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: Distinguish between interlaced and progressive modes

2018-07-24T17:11:24+00:00

I discovered the problem when developing a frame buffer driver for the PlayStation 2 (not yet merged), using the following video modes for the PlayStation 3 in drivers/video/fbdev/ps3fb.c: }, { /* 1080if */ "1080if", 50, 1920, 1080, 13468, 148, 484, 36, 4, 88, 5, FB_SYNC_BROADCAST, FB_VMODE_INTERLACED }, { /* 1080pf */ "1080pf", 50, 1920, 1080, 6734, 148, 484, 36, 4, 88, 5, FB_SYNC_BROADCAST, FB_VMODE_NONINTERLACED }, In ps3fb_probe, the mode_option module parameter is used with fb_find_mode but it can only select the interlaced variant of 1920x1080 since the loop matching the modes does not take the difference between interlaced and progressive modes into account. In short, without the patch, progressive 1920x1080 cannot be chosen as a mode_option parameter since fb_find_mode (falsely) thinks interlace is a perfect match.
