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

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

block: add a bio_init_inline helper

2025-09-09T13:31:59+00:00

Just a simpler wrapper around bio_init for callers that want to initialize a bio with inline bvecs. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Reviewed-by: John Garry Reviewed-by: Yu Kuai Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: turn bio_kmalloc into a simple kmalloc wrapper

2022-04-18T01:30:41+00:00

Remove the magic autofree semantics and require the callers to explicitly call bio_init to initialize the bio. This allows bio_free to catch accidental bio_put calls on bio_init()ed bios as well.

bcache: use bvec_kmap_local in bch_data_verify

2021-10-20T14:40:54+00:00

Using local kmaps slightly reduces the chances to stray writes, and the bvec interface cleans up the code a little bit. Also switch from page_address to bvec_kmap_local for cbv to be on the safe side and to avoid pointlessly poking into bvec internals.

bcache: fix a regression of code compiling failure in debug.c

2021-04-11T14:37:56+00:00

The patch "bcache: remove PTR_CACHE" introduces a compiling failure in debug.c with following error message, In file included from drivers/md/bcache/bcache.h:182:0, from drivers/md/bcache/debug.c:9: drivers/md/bcache/debug.c: In function 'bch_btree_verify': drivers/md/bcache/debug.c:53:19: error: 'c' undeclared (first use in this function) bio_set_dev(bio, c->cache->bdev); ^ This patch fixes the regression by replacing c->cache->bdev by b->c-> cache->bdev.

block: store a block_device pointer in struct bio

2021-01-25T01:17:20+00:00

Replace the gendisk pointer in struct bio with a pointer to the newly improved struct block device. From that the gendisk can be trivially accessed with an extra indirection, but it also allows to directly look up all information related to partition remapping.
