Convert more 'alloc_obj' cases to default GFP_KERNEL arguments

2026-02-22T04:03:00+00:00

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next line. Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial. So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed' scripts. The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want whitespace cleanup anyway. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using git grep -l '\

treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types

2026-02-21T09:02:28+00:00

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union object instances: Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...) Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook

drbd: Replace deprecated strcpy with strscpy

2026-02-19T15:22:02+00:00

strcpy() has been deprecated [1] because it performs no bounds checking on the destination buffer, which can lead to buffer overflows. Replace it with the safer strscpy(). No functional changes.

Pull block updates from Jens Axboe: - Fix head insertion for mq-deadline, a regression from when priority support was added - Series simplifying and improving the ublk user copy code - Various ublk related cleanups - Fixup REQ_NOWAIT handling in loop/zloop, clearing NOWAIT when the request is punted to a thread for handling - Merge and then later revert loop dio nowait support, as it ended up causing excessive stack usage for when the inline issue code needs to dip back into the full file system code - Improve auto integrity code, making it less deadlock prone - Speedup polled IO handling, but manually managing the hctx lookups - Fixes for blk-throttle for SSD devices - Small series with fixes for the S390 dasd driver - Add support for caching zones, avoiding unnecessary report zone queries - MD pull requests via Yu: - fix null-ptr-dereference regression for dm-raid0 - fix IO hang for raid5 when array is broken with IO inflight - remove legacy 1s delay to speed up system shutdown - change maintainer's email address - data can be lost if array is created with different lbs devices, fix this problem and record lbs of the array in metadata - fix rcu protection for md_thread - fix mddev kobject lifetime regression - enable atomic writes for md-linear - some cleanups - bcache updates via Coly - remove useless discard and cache device code - improve usage of per-cpu workqueues - Reorganize the IO scheduler switching code, fixing some lockdep reports as well - Improve the block layer P2P DMA support - Add support to the block tracing code for zoned devices - Segment calculation improves, and memory alignment flexibility improvements - Set of prep and cleanups patches for ublk batching support.

net: Convert proto_ops connect() callbacks to use sockaddr_unsized

2025-11-05T03:10:32+00:00

Update all struct proto_ops connect() callback function prototypes from "struct sockaddr *" to "struct sockaddr_unsized *" to avoid lying to the compiler about object sizes. Calls into struct proto handlers gain casts that will be removed in the struct proto conversion patch. No binary changes expected.

drbd: replace kmap() with kmap_local_page() in receiver path

2025-11-03T15:15:54+00:00

Use kmap_local_page() instead of kmap() to avoid CPU contention. kmap() uses a global set of mapping slots that can cause contention between multiple CPUs, while kmap_local_page() uses per-CPU slots eliminating this contention. It also ensures non-sleeping operation and provides better cache locality. Convert kmap() to kmap_local_page() as it aligns with ongoing kernel efforts to modernize kmap() usage for better multi-core scalability. Signed-off-by: Shi Hao Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

drbd: Remove the open-coded page pool

2025-08-11T13:54:27+00:00

If the network stack keeps a reference for too long, DRBD keeps references on a higher number of pages as a consequence. Fix all that by no longer relying on page reference counts dropping to an expected value. Instead, DRBD gives up its reference and lets the system handle everything else. While at it, remove the open-coded custom page pool mechanism and use the page_pool included in the kernel.
