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

NFC: nci: uart: Set tty->disc_data only in success path

2025-06-19T15:33:54+00:00

Setting tty->disc_data before opening the NCI device means we need to clean it up on error paths. This also opens some short window if device starts sending data, even before NCIUARTSETDRIVER IOCTL succeeded (broken hardware?). Close the window by exposing tty->disc_data only on the success path, when opening of the NCI device and try_module_get() succeeds. The code differs in error path in one aspect: tty->disc_data won't be ever assigned thus NULL-ified. This however should not be relevant difference, because of "tty->disc_data=NULL" in nci_uart_tty_open().

tty: ldops: unify to u8

2023-08-11T19:12:47+00:00

Some hooks in struct tty_ldisc_ops still reference buffers by 'unsigned char'. Unify to 'u8' as the rest of the tty layer does.

tty: use u8 for flags

2023-08-11T19:12:45+00:00

This makes all those 'char's an explicit 'u8'. This is part of the continuing unification of chars and flags to be consistent u8. This approaches tty_port_default_receive_buf(). Note that we do not change signedness as we compile with -funsigned-char.

tty: make tty_ldisc_ops::buf() hooks operate on size_t

2023-08-11T19:12:45+00:00

Count passed to tty_ldisc_ops::receive_buf*(), ::lookahead_buf(), and returned from ::receive_buf2() is expected to be size_t. So set it to size_t to unify with the rest of the code.

Pull tty / serial driver updates from Greg KH: "Here is the big set of tty and serial driver updates for 5.16-rc1. Nothing major in here at all, just lots of tiny serial and tty driver updates for various reported things, and some good cleanups. These include: - more good tty api cleanups from Jiri - stm32 serial driver updates - softlockup fix for non-preempt systems under high serial load - rpmsg serial driver update - 8250 drivers updates and fixes - n_gsm line discipline fixes and updates as people are finally starting to use it.
