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

sysfs: treewide: switch back to bin_attribute::read()/write()

2025-06-17T08:44:13+00:00

The bin_attribute argument of bin_attribute::read() is now const. This makes the _new() callbacks unnecessary. Switch all users back.

firmware: google: vpd: Use const 'struct bin_attribute' callback

2024-12-17T03:59:31+00:00

The sysfs core now provides callback variants that explicitly take a const pointer. Use them so the non-const variants can be removed.

firmware: coreboot: Replace tag with id table in driver struct

2024-02-17T00:53:06+00:00

Switch the plain 'tag' field in struct coreboot_driver for the newly created coreboot_device_id struct, which also contains a tag field and has the benefit of allowing modalias generation, and update all coreboot drivers accordingly. While at it, also add the id table for each driver to the module device table to allow automatically loading the module.

firmware: google: make coreboot driver's remove callback return void

2021-02-09T11:12:43+00:00

All coreboot drivers return 0 unconditionally in their remove callback. Also the device core ignores the return value of the struct bus_type::remove(), so make the coreboot remove callback return void instead of giving driver authors the illusion they could return an error code here. All drivers are adapted accordingly. Signed-off-by: Uwe Kleine-König Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210126215339.706021-1-uwe@kleine-koenig.org Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

firmware: google: vpd: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member

2020-06-16T04:08:21+00:00

There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare having a dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure. Kernel code should always use “flexible array members”[1] for these cases. The older style of one-element or zero-length arrays should no longer be used[2].
