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

ocfs2: fix double free in user_cluster_connect()

2025-09-28T18:36:13+00:00

user_cluster_disconnect() frees "conn->cc_private" which is "lc" but then the error handling frees "lc" a second time. Set "lc" to NULL on this path to avoid a double free.

ocfs2: replace simple_strtol with kstrtol

kstrtol() is better because simple_strtol() ignores overflow. And using kstrtol() is more concise.

ocfs2: constify struct ocfs2_stack_operations

2024-06-25T05:25:10+00:00

"struct ocfs2_stack_operations" are not modified in this driver. Constifying this structure moves some data to a read-only section, so increase overall security. In order to do it, "struct ocfs2_stack_plugin" also needs to be adjusted to this new const qualifier.

ocfs2: adapt to breakup of struct file_lock

2024-02-05T12:11:43+00:00

Most of the existing APIs have remained the same, but subsystems that access file_lock fields directly need to reach into struct file_lock_core now.

filelock: split common fields into struct file_lock_core

2024-02-05T12:11:38+00:00

In a future patch, we're going to split file leases into their own structure. Since a lot of the underlying machinery uses the same fields move those into a new file_lock_core, and embed that inside struct file_lock. For now, add some macros to ensure that we can continue to build while the conversion is in progress.
