Convert more 'alloc_obj' cases to default GFP_KERNEL arguments

2026-02-22T04:03:00+00:00

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next line. Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial. So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed' scripts. The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want whitespace cleanup anyway. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

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

bna: bnad_dim_timeout: Rename del_timer_sync in comment

2025-04-14T22:49:28+00:00

Commit 8fa7292fee5c ("treewide: Switch/rename to timer_delete[_sync]()") switched del_timer_sync to timer_delete_sync, but did not modify the comment for bnad_dim_timeout(). Now fix it.

timer_delete[_sync]() replaces del_timer[_sync](). Convert the whole tree over and remove the historical wrapper inlines. Conversion was done with coccinelle plus manual fixups where necessary. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

net: gro: decouple GRO from the NAPI layer

2025-02-27T13:03:14+00:00

In fact, these two are not tied closely to each other. The only requirements to GRO are to use it in the BH context and have some sane limits on the packet batches, e.g. NAPI has a limit of its budget (64/8/etc.). Move purely GRO fields into a new structure, &gro_node. Embed it into &napi_struct and adjust all the references. gro_node::cached_napi_id is effectively the same as napi_struct::napi_id, but to be used on GRO hotpath to mark skbs. napi_struct::napi_id is now a fully control path field. Three Ethernet drivers use napi_gro_flush() not really meant to be exported, so move it to and add that include there. napi_gro_receive() is used in more than 100 drivers, keep it in . This does not make GRO ready to use outside of the NAPI context yet.

bna: Remove field bnad_dentry_files[] in struct bnad

2024-10-31T01:51:52+00:00

Function debugfs_remove() recursively removes a directory, include all files created by debugfs_create_file(). Therefore, there is no need to explicitly record each file with member ->bnad_dentry_files[] and explicitly delete them at the end. Remove field bnad_dentry_files[] and its related processing codes for simplification.

Driver bna can work fine even if any previous call to debugfs create APIs failed. All return value checks of them should be dropped, as debugfs APIs say.
