<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bf4afc53b77aeaa48b5409da5c8da6bb4eff7f43</id>
<content type='text'>
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<id>urn:sha1:69050f8d6d075dc01af7a5f2f550a8067510366f</id>
<content type='text'>
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 *".

<title>kernel.h: drop hex.h and update all hex.h users</title>

<id>urn:sha1:24c776355f4097316a763005434ffff716aa21a8</id>
<content type='text'>
Remove &lt;linux/hex.h&gt; from &lt;linux/kernel.h&gt; and update all users/callers of
hex.h interfaces to directly #include &lt;linux/hex.h&gt; as part of the process
of putting kernel.h on a diet.

Removing hex.h from kernel.h means that 36K C source files don't have to
pay the price of parsing hex.h for the roughly 120 C source files that
need it.

This change has been build-tested with allmodconfig on most ARCHes.  Also,
all users/callers of &lt;linux/hex.h&gt; in the entire source tree have been
updated if needed (if not already #included).

Delete the external-module style Makefile commands. They are not needed
for in-tree modules.

This is the only Makefile in the kernel tree (aside from tools/ and
samples/) that uses this Makefile style.

The same files are built with or without this patch.

<content type='text'>
The second argument to the ioctl handlers is not a file handle any more.
The standard practice is to name it 'void *priv' in drivers. Many
drivers still name it 'void *fh', and a few use more exotic names.
Replace those more exotic names with 'void *priv' in all media drivers.

<id>urn:sha1:7af160aea26c7dc9e6734d19306128cce156ec40</id>
<content type='text'>
In the interrupt handler rain_interrupt(), the buffer full check on
rain-&gt;buf_len is performed before acquiring rain-&gt;buf_lock. This
creates a Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) race condition, as
rain-&gt;buf_len is concurrently accessed and modified in the work
handler rain_irq_work_handler() under the same lock.

Multiple interrupt invocations can race, with each reading buf_len
before it becomes full and then proceeding. This can lead to both
interrupts attempting to write to the buffer, incrementing buf_len
beyond its capacity (DATA_SIZE) and causing a buffer overflow.

Fix this bug by moving the spin_lock() to before the buffer full
check. This ensures that the check and the subsequent buffer modification
are performed atomically, preventing the race condition. An corresponding
spin_unlock() is added to the overflow path to correctly release the
lock.

This possible bug was found by an experimental static analysis tool
developed by our team.

As pointed by Coverity, there is a hidden overflow condition there.
As date is signed and u8 is unsigned, doing:

	date = (data[0] &lt;&lt; 24)

With a value bigger than 07f will make all upper bits of date
0xffffffff. This can be demonstrated with this small code:

&lt;code&gt;
typedef int64_t time64_t;
typedef uint8_t u8;

int main(void)
{
	u8 data[] = { 0xde ,0xad , 0xbe, 0xef };
	time64_t date;

	date = (data[0] &lt;&lt; 24) | (data[1] &lt;&lt; 16) | (data[2] &lt;&lt; 8) | data[3];
	printf("Invalid data = 0x%08lx\n", date);

	date = ((unsigned)data[0] &lt;&lt; 24) | (data[1] &lt;&lt; 16) | (data[2] &lt;&lt; 8) | data[3];
	printf("Expected data = 0x%08lx\n", date);

	return 0;
}
&lt;/code&gt;

Fix it by converting the upper bit calculation to unsigned.
