Convert 'alloc_flex' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument

2026-02-22T01:09:51+00:00

This is the exact same thing as the 'alloc_obj()' version, only much smaller because there are a lot fewer users of the *alloc_flex() interface. As with alloc_obj() version, this was done entirely with mindless brute force, using the same script, except using 'flex' in the pattern rather than 'objs*'. 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

pwm: Remove redundant check in pwm_ops_check()

ops->write_waveform is already known to be non-NULL so there is no need to check it a second time.

rust: io: separate generic I/O helpers from MMIO implementation

2026-01-23T20:20:11+00:00

The previous Io type combined both the generic I/O access helpers and MMIO implementation details in a single struct. This coupling prevented reusing the I/O helpers for other backends, such as PCI configuration space. Establish a clean separation between the I/O interface and concrete backends by separating generic I/O helpers from MMIO implementation. Introduce a new trait hierarchy to handle different access capabilities: - IoCapable: A marker trait indicating that a backend supports I/O operations of a certain type (u8, u16, u32, or u64). - Io trait: Defines fallible (try_read8, try_write8, etc.) and infallibile (read8, write8, etc.) I/O methods with runtime bounds checking and compile-time bounds checking. - IoKnownSize trait: The marker trait for types support infallible I/O methods. Move the MMIO-specific logic into a dedicated Mmio type that implements the Io traits. Rename IoRaw to MmioRaw and update consumers to use the new types.

pwm: tiehrpwm: Enable pwmchip's parent device before setting configuration

2026-01-21T17:41:46+00:00

The period and duty cycle configurations on J7200 and J784S4 SoCs does not get reflected after setting them using sysfs nodes. This is because at the end of ehrpwm_pwm_config function, the put_sync function is called which resets the hardware. Hold the PWM controller out of low-power mode during .apply() to make sure it accepts the writes to its registers. This renders the calls to pm_runtime_get_sync() and pm_runtime_put_sync() in ehrpwm_pwm_config() into no-ops, so these can be dropped.
