  Hello,

I work on a patch set that eventually makes the function
rtsx_usb_sdmmc_drv_remove() return void:

A simplified spatch looks as follows:

-------->8--------
virtual patch

@p1@
identifier pdev;
@@
-int
+void
 rtsx_usb_sdmmc_drv_remove(struct platform_device *pdev) {
 <...
-return 0;
+return;
 ...>
 }
-------->8--------

This results in:

-------->8--------
-------->8--------

It's obvious to me, why coccinelle also removes the first return, but
it's not obvious to me, how to prevent this and only drop the 2nd one.

Do you have a hint for me?

Thanks in advance and happy holidays,
Uwe

The problem is that Coccinelle is following the control-flow through the
function, and all of the returns are at the end of a control.flow path.
The simple, hacky solution is to change the return;s into some function
call Return();, then do like the above for Return(); and then change the
Return();s back to return;s

Hello Julia,

first of all thanks for your quick answer.

OK, I tried, but somehow coccinelle refuse to work after I introduced
Return(), even replacing them by return; doesn't work:

Adding --debug doesn't give any hints.

(And if I add another hunk inbeetween removing Return at the end of the
function there is no effect either.)

Do I need to split that in two spatches to make coccinelle cooperate?

(If it matters, this is coccinelle as shipped by Debian, Version
1.1.1.deb-2)

Best regards
Uwe

The problem is that a control-flow path at this point can have multiple
calls to Return();  You pattern only matches when every control-flow path
through the code has exactly one Return().

You should have one rule that removes the final Return();

 @p2@
 identifier pdev;
 @@
  void rtsx_usb_sdmmc_drv_remove(struct platform_device *pdev) {
  ...
 -Return();
  }

Then another rule to remove the others:

 @p2@
 identifier pdev;
 @@
  void rtsx_usb_sdmmc_drv_remove(struct platform_device *pdev) {
  <...
 -Return();
 +return;
  ...>
  }

Ah, ok. This wasn't clear to me from reading the documentation (e.g.

I now have

virtual patch

@p1@
identifier pdev;
@@
-int
+void
 rtsx_usb_sdmmc_drv_remove(struct platform_device *pdev) {
 ...
-return 0;

But there p2 suffers from the same problem and only matches
code paths with exactly 1 Return(). So the above results in
