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: make devnode() callback in usb_class_driver take a const *

2022-10-20T10:11:56+00:00

With the changes to the driver core to make more pointers const, the USB subsystem also needs to be modified to take a const * for the devnode callback so that the driver core's constant pointer will also be properly propagated.

USB: legotower: fix logical error in recent commit

2020-12-08T18:55:09+00:00

Commit d9f0d82f06c6 ("USB: legousbtower: use usb_control_msg_recv()") contained an elementary logical error. The check of the return code from the new usb_control_msg_recv() function was inverted.

USB: legousbtower: use usb_control_msg_recv()

2020-09-25T14:33:59+00:00

The usb_control_msg_recv() function can handle data on the stack, as well as properly detecting short reads, so move to use that function instead of the older usb_control_msg() call. This ends up removing a lot of extra lines in the driver. v2: change API of usb_control_msg_send() Cc: Juergen Stuber Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200914153756.3412156-6-gregkh@linuxfoundation.org Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200923134348.23862-12-oneukum@suse.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
