Adding missing NULL checks after malloc with coccinelle
I want to write a semantic patch for coccinelle, so that it will add if (ptr == NULL) ...
checks after calls to malloc where they are missing.
Let's say I have the following input source code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
// memory leaks ignored
static void OK_simple(void)
{
char *ptr;
ptr = malloc(100);
if (ptr == NULL) {
return;
}
strcpy(ptr, "abcd");
}
static void NOT_OK_missing_NULL_check(void)
{
char *ptr;
ptr = malloc(100);
strcpy(ptr, "abcd");
}
static void NOT_OK_NULL_check_too_late(void)
{
char *ptr;
ptr = malloc(100);
strcpy(ptr, "abcd");
if (ptr == NULL) {
return;
}
}
static void OK_code_between_allocation_and_NULL_check(void)
{
char *ptr;
ptr = malloc(100);
printf("The NULL test does not have to be put immediately after\n");
if (ptr == NULL) {
return;
}
strcpy(ptr, "abcd");
}
static void OK_two_allocations(void)
{
char *ptr1, *ptr2;
ptr1 = malloc(100);
ptr2 = malloc(100);
if (ptr1 == NULL) {
return;
}
if (ptr2 == NULL) {
return;
}
strcpy(ptr1, "abcd");
strcpy(ptr2, "abcd");
}
static void NOT_OK_two_allocations_with_one_missing_NULL_check(void)
{
char *ptr1, *ptr2;
ptr1 = malloc(100);
ptr2 = malloc(100);
if (ptr1 == NULL) {
return;
}
strcpy(ptr1, "abcd");
strcpy(ptr2, "abcd");
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{

I have been trying to come up with a semantic patch which does this, but I have trouble getting it to do what I want. Just adding NULL tests unconditionally is no problem, the trouble is to not do it when not needed. The following is what I currently have:
// this rule matches code that already have a NULL test
@already_have_proper_check@
statement S;
type T;
T* ptr;
expression E;
@@
ptr = malloc(E);
... when != ptr
if (ptr == NULL) S
//+dummy_change_just_to_verify_that_this_rule_matches();
// this rule adds NULL tests where missing
//@add_NULL_check depends on !already_have_proper_check@
@add_NULL_check@
type T;
//T* ptr != already_have_proper_check.ptr;
T* ptr;
expression E;
@@
ptr = malloc(E);
+if (ptr == NULL) {
+ insert_error_handling_here();
+}
The trouble with this is that it does not exclude the OK cases, and I do not understand how to connect the two rules. Can anyone help me with this?
Just to be 100% clear, the output I want after running coccinelle is the following:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
// memory leaks ignored
