Hi; Since people have been asking about my recent use of devel/coccinelle, I created a directory where I am keeping the test patches I use: https://people.freebsd.org/~pfg/patches/cocci/ I do *not* actually recommend running them on a regular basis. Most of the cases caught cosmetic issues on code that has been aging and are unlikely to be touched (again) in years. The interesting bugs are usually caught early by static checkers already in regular use by the project. Handle with care, beware of false positives, etc. but absolutely enjoy! Pedro.
