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

HID: Fix assumption that devices have inputs

2019-10-03T19:36:40+00:00

The syzbot fuzzer found a slab-out-of-bounds write bug in the hid-gaff driver. The problem is caused by the driver's assumption that the device must have an input report. While this will be true for all normal HID input devices, a suitably malicious device can violate the assumption. The same assumption is present in over a dozen other HID drivers. This patch fixes them by checking that the list of hid_inputs for the hid_device is nonempty before allowing it to be used.

HID: enable Mayflash USB Gamecube Adapter

HID: use hid_hw_request() instead of direct call to usbhid

2013-02-25T12:26:41+00:00

This allows the hid drivers to be independent from the transport layer. The patch was constructed by replacing all occurences of usbhid_submit_report() by its hid_hw_request() counterpart. Then, drivers not requiring USB_HID anymore have their USB_HID dependency cleaned in the Kconfig file. Finally, few drivers still depends on USB_HID. Many of them are requiring the io wait callback. They are found in the next patch. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Tissoires Reviewed-by: Mika Westerberg For the sensor-hub part: Tested-by: Mika Westerberg Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina

HID: Use module_hid_driver macro

2013-01-03T09:27:31+00:00

Use the new module_hid_driver macro in all HID drivers that have a simple register/unregister init/exit. This also converts the hid drivers that test for a failure of hid_register_driver() and report the failure. Using module_hid_driver in those drivers removes the failure message.

HID: ACRUX - handle gamepads with different report layout

2011-08-04T13:25:34+00:00

There are gamepads that share the same VID and PID but have different report structure - instead of having 4 fields with one value they have one field that can hold all 4 values. Make the driver cope with devices using both styles. Signed-off-by: Sergei Kolzun Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina
