Subject: [RFC 3/4] devtools/cocci: add script to find where rte_calloc should be used
Date: Thu, 25 Apr 2024 11:24:00 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240425182738.4771-4-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240425182738.4771-1-stephen@networkplumber.org>

Better to use ret_calloc() than directly multiply up the
sizes of objects.

Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org>
