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

amdtee: Sort header includes

2025-04-29T08:57:57+00:00

Various headers have been added over time that are not added alphabetically and a private header is used before one of the linux/ headers. Resort the list. Signed-off-by: Mario Limonciello Reviewed-by: Sumit Garg Signed-off-by: Jens Wiklander

amdtee: Use pr_fmt for messages

2025-04-29T08:57:40+00:00

amd-tee inconsistently uses the word amd-tee in error messages. Add a `pr_fmt()` define and remove the hardcoded use of amd-tee. Also, remove the unnecessary driver init successful message because there will be a message if failed and a user can assume it was successful otherwise.

tee: Refactor TEE subsystem header files

2024-04-03T07:19:31+00:00

Since commit 25559c22cef8 ("tee: add kernel internal client interface"), it has been a common include/linux/tee_drv.h header file which is shared to hold TEE subsystem internal bits along with the APIs exposed to the TEE client drivers. However, this practice is prone to TEE subsystem internal APIs abuse and especially so with the new TEE implementation drivers being added to reuse existing functionality. In order to address this split TEE subsystem internal bits as a separate header file: include/linux/tee_core.h which should be the one used by TEE implementation drivers. With that include/linux/tee_drv.h lists only APIs exposed by TEE subsystem to the TEE client drivers. Signed-off-by: Sumit Garg Signed-off-by: Balint Dobszay Signed-off-by: Jens Wiklander

tee: amdtee: fix use-after-free vulnerability in amdtee_close_session

2023-10-03T17:13:53+00:00

There is a potential race condition in amdtee_close_session that may cause use-after-free in amdtee_open_session. For instance, if a session has refcount == 1, and one thread tries to free this session via: kref_put(&sess->refcount, destroy_session); the reference count will get decremented, and the next step would be to call destroy_session(). However, if in another thread, amdtee_open_session() is called before destroy_session() has completed execution, alloc_session() may return 'sess' that will be freed up later in destroy_session() leading to use-after-free in amdtee_open_session. To fix this issue, treat decrement of sess->refcount and removal of 'sess' from session list in destroy_session() as a critical section, so that it is executed atomically.

tee: amdtee: fix race condition in amdtee_open_session

2023-02-28T17:39:19+00:00

There is a potential race condition in amdtee_open_session that may lead to use-after-free. For instance, in amdtee_open_session() after sess->sess_mask is set, and before setting: sess->session_info[i] = session_info; if amdtee_close_session() closes this same session, then 'sess' data structure will be released, causing kernel panic when 'sess' is accessed within amdtee_open_session(). The solution is to set the bit sess->sess_mask as the last step in amdtee_open_session().

tee: amdtee: unload TA only when its refcount becomes 0

2021-05-05T11:00:11+00:00

Same Trusted Application (TA) can be loaded in multiple TEE contexts. If it is a single instance TA, the TA should not get unloaded from AMD Secure Processor, while it is still in use in another TEE context. Therefore reference count TA and unload it when the count becomes zero.
