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: seq: dummy: Allow UMP conversion

2024-04-19T10:11:47+00:00

Although the purpose of dummy seq client is a direct pass-through, it's sometimes helpful for debugging if it can convert to a certain UMP MIDI version. This patch adds an option to specify the UMP event conversion. As default, it skips the conversion and does passthrough, while user can pass ump=1 or ump=2 to enforce the conversion to UMP MIDI1 or MIDI2 format.

ALSA: seq: Allow suppressing UMP conversions

2023-05-23T10:11:32+00:00

A sequencer client like seq_dummy rather doesn't want to convert UMP events but receives / sends as is. Add a new event filter flag to suppress the automatic UMP conversion and applies accordingly.

ALSA: seq: Add port direction to snd_seq_port_info

2023-05-23T10:11:25+00:00

Add a new field "direction" to snd_seq_port_info for allowing a client to tell the expected direction of the port access. A port might still allow subscriptions for read/write (e.g. for MIDI-CI) even if the primary usage of the port is a single direction (either input or output only). This new "direction" field can help to indicate such cases. When the direction is unspecified at creating a port and the port has either read or write capability, the corresponding direction bits are set automatically as default.

ALSA: seq: Fix comments of wrong client number for MIDI Passthrough

2021-07-27T10:53:00+00:00

MIDI Passthrough sequencer client is assigned always to the fixed number 14, while it's wrongly documented in the comments as if 62, which was an old number that was used during development. Fix all those numbers. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210727105232.7321-1-tiwai@suse.de Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai

ALSA: seq: Fix assignment in if condition

2021-06-09T15:30:26+00:00

There are lots of places doing assignments in if condition in ALSA sequencer core, which is a bad coding style that may confuse readers and occasionally lead to bugs. This patch is merely for coding-style fixes, no functional changes. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210608140540.17885-57-tiwai@suse.de Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai

The autoload lock became already superfluous due to the recent rework of autoload code. Let's drop them now. This allows us to simplify a few codes nicely. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai

ALSA: seq-dummy: remove deadlock-causing events on close

2015-01-26T12:53:13+00:00

When the last subscriber to a "Through" port has been removed, the subscribed destination ports might still be active, so it would be wrong to send "all sounds off" and "reset controller" events to them. The proper place for such a shutdown would be the closing of the actual MIDI port (and close_substream() in rawmidi.c already can do this). This also fixes a deadlock when dummy_unuse() tries to send events to its own port that is already locked because it is being freed.
