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

Establish the rule that header files are always included in sorted (POSIX local) order. Standard and private headers are separated by a blank line. Similarly, sort all forward-declarations for structures. Signed-off-by: Alex Elder Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni

net: ipa: compute DMA pool size properly

2023-03-30T04:27:40+00:00

In gsi_trans_pool_init_dma(), the total size of a pool of memory used for DMA transactions is calculated. However the calculation is done incorrectly. For 4KB pages, this total size is currently always more than one page, and as a result, the calculation produces a positive (though incorrect) total size. The code still works in this case; we just end up with fewer DMA pool entries than we intended. Bjorn Andersson tested booting a kernel with 16KB pages, and hit a null pointer derereference in sg_alloc_append_table_from_pages(), descending from gsi_trans_pool_init_dma(). The cause of this was that a 16KB total size was going to be allocated, and with 16KB pages the order of that allocation is 0. The total_size calculation yielded 0, which eventually led to the crash. Correcting the total_size calculation fixes the problem.

net: ipa: Proactively round up to kmalloc bucket size

2022-10-20T08:13:54+00:00

Instead of discovering the kmalloc bucket size _after_ allocation, round up proactively so the allocation is explicitly made for the full size, allowing the compiler to correctly reason about the resulting size of the buffer through the existing __alloc_size() hint.

net: ipa: update comments

2022-10-03T23:49:05+00:00

This patch just updates comments throughout the IPA code. Transaction state is now tracked using indexes into an array rather than linked lists, and a few comments refer to the "old way" of doing things. The description of how transactions are used was changed to refer to "operations" rather than "commands", to (hopefully) remove a possible ambiguity. IPA register offsets and fields are now handled differently as well, and the register documentation is updated to better describe the code. A few minor updates to comments were made (e.g., adding a missing word, fixing a typo or punctuation, etc.). Finally, the local macro atomic_dec_not_zero() is no longer used, so it is deleted.

net: ipa: don't have gsi_channel_update() return a value

2022-09-09T10:45:25+00:00

If it finds no completed transactions, gsi_channel_trans_complete() calls gsi_channel_update() to check hardware. If new transactions have completed, gsi_channel_update() records that, then calls gsi_channel_trans_complete() to return the first of those found. This recursion won't go any further, but can be avoided if we have gsi_channel_update() only be responsible for updating state after accessing hardware. Change gsi_channel_update() so it simply checks for and handles new completions, without returning a value. If it needs to call that function, have gsi_channel_trans_complete() determine whether there are new transactions available after the update. Signed-off-by: Alex Elder Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
