Linux kernel stable tree (mirror) https://git.radix-linux.su/kernel/linux.git/atom?h=v7.0-rc7 2026-02-22T01:09:51+00:00 2026-02-22T01:09:51+00:00 Linus Torvalds torvalds@linux-foundation.org 2026-02-22T00:37:42+00:00 urn:sha1:bf4afc53b77aeaa48b5409da5c8da6bb4eff7f43 This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using git grep -l '\<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.

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 *".

Remove it and move the call to the previous branch.

L3 stats are provided for devices for which the L3 stats have been turned on, and that were enabled for netdevsim through a debugfs toggle: # echo $ifindex > /sys/kernel/debug/netdevsim/$DEV/hwstats/l3/enable_ifindex For fully enabled netdevices, netdevsim counts 10pps of ingress traffic and 20pps of egress traffic. Similarly, L3 stats can be disabled for a given device, and netdevsim ceases pretending there is any HW traffic going on: # echo $ifindex > /sys/kernel/debug/netdevsim/$DEV/hwstats/l3/disable_ifindex Besides this, there is a third toggle to mark a device for future failure: # echo $ifindex > /sys/kernel/debug/netdevsim/$DEV/hwstats/l3/fail_next_enable A future request to enable L3 stats on such netdevice will be bounced by netdevsim: # ip -j l sh dev d | jq '.[].ifindex' 66 # echo 66 > /sys/kernel/debug/netdevsim/netdevsim10/hwstats/l3/enable_ifindex # echo 66 > /sys/kernel/debug/netdevsim/netdevsim10/hwstats/l3/fail_next_enable # ip stats set dev d l3_stats on Error: netdevsim: Stats enablement set to fail.
