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

squashfs: add setlease file operation

2026-01-12T09:55:47+00:00

Add the setlease file_operation pointing to generic_setlease to the squashfs file_operations structures. A future patch will change the default behavior to reject lease attempts with -EINVAL when there is no setlease file operation defined. Add generic_setlease to retain the ability to set leases on this filesystem.

Squashfs: add SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE support

2025-09-28T18:36:14+00:00

Add support for SEEK_DATA and SEEK_HOLE lseek() whence values. These allow much faster searches for holes and data in sparse files, which can significantly speed up file copying, e.g. before (GNU coreutils, Debian 13): cp --sparse=always big-file / took real 11m58s, user 0m5.764s, sys 11m48s after: real 0.047s, user 0.000s, sys 0.027s Where big-file has a 256 GB hole followed by 47 KB of data.

squashfs: pass the inode to squashfs_readahead_fragment()

2025-07-10T05:57:50+00:00

Patch series "squashfs: Remove page->mapping references". We're close to being able to kill page->mapping. These two patches get us a little bit closer. This patch (of 2): Eliminate a reference to page->mapping by passing the inode from the caller.

squashfs: convert squashfs_fill_page() to take a folio

2025-01-25T06:47:22+00:00

squashfs_fill_page is only used in this file, so make it static. Use kmap_local instead of kmap_atomic, and return a bool so that the caller can use folio_end_read() which saves an atomic operation over calling folio_mark_uptodate() followed by folio_unlock(). [willy@infradead.org: fix polarity of "uptodate" Thanks to Ryan for testing] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20250110163300.3346321-2-willy@infradead.org Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20241220224634.723899-5-willy@infradead.org Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) Tested-by: Ryan Roberts Cc: Phillip Lougher Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton
