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

scsi: buslogic: Reduce stack usage

2026-02-04T03:31:13+00:00

Some randconfig builds run into excessive stack usage with gcc-14 or higher, which use __attribute__((cold)) where earlier versions did not do that: drivers/scsi/BusLogic.c: In function 'blogic_init': drivers/scsi/BusLogic.c:2398:1: error: the frame size of 1680 bytes is larger than 1536 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=] The problem is that a lot of code gets inlined into blogic_init() here. Two functions stick out, but they are a bit different: - blogic_init_probeinfo_list() actually uses a few hundred bytes of kernel stack, which is a problem in combination with other functions that also do. Marking this one as noinline means that the stack slots get get reused between function calls - blogic_reportconfig() has a few large variables, but whenever it is not inlined into its caller, the compiler is actually smart enough to reuse stack slots for these automatically, so marking it as noinline saves most of the stack space by itself. The combination of both of these should avoid the problem entirely. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260203163321.2598593-1-arnd@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Martin K.

scsi: Change the return type of the .queuecommand() callback

2026-01-24T02:32:34+00:00

In clang version 21.1 and later the -Wimplicit-enum-enum-cast warning option has been introduced. This warning is enabled by default and can be used to catch .queuecommand() implementations that return another value than 0 or one of the SCSI_MLQUEUE_* constants. Hence this patch that changes the return type of the .queuecommand() implementations from 'int' into 'enum scsi_qc_status'. No functionality has been changed.

2025-10-02T17:16:56+00:00

Pull block updates from Jens Axboe: - NVMe pull request via Keith: - FC target fixes (Daniel) - Authentication fixes and updates (Martin, Chris) - Admin controller handling (Kamaljit) - Target lockdep assertions (Max) - Keep-alive updates for discovery (Alastair) - Suspend quirk (Georg) - MD pull request via Yu: - Add support for a lockless bitmap. A key feature for the new bitmap are that the IO fastpath is lockless. If a user issues lots of write IO to the same bitmap bit in a short time, only the first write has additional overhead to update bitmap bit, no additional overhead for the following writes. By supporting only resync or recover written data, means in the case creating new array or replacing with a new disk, there is no need to do a full disk resync/recovery. - Switch ->getgeo() and ->bios_param() to using struct gendisk rather than struct block_device. - Rust block changes via Andreas. This series adds configuration via configfs and remote completion to the rnull driver. The series also includes a set of changes to the rust block device driver API: a few cleanup patches, and a few features supporting the rnull changes. The series removes the raw buffer formatting logic from `kernel::block` and improves the logic available in `kernel::string` to support the same use as the removed logic. - floppy arch cleanups - Reduce the number of dereferencing needed for ublk commands - Restrict supported sockets for nbd. Mostly done to eliminate a class of issues perpetually reported by syzbot, by using nonsensical socket setups. - A few s390 dasd block fixes - Fix a few issues around atomic writes - Improve DMA interation for integrity requests - Improve how iovecs are treated with regards to O_DIRECT aligment constraints. We used to require each segment to adhere to the constraints, now only the request as a whole needs to. - Clean up and improve p2p support, enabling use of p2p for metadata payloads - Improve locking of request lookup, using SRCU where appropriate - Use page references properly for brd, avoiding very long RCU sections - Fix ordering of recursively submitted IOs - Clean up and improve updating nr_requests for a live device - Various fixes and cleanups * tag 'for-6.18/block-20250929' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux: (164 commits) s390/dasd: enforce dma_alignment to ensure proper buffer validation s390/dasd: Return BLK_STS_INVAL for EINVAL from do_dasd_request ublk: remove redundant zone op check in ublk_setup_iod() nvme: Use non zero KATO for persistent discovery connections nvmet: add safety check for subsys lock nvme-core: use nvme_is_io_ctrl() for I/O controller check nvme-core: do ioccsz/iorcsz validation only for I/O controllers nvme-core: add method to check for an I/O controller blk-cgroup: fix possible deadlock while configuring policy blk-mq: fix null-ptr-deref in blk_mq_free_tags() from error path blk-mq: Fix more tag iteration function documentation selftests: ublk: fix behavior when fio is not installed ublk: don't access ublk_queue in ublk_unmap_io() ublk: pass ublk_io to __ublk_complete_rq() ublk: don't access ublk_queue in ublk_need_complete_req() ublk: don't access ublk_queue in ublk_check_commit_and_fetch() ublk: don't pass ublk_queue to ublk_fetch() ublk: don't access ublk_queue in ublk_config_io_buf() ublk: don't access ublk_queue in ublk_check_fetch_buf() ublk: pass q_id and tag to __ublk_check_and_get_req() ...

scsi: Always define blogic_pci_tbl structure

2025-09-24T16:10:44+00:00

The blogic_pci_tbl structure is used by the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE macro. There is no longer a need to protect it with the MODULE condition, since this no longer causes the compiler to warn about an unused variable. To avoid warnings when -Wunused-const-variable option is used, mark it as __maybe_unused for such configuration. Cc: Khalid Aziz Cc: Martin K.
