Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument

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

ALSA: aoa: Remove redundant size arguments from strscpy()

2025-09-12T05:54:40+00:00

The size parameter of strscpy() is optional if the destination buffer has a fixed length and strscpy() can automatically determine its size using sizeof(). This makes many explicit size arguments redundant. Remove them to shorten and simplify the code. No functional changes intended. Signed-off-by: Thorsten Blum Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai

ALSA: aoa: Use guard() for mutex locks

Replace the manual mutex lock/unlock pairs with guard() for code simplification. Only code refactoring, and no behavior change. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250829151335.7342-14-tiwai@suse.de

ALSA: aoa: Use -y instead of -objs in Makefile

2024-05-08T16:18:08+00:00

*-objs suffix is reserved rather for (user-space) host programs while usually *-y suffix is used for kernel drivers (although *-objs works for that purpose for now). Let's correct the old usages of *-objs in Makefiles.

ALSA: Convert strlcpy to strscpy when return value is unused

2021-01-08T08:30:05+00:00

strlcpy is deprecated. see: Documentation/process/deprecated.rst Change the calls that do not use the strlcpy return value to the preferred strscpy. Done with cocci script: @@ expression e1, e2, e3; @@ - strlcpy( + strscpy( e1, e2, e3); This cocci script leaves the instances where the return value is used unchanged. After this patch, sound/ has 3 uses of strlcpy() that need to be manually inspected for conversion and changed one day. $ git grep -w strlcpy sound/ sound/usb/card.c: len = strlcpy(card->longname, s, sizeof(card->longname)); sound/usb/mixer.c: return strlcpy(buf, p->name, buflen); sound/usb/mixer.c: return strlcpy(buf, p->names[index], buflen); Miscellenea: o Remove trailing whitespace in conversion of sound/core/hwdep.c Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAHk-=wgfRnXz0W3D37d01q3JFkr_i_uTL=V6A6G1oUZcprmknw@mail.gmail.com/ Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Acked-by: Mark Brown Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/22b393d1790bb268769d0bab7bacf0866dcb0c14.camel@perches.com Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai

ALSA: snd-aoa: add of_node_put() in error path

2018-06-29T18:35:14+00:00

Both calls to of_find_node_by_name() and of_get_next_child() return a node pointer with refcount incremented thus it must be explicidly decremented here after the last usage. As we are assured to have a refcounted np either from the initial of_find_node_by_name(NULL, name); or from the of_get_next_child(gpio, np) in the while loop if we reached the error code path below, an x of_node_put(np) is needed.
