coccinelle: avoid matching 'errno' as a file descriptor
The `coccinelle/take-fd.cocci` transformation file attempts to rewrite r = fd; fd = -1; to r = TAKE_FD(fd); Unfortunately, using `identifier` or `idexpression` as a metavariable type in this case wouldn't match more complex location descriptions, like: x->fd = fd fd = -1; Using 'expression' metavariable type generates false positives, as you can't specify scope of such expression. The only real example from the current codebase is the global 'errno' variable, which results in following patch generated by `spatch`: --- src/basic/errno-util.h +++ /tmp/cocci-output-28263-971baa-errno-util.h @@ -15,8 +15,7 @@ static inline void _reset_errno_(int *sa #define UNPROTECT_ERRNO \ do { \ - errno = _saved_errno_; \ - _saved_errno_ = -1; \ + errno = TAKE_FD(_saved_errno_); \ } while (false) static inline int negative_errno(void) { Let's explicitly state that the matched expression should not equal 'errno' to avoid this. It's not particularly nice, but it should be enough, at least for now.
