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

usb: gadget: Constify struct configfs_item_operations and configfs_group_operations

2025-12-23T14:31:01+00:00

'struct configfs_item_operations' and 'configfs_group_operations' are not modified in these drivers. Constifying these structures moves some data to a read-only section, so increases 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 65061 20968 256 86285 1510d drivers/usb/gadget/configfs.o After: ===== text data bss dec hex filename 66181 19848 256 86285 1510d drivers/usb/gadget/configfs.o Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET Link: https://patch.msgid.link/49cec1cb84425f854de80b6d69b53a5a3cda8189.1766164523.git.christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

usb: gadget: u_serial: make OBEX port not a console

2019-10-22T07:27:09+00:00

Prevent OBEX serial port from ever becoming a console. Console messages will definitely break the protocol, and since you have to instantiate the port making it explicitly for OBEX, there is no point in allowing console to break it by mistake.

USB: gadget: function: Remove redundant license text

2017-11-07T14:45:02+00:00

Now that the SPDX tag is in all USB files, that identifies the license in a specific and legally-defined manner. So the extra GPL text wording can be removed as it is no longer needed at all. This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in the kernel describe the GPL license text. And there's unneeded stuff like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never needed. No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

USB: add SPDX identifiers to all remaining files in drivers/usb/

2017-11-04T10:48:02+00:00

It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to audit the kernel tree for correct licenses. Update the drivers/usb/ and include/linux/usb* files with the correct SPDX license identifier based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.
