The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // @@ type T; T *x; expression E; @@ memset(x, E, sizeof( + * x)) // Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- diff --git a/drivers/staging/wlan-ng/prism2fw.c b/drivers/staging/wlan-ng/prism2fw.c index 7d76a7f92a33..aaa70ed57710 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/wlan-ng/prism2fw.c +++ b/drivers/staging/wlan-ng/prism2fw.c @@ -439,7 +439,7 @@ void free_chunks(imgchunk_t *fchunk, unsigned int *nfchunks) } } *nfchunks = 0; - memset(fchunk, 0, sizeof(fchunk)); + memset(fchunk, 0, sizeof(*fchunk)); }
