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

treewide: Drop pci_save_state() after pci_restore_state()

2025-11-24T22:58:59+00:00

In 2009, commit c82f63e411f1 ("PCI: check saved state before restore") changed the behavior of pci_restore_state() such that it became necessary to call pci_save_state() afterwards, lest recovery from subsequent PCI errors fails. The commit has just been reverted and so all the pci_save_state() after pci_restore_state() calls that have accumulated in the tree are now superfluous. Drop them. Two drivers chose a different approach to achieve the same result: drivers/scsi/ipr.c and drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/netdev.c set the pci_dev's "state_saved" flag to true before calling pci_restore_state(). Drop this as well.

scsi: Constify struct pci_error_handlers

2025-02-03T22:35:58+00:00

'struct pci_error_handlers' are not modified in these drivers. Constifying these structures moves some data to a read-only section, so increase overall security, especially when the structure holds some function pointers. On a x86_64, with allmodconfig, as an example: Before: ====== text data bss dec hex filename 39049 6429 112 45590 b216 drivers/scsi/aacraid/linit.o After: ===== text data bss dec hex filename 39113 6365 112 45590 b216 drivers/scsi/aacraid/linit.o Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/efdec8425981e10fc398fa2ac599c9c45d930561.1737318548.git.christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr Signed-off-by: Martin K.

scsi: bfa: Replace all non-returning strlcpy() with strscpy()

2023-05-17T01:38:36+00:00

strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first. This read may exceed the destination size limit. This is both inefficient and can lead to linear read overflows if a source string is not NUL-terminated [1]. In an effort to remove strlcpy() completely [2], replace strlcpy() here with strscpy(). No return values were used, so direct replacement is safe.

scsi: bfa: Drop redundant pci_enable_pcie_error_reporting()

2023-03-10T03:00:38+00:00

pci_enable_pcie_error_reporting() enables the device to send ERR_* Messages. Since commit f26e58bf6f54 ("PCI/AER: Enable error reporting when AER is native"), the PCI core does this for all devices during enumeration, so the driver doesn't need to do it itself. Remove the redundant pci_enable_pcie_error_reporting() call from the driver. Also remove the corresponding pci_disable_pcie_error_reporting() from the driver .remove() path. Note that this only controls ERR_* Messages from the device. An ERR_* Message may cause the Root Port to generate an interrupt, depending on the AER Root Error Command register managed by the AER service driver.
