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: remove third argument of usb_maxpacket()

2022-04-23T08:33:53+00:00

The third argument of usb_maxpacket(): in_out has been deprecated because it could be derived from the second argument (e.g. using usb_pipeout(pipe)). N.B. function usb_maxpacket() was made variadic to accommodate the transition from the old prototype with three arguments to the new one with only two arguments (so that no renaming is needed). The variadic argument is to be removed once all users of usb_maxpacket() get migrated.

USB: lvtest: return proper error code in probe

2020-08-18T09:55:23+00:00

lvs_rh_probe() can return some nonnegative value from usb_control_msg() when it is less than "USB_DT_HUB_NONVAR_SIZE + 2" that is considered as a failure. Make lvs_rh_probe() return -EINVAL in this case. Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).

USB: lvstest: convert to use dev_groups

2019-08-09T05:55:44+00:00

USB drivers now support the ability for the driver core to handle the creation and removal of device-specific sysfs files in a race-free manner. Take advantage of that by converting the driver to use this by moving the sysfs attributes into a group and assigning the dev_groups pointer to it.

USB: misc: Remove redundant license text

2017-11-04T10:55:38+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.

usb: misc: lvstest: add entry to place port in compliance mode

2017-08-28T09:43:39+00:00

Add support for the SuperSpeed Link Layer test case TD.7.34 which requires the operator to place the port into compliance mode, and to subsequently bring it out via reset. Historically according to the (now deprecated) USB 3.0 specification a SuperSpeed host downstream port would automatically transition to Compliance mode from the Polling state if LFPS polling times out. However the language in USB 3.1 as well as xHCI 1.1 states it may be required to explicitly enable this transition. For such hosts this is done by sending a SET_FEATURE(PORT_LINK_STATE) with the state set to Compliance to the root hub port. Similar to the other supported commands, to do this via sysfs: echo > /sys/bus/usb/devices/2-0\:1.0/enable_compliance According to xHCI 1.1 section 4.19.1.2.4.1, this enables the transition to compliance mode upon LFPS timeout. Note that this can only be issued when the port is in disconnected state. And in order to disable this behavior on subsequent transitions, a warm reset should be issued. So add another entry to do that: echo > /sys/bus/usb/devices/2-0\:1.0/warm_reset In general these attributes can also be useful for other USB SuperSpeed compliance tests such as electrical and eye diagram testing which require CPn patterns to be transmitted.

USB: lvstest: tighten endpoint sanity check

2017-03-29T09:53:15+00:00

Use the new endpoint helpers to lookup the required interrupt-in endpoint. Note that this in fact both loosens and tightens the endpoint sanity check by accepting any interface with an interrupt-in endpoint rather than always using the first endpoint without verifying its type.
