+         provides the language SmPL (Semantic Patch Language) for specifying
+         desired matches and transformations in C code.  Coccinelle was
+         initially targeted towards performing collateral evolutions in
+         Linux.  Such evolutions comprise the changes that are needed in
+         client code in response to evolutions in library APIs, and may
+         include modifications such as renaming a function, adding a function
+         argument whose value is somehow context-dependent, and reorganizing
+         a data structure.  Beyond collateral evolutions, Coccinelle is
+         successfully used (by us and others) for finding and fixing bugs in
+         systems code.
