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

ps3disk: use memcpy_{from,to}_bvec index

2025-11-14T16:10:16+00:00

With 6e0a48552b8c (ps3disk: use memcpy_{from,to}_bvec) converting ps3disk to new bvec helpers, incrementing the offset was accidently lost, corrupting consecutive buffers. Restore index for non-corrupted data transfers. Fixes: 6e0a48552b8c (ps3disk: use memcpy_{from,to}_bvec) Signed-off-by: René Rebe Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

ps3disk: Do not use dev->bounce_size before it is set

2025-01-03T18:44:25+00:00

dev->bounce_size is only initialized after it is used to set the queue limits. Fix this by using BOUNCE_SIZE instead.

block: remove BLK_MQ_F_SHOULD_MERGE

2024-12-23T15:17:23+00:00

BLK_MQ_F_SHOULD_MERGE is set for all tag_sets except those that purely process passthrough commands (bsg-lib, ufs tmf, various nvme admin queues) and thus don't even check the flag. Remove it to simplify the driver interface. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241219060214.1928848-1-hch@lst.de Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: move the nonrot flag to queue_limits

2024-06-19T13:58:28+00:00

Move the nonrot flag into the queue_limits feature field so that it can be set atomically with the queue frozen. Use the chance to switch to defaulting to non-rotational and require the driver to opt into rotational, which matches the polarity of the sysfs interface. For the z2ram, ps3vram, 2x memstick, ubiblock and dcssblk the new rotational flag is not set as they clearly are not rotational despite this being a behavior change. There are some other drivers that unconditionally set the rotational flag to keep the existing behavior as they arguably can be used on rotational devices even if that is probably not their main use today (e.g. virtio_blk and drbd). The flag is automatically inherited in blk_stack_limits matching the existing behavior in dm and md.

block: move cache control settings out of queue->flags

2024-06-19T13:58:28+00:00

Move the cache control settings into the queue_limits so that the flags can be set atomically with the device queue frozen. Add new features and flags field for the driver set flags, and internal (usually sysfs-controlled) flags in the block layer. Note that we'll eventually remove enough field from queue_limits to bring it back to the previous size. The disable flag is inverted compared to the previous meaning, which means it now survives a rescan, similar to the max_sectors and max_discard_sectors user limits. The FLUSH and FUA flags are now inherited by blk_stack_limits, which simplified the code in dm a lot, but also causes a slight behavior change in that dm-switch and dm-unstripe now advertise a write cache despite setting num_flush_bios to 0. The I/O path will handle this gracefully, but as far as I can tell the lack of num_flush_bios and thus flush support is a pre-existing data integrity bug in those targets that really needs fixing, after which a non-zero num_flush_bios should be required in dm for targets that map to underlying devices.
