Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using git grep -l '\

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

fbdev: atyfb: Check if pll_ops->init_pll failed

2025-10-28T21:59:19+00:00

Actually check the return value from pll_ops->init_pll() as it can return an error. If the card's BIOS didn't run because it's not the primary VGA card the fact that the xclk source is unsupported is printed as shown below but the driver continues on regardless and on my machine causes a hard lock up.

sysfs: treewide: switch back to bin_attribute::read()/write()

2025-06-17T08:44:13+00:00

The bin_attribute argument of bin_attribute::read() is now const. This makes the _new() callbacks unnecessary. Switch all users back.

treewide, timers: Rename from_timer() to timer_container_of()

2025-06-08T07:07:37+00:00

Move this API to the canonical timer_*() namespace. [ tglx: Redone against pre rc1 ] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/aB2X0jCKQO56WdMt@gmail.com

treewide: Switch/rename to timer_delete[_sync]()

2025-04-05T08:30:12+00:00

timer_delete[_sync]() replaces del_timer[_sync](). Convert the whole tree over and remove the historical wrapper inlines. Conversion was done with coccinelle plus manual fixups where necessary. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

fbdev: radeon: Use const 'struct bin_attribute' callbacks

2024-12-22T06:03:42+00:00

The sysfs core now provides callback variants that explicitly take a const pointer. Make use of it to match the attribute definitions. Signed-off-by: Thomas Weißschuh Signed-off-by: Helge Deller

move asm/unaligned.h to linux/unaligned.h

2024-10-02T21:23:23+00:00

asm/unaligned.h is always an include of asm-generic/unaligned.h; might as well move that thing to linux/unaligned.h and include that - there's nothing arch-specific in that header. auto-generated by the following: for i in `git grep -l -w asm/unaligned.h`; do sed -i -e "s/asm\/unaligned.h/linux\/unaligned.h/" $i done for i in `git grep -l -w asm-generic/unaligned.h`; do sed -i -e "s/asm-generic\/unaligned.h/linux\/unaligned.h/" $i done git mv include/asm-generic/unaligned.h include/linux/unaligned.h git mv tools/include/asm-generic/unaligned.h tools/include/linux/unaligned.h sed -i -e "/unaligned.h/d" include/asm-generic/Kbuild sed -i -e "s/__ASM_GENERIC/__LINUX/" include/linux/unaligned.h tools/include/linux/unaligned.h
