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

tee: Add probe, remove and shutdown bus callbacks to tee_client_driver

2025-12-17T17:28:28+00:00

Introduce a bus specific probe, remove and shutdown function. For now this only allows to get rid of a cast of the generic device to a tee_client device in the drivers and changes the remove prototype to return void---a non-zero return value is ignored anyhow. The objective is to get rid of users of struct device_driver callbacks .probe(), .remove() and .shutdown() to eventually remove these. Until all tee_client drivers are converted this results in a runtime warning about the drivers needing an update because there is a bus probe function and a driver probe function.

Merge tag 'tee-qcomtee-for-v6.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jenswi/linux-tee into soc/drivers

Add Qualcomm TEE driver (QTEE) This introduces a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) driver for Qualcomm TEE (QTEE). QTEE enables Trusted Applications (TAs) and services to run securely. It uses an object-based interface, where each service is an object with sets of operations. Kernel and userspace services are also available to QTEE through a similar approach. QTEE makes callback requests that are converted into object invocations. These objects can represent services within the kernel or userspace process. We extend the TEE subsystem to understand object parameters and an ioctl call so client can invoke objects in QTEE: - TEE_IOCTL_PARAM_ATTR_TYPE_OBJREF_* - TEE_IOC_OBJECT_INVOKE The existing ioctl calls TEE_IOC_SUPPL_RECV and TEE_IOC_SUPPL_SEND are used for invoking services in the userspace process by QTEE. The TEE backend driver uses the QTEE Transport Message to communicate with QTEE. Interactions through the object INVOKE interface are translated into QTEE messages. Likewise, object invocations from QTEE for userspace objects are converted into SEND/RECV ioctl calls to supplicants. * tag 'tee-qcomtee-for-v6.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jenswi/linux-tee: Documentation: tee: Add Qualcomm TEE driver tee: qcom: enable TEE_IOC_SHM_ALLOC ioctl tee: qcom: add primordial object tee: add Qualcomm TEE driver tee: increase TEE_MAX_ARG_SIZE to 4096 tee: add TEE_IOCTL_PARAM_ATTR_TYPE_OBJREF tee: add TEE_IOCTL_PARAM_ATTR_TYPE_UBUF tee: add close_context to TEE driver operation tee: allow a driver to allocate a tee_device without a pool Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250915174957.GA2040478@rayden Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

tee: add TEE_IOCTL_PARAM_ATTR_TYPE_OBJREF

2025-09-15T15:34:06+00:00

The TEE subsystem allows session-based access to trusted services, requiring a session to be established to receive a service. This is not suitable for an environment that represents services as objects. An object supports various operations that a client can invoke, potentially generating a result or a new object that can be invoked independently of the original object. Add TEE_IOCTL_PARAM_ATTR_TYPE_OBJREF_INPUT/OUTPUT/INOUT to represent an object. Objects may reside in either TEE or userspace. To invoke an object in TEE, introduce a new ioctl. Use the existing SUPPL_RECV and SUPPL_SEND to invoke an object in userspace.

For drivers that can transfer data to the TEE without using shared memory from client, it is necessary to receive the user address directly, bypassing any processing by the TEE subsystem.
