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

rxrpc: Don't use received skbuff timestamps

2024-12-09T21:48:29+00:00

Don't use received skbuff timestamps, but rather set a timestamp when an ack is processed so that the time taken to get to rxrpc_input_ack() is included in the RTT. The timestamp of the latest ACK received is tracked in call->acks_latest_ts.

rxrpc: Fix a race between socket set up and I/O thread creation

2024-10-03T23:23:20+00:00

In rxrpc_open_socket(), it sets up the socket and then sets up the I/O thread that will handle it. This is a problem, however, as there's a gap between the two phases in which a packet may come into rxrpc_encap_rcv() from the UDP packet but we oops when trying to wake the not-yet created I/O thread. As a quick fix, just make rxrpc_encap_rcv() discard the packet if there's no I/O thread yet. A better, but more intrusive fix would perhaps be to rearrange things such that the socket creation is done by the I/O thread.

rxrpc: Do zerocopy using MSG_SPLICE_PAGES and page frags

2024-03-05T23:31:43+00:00

Switch from keeping the transmission buffers in the rxrpc_txbuf struct and allocated from the slab, to allocating them using page fragment allocators (which uses raw pages), thereby allowing them to be passed to MSG_SPLICE_PAGES and avoid copying into the UDP buffers.

rxrpc: Fix use of Don't Fragment flag

2024-01-12T00:41:41+00:00

rxrpc normally has the Don't Fragment flag set on the UDP packets it transmits, except when it has decided that DATA packets aren't getting through - in which case it turns it off just for the DATA transmissions. This can be a problem, however, for RESPONSE packets that convey authentication and crypto data from the client to the server as ticket may be larger than can fit in the MTU. In such a case, rxrpc gets itself into an infinite loop as the sendmsg returns an error (EMSGSIZE), which causes rxkad_send_response() to return -EAGAIN - and the CHALLENGE packet is put back on the Rx queue to retry, leading to the I/O thread endlessly attempting to perform the transmission. Fix this by disabling DF on RESPONSE packets for now. The use of DF and best data MTU determination needs reconsidering at some point in the future.

rxrpc: Fix two connection reaping bugs

2023-11-02T05:28:55+00:00

Fix two connection reaping bugs: (1) rxrpc_connection_expiry is in units of seconds, so rxrpc_disconnect_call() needs to multiply it by HZ when adding it to jiffies. (2) rxrpc_client_conn_reap_timeout() should set RXRPC_CLIENT_REAP_TIMER if local->kill_all_client_conns is clear, not if it is set (in which case we don't need the timer). Without this, old client connections don't get cleaned up until the local endpoint is cleaned up.
