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

igbvf: remove redundant counter rx_long_byte_count from ethtool statistics

2025-09-03T17:07:27+00:00

rx_long_byte_count shows the value of the GORC (Good Octets Received Count) register. However, the register value is already shown as rx_bytes and they always show the same value. Remove rx_long_byte_count as the Intel ethernet driver e1000e did in commit 0a939912cf9c ("e1000e: cleanup redundant statistics counter"). Tested on Intel Corporation I350 Gigabit Network Connection.

igbvf: add lbtx_packets and lbtx_bytes to ethtool statistics

2025-09-03T17:07:26+00:00

Currently ethtool shows lbrx_packets and lbrx_bytes (Good RX Packets/Octets loopback Count), but doesn't show the TX-side equivalents (lbtx_packets and lbtx_bytes). Add visibility of those missing statistics by adding them to ethtool statistics. In addition, the order of lbrx_bytes and lbrx_packets is not consistent with non-loopback statistics (rx_packets, rx_bytes). Therefore, align the order by swapping positions of lbrx_bytes and lbrx_packets. Tested on Intel Corporation I350 Gigabit Network Connection. Before: # ethtool -S ens5 | grep -E "x_(bytes|packets)" rx_packets: 135 tx_packets: 106 rx_bytes: 16010 tx_bytes: 12451 lbrx_bytes: 1148 lbrx_packets: 12 After: # ethtool -S ens5 | grep -E "x_(bytes|packets)" rx_packets: 748 tx_packets: 304 rx_bytes: 81513 tx_bytes: 33698 lbrx_packets: 97 lbtx_packets: 109 lbrx_bytes: 12090 lbtx_bytes: 12401 Reviewed-by: Paul Menzel Signed-off-by: Kohei Enju Reviewed-by: Aleksandr Loktionov Reviewed-by: Simon Horman Tested-by: Rafal Romanowski Signed-off-by: Tony Nguyen

igbvf: remove unused fields from struct igbvf_adapter

2025-07-18T16:02:28+00:00

Remove following unused fields from struct igbvf_adapter that are never referenced in the driver. - blink_timer - eeprom_wol - fc_autoneg - int_mode - led_status - mng_vlan_id - polling_interval - rx_dma_failed - test_icr - test_rx_ring - test_tx_ring - tx_dma_failed - tx_fifo_head - tx_fifo_size - tx_head_addr Also removed the following fields from struct igbvf_adapter since they are never read or used after initialization by igbvf_probe() and igbvf_sw_init(). - bd_number - rx_abs_int_delay - tx_abs_int_delay - rx_int_delay - tx_int_delay This changes simplify the igbvf driver by removing unused fields, which improves maintenability.

igbvf: add tx_timeout_count to ethtool statistics

2025-07-03T16:39:04+00:00

Add `tx_timeout_count` to ethtool statistics to provide visibility into transmit timeout events, bringing igbvf in line with other Intel ethernet drivers. Currently `tx_timeout_count` is incremented in igbvf_watchdog_task() and igbvf_tx_timeout() but is not exposed to userspace nor used elsewhere in the driver. Before: # ethtool -S ens5 | grep tx tx_packets: 43 tx_bytes: 4408 tx_restart_queue: 0 After: # ethtool -S ens5 | grep tx tx_packets: 41 tx_bytes: 4241 tx_restart_queue: 0 tx_timeout_count: 0 Tested-by: Kohei Enju Signed-off-by: Kohei Enju Reviewed-by: Aleksandr Loktionov Tested-by: Rafal Romanowski Signed-off-by: Tony Nguyen

igbvf: remove unused interrupt counter fields from struct igbvf_adapter

2025-07-03T16:39:04+00:00

Remove `int_counter0` and `int_counter1` from struct igbvf_adapter since they are only incremented in interrupt handlers igbvf_intr_msix_rx() and igbvf_msix_other(), but never read or used anywhere in the driver. Note that igbvf_intr_msix_tx() does not have similar counter increments, suggesting that these were likely overlooked during development. Eliminate the fields and their unnecessary accesses in interrupt handlers. Tested-by: Kohei Enju Signed-off-by: Kohei Enju Reviewed-by: Aleksandr Loktionov Signed-off-by: Tony Nguyen
