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: serial: drop driver owner initialization

2024-08-26T13:28:25+00:00

Core in usb_serial_register_drivers() already sets the .owner, so driver does not need to. Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Kozlowski Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold

USB: serial: omninet: update driver description

2021-05-25T06:59:17+00:00

With the inclusion of Omni 56K Plus, this driver seem to be more common among the family of Zyxel omni modem. Update the driver and module descriptions. Signed-off-by: Alexandre GRIVEAUX [ johan: amend commit message ] Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold

USB: serial: omninet: add device id for Zyxel Omni 56K Plus

2021-05-25T06:56:02+00:00

Add device id for Zyxel Omni 56K Plus modem, this modem include: USB chip: NetChip NET2888 Main chip: 901041A F721501APGF Another modem using the same chips is the Zyxel Omni 56K DUO/NEO, could be added with the right USB ID.

USB: serial: make remove callback return void

2021-02-09T12:13:58+00:00

All usb_serial drivers return 0 in their remove callbacks and driver core ignores the value returned by usb_serial_device_remove(). So change the remove callback to return void and return 0 unconditionally in usb_serial_device_remove().

docs: usb: rename files to .rst and add them to drivers-api

2019-06-20T12:28:36+00:00

While there are a mix of things here, most of the stuff were written from Kernel developer's PoV. So, add them to the driver-api book. A follow up for this patch would be to move documents from there that are specific to sysadmins, adding them to the admin-guide.

USB: serial: fix module-license macros

2017-11-04T10:58:00+00:00

Several GPL-2.0 drivers used "GPL" rather than "GPL v2" in their MODULE_LICENSE macros; fix the macros to match the licenses. Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

USB: serial: 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.
