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: core: raid_class: Remove raid_component_add()

2023-08-25T01:34:28+00:00

The raid_component_add() function was added to the kernel tree via patch "[SCSI] embryonic RAID class" (2005). Remove this function since it never has had any callers in the Linux kernel. And also raid_component_release() is only used in raid_component_add(), so it is also removed.

scsi: core: Fix possible memory leak if device_add() fails

2023-08-08T01:34:08+00:00

If device_add() returns error, the name allocated by dev_set_name() needs be freed. As the comment of device_add() says, put_device() should be used to decrease the reference count in the error path. So fix this by calling put_device(), then the name can be freed in kobject_cleanp().

scsi: raid_attrs: fix unused variable warning

2018-08-30T11:21:04+00:00

I ran into a new warning on randconfig kernels: drivers/scsi/raid_class.c: In function 'raid_match': drivers/scsi/raid_class.c:64:24: error: unused variable 'i' [-Werror=unused-variable] This looks like a very old problem that for some reason was very hard to run into, but it is very easy to fix, by replacing the incorrect #ifdef with a simpler IS_ENABLED() check.

[SCSI] raid_attrs: fix dependency problems

2010-03-03T15:47:06+00:00

RAID attributes uses scsi_is_sdev_device() to gate some SCSI specific checking code. This causes two problems. Firstly if SCSI == n just defining scsi_is_sdev_device() to return false might not be enough to prevent gcc from emitting the code (and thus referring to undefined symbols), so this needs surrounding with an ifdef. Secondly, using scsi_is_sdev_device() when SCSI is either y or m gives a subtle problem in the m case: raid_attrs must also be m to use the symbol. Do the usual Kconfig jiggery-pokery to fix this.
