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

pinctrl: devicetree: do not goto err when probing hogs in pinctrl_dt_to_map

2025-02-16T23:16:01+00:00

Cross case in pinctrl framework make impossible to an hogged pin and another, not hogged, used within the same device-tree node. For example with this simplified device-tree : &pinctrl { pinctrl_pin_1: pinctrl-pin-1 { pins = "dummy-pinctrl-pin"; }; }; &rtc { pinctrl-names = "default" pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_pin_1 &rtc_pin_1> rtc_pin_1: rtc-pin-1 { pins = "dummy-rtc-pin"; }; }; "pinctrl_pin_1" configuration is never set. This produces this path in the code: really_probe() pinctrl_bind_pins() | devm_pinctrl_get() | pinctrl_get() | create_pinctrl() | pinctrl_dt_to_map() | // Hog pin create an abort for all pins of the node | ret = dt_to_map_one_config() | | /* Do not defer probing of hogs (circular loop) */ | | if (np_pctldev == p->dev->of_node) | | return -ENODEV; | if (ret) | goto err | call_driver_probe() stm32_rtc_probe() pinctrl_enable() pinctrl_claim_hogs() create_pinctrl() for_each_maps(maps_node, i, map) // Not hog pin is skipped if (pctldev && strcmp(dev_name(pctldev->dev), map->ctrl_dev_name)) continue; At the first call of create_pinctrl() the hogged pin produces an abort to avoid a defer of hogged pins. All other pin configurations are trashed. At the second call, create_pinctrl is now called with pctldev parameter to get hogs, but in this context only hogs are set. And other pins are skipped. To handle this, do not produce an abort in the first call of create_pinctrl(). Classic pin configuration will be set in pinctrl_bind_pins() context. And the hogged pin configuration will be set in pinctrl_claim_hogs() context.

pinctrl: devicetree: fix refcount leak in pinctrl_dt_to_map()

2024-04-16T13:32:48+00:00

If we fail to allocate propname buffer, we need to drop the reference count we just took. Because the pinctrl_dt_free_maps() includes the droping operation, here we call it directly.

pinctrl: devicetree: Delete usage of driver_deferred_probe_check_state()

2022-06-10T13:57:54+00:00

Now that fw_devlink=on by default and fw_devlink supports "pinctrl-[0-8]" property, the execution will never get to the point where driver_deferred_probe_check_state() is called before the supplier has probed successfully or before deferred probe timeout has expired. So, delete the call and replace it with -ENODEV.

pinctrl: devicetree: Keep deferring even on timeout

2020-09-12T16:19:53+00:00

driver_deferred_probe_check_state() may return -ETIMEDOUT instead of -EPROBE_DEFER after all built-in drivers have been probed. This can cause issues for built-in drivers that depend on resources provided by loadable modules. One such case happens on Tegra where I2C controllers are used during early boot to set up the system PMIC, so the I2C driver needs to be a built-in driver. At the same time, some instances of the I2C controller depend on the DPAUX hardware for pinmuxing. Since the DPAUX is handled by the display driver, which is usually not built-in, the pin control states will not become available until after the root filesystem has been mounted and the display driver loaded from it.
