...>} + @@ - f(...) {... -- hashcpy(E1->hash, E2->hash) -+ oidcpy(E1, E2) - ...} +struct object_id *OIDPTR; +struct object_id OID; +@@ +- hashcpy(OIDPTR->hash, OID.hash) ++ oidcpy(OIDPTR, &OID) + +@@ +struct object_id *OIDPTR; +struct object_id OID; +@@ +- hashcpy(OID.hash, OIDPTR->hash) ++ oidcpy(&OID, OIDPTR) + +@@ +struct object_id *OIDPTR1; +struct object_id *OIDPTR2; +@@ +- oidcmp(OIDPTR1, OIDPTR2) == 0 ++ oideq(OIDPTR1, OIDPTR2) @@ +identifier f != hasheq; expression E1, E2; @@ -- hashcpy(E1->hash, E2.hash) -+ oidcpy(E1, &E2) + f(...) {<... +- hashcmp(E1, E2) == 0 ++ hasheq(E1, E2) + ...>} + +@@ +struct object_id *OIDPTR1; +struct object_id *OIDPTR2; +@@ +- oidcmp(OIDPTR1, OIDPTR2) != 0 ++ !oideq(OIDPTR1, OIDPTR2) @@ +identifier f != hasheq; expression E1, E2; @@ -- hashcpy(E1.hash, E2->hash) -+ oidcpy(&E1, E2) + f(...) {<... +- hashcmp(E1, E2) != 0 ++ !hasheq(E1, E2) + ...>} diff --git a/contrib/coccinelle/preincr.cocci b/contrib/coccinelle/preincr.cocci new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..7fe1e8d2d9 --- /dev/null +++ b/contrib/coccinelle/preincr.cocci @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ +@ preincrement @ +identifier i; +@@ +- ++i > 1 ++ i++ |
