treewide: refresh kmalloc_obj() conversions

2026-09-05T04:37:00+00:00

This is another run of the Coccinelle script for converting kmalloc() family of allocations to kmalloc_obj() via the existing rules in scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci This catches both the set of kmalloc() uses added since the first kmalloc_obj() conversions in v7.0 and adds a large group missed in the first pass due to Coccinelle not interacting well with the cleanup.h scoped_...() family of macros[1]. I worked around this with spatch's "--macro-file" argument to a file with all the scoped_...() macros mapped to Coccinelle's YACFE_ITERATOR[2] as that was the closest viable control flow indicator I could find. Build tested allmodconfig on x86, arm64, arm, loongarch, mips, powerpc, riscv, and s390 with no new warnings.

dma-buf/udmabuf: Disable the size limit by default

2026-08-04T05:48:11+00:00

As udmabuf increasingly enjoys popularity - being used in projects like libcamera, Gstreamer, Mesa, KWin and Weston - users more frequently encounter cases where the current default size limit of 64MB is too low. Examples include allocating video buffers at a 8K resolution - and even 4K is affected when using non-subsampled video formats and high bit depths. In its current form the size limit for individual buffers does not seem to provide any additional level of protection - such as limiting the amount of memory a process can pin - as the later can just allocate multiple buffers. If additional guardrails are desired, they would likely require some kind accounting not limited to individual buffers. Therefor let's disable the size limit by default by setting it to the maximal possible value, INT_MAX.

udmabuf: Ensure to perform cache synchronisation in begin_cpu_udmabuf()

2026-07-10T23:26:39+00:00

The message of commit 504e2b4ab97a ("dma-buf/udmabuf: skip redundant cpu sync to fix cacheline EEXIST warning") says: > The CPU sync at map/unmap time is also redundant for udmabuf: > begin_cpu_udmabuf() and end_cpu_udmabuf() already perform explicit > cache synchronization via dma_sync_sgtable_for_cpu/device() when CPU > access is requested through the dma-buf interface. This, however, does not apply to the first time begin_cpu_udmabuf() is called on an udmabuf, in which case the implementation previously relied on get_sg_table() to perform the cache synchronisation. Ensure to call dma_sync_sgtable_for_cpu() in that case as well.

dma-buf/udmabuf: skip redundant cpu sync to fix cacheline EEXIST warning

2026-04-01T01:57:15+00:00

When CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG_SG is enabled, importing a udmabuf into a DRM driver (e.g. amdgpu for video playback in GNOME Videos / Showtime) triggers a spurious warning: DMA-API: amdgpu 0000:03:00.0: cacheline tracking EEXIST, \ overlapping mappings aren't supported WARNING: kernel/dma/debug.c:619 at add_dma_entry+0x473/0x5f0 The call chain is: amdgpu_cs_ioctl -> amdgpu_ttm_backend_bind -> dma_buf_map_attachment -> [udmabuf] map_udmabuf -> get_sg_table -> dma_map_sgtable(dev, sg, direction, 0) // attrs=0 -> debug_dma_map_sg -> add_dma_entry -> EEXIST This happens because udmabuf builds a per-page scatter-gather list via sg_set_folio(). When begin_cpu_udmabuf() has already created an sg table mapped for the misc device, and an importer such as amdgpu maps the same pages for its own device via map_udmabuf(), the DMA debug infrastructure sees two active mappings whose physical addresses share cacheline boundaries and warns about the overlap. The DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC flag suppresses this check in add_dma_entry() because it signals that no CPU cache maintenance is performed at map/unmap time, making the cacheline overlap harmless. All other major dma-buf exporters already pass this flag: - drm_gem_map_dma_buf() passes DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC - amdgpu_dma_buf_map() passes DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC The CPU sync at map/unmap time is also redundant for udmabuf: begin_cpu_udmabuf() and end_cpu_udmabuf() already perform explicit cache synchronization via dma_sync_sgtable_for_cpu/device() when CPU access is requested through the dma-buf interface. Pass DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC to dma_map_sgtable() and dma_unmap_sgtable() in udmabuf to suppress the spurious warning and skip the redundant sync.

udmabuf: fix DMA direction mismatch in release_udmabuf()

2026-03-31T00:48:01+00:00

begin_cpu_udmabuf() maps the sg_table with the caller-provided direction (e.g., DMA_TO_DEVICE for a write-only sync), and caches it in ubuf->sg for reuse. However, release_udmabuf() always unmaps this sg_table with a hardcoded DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL, regardless of the direction that was originally used for the mapping. With CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG=y this produces: DMA-API: misc udmabuf: device driver frees DMA memory with different direction [device address=0x000000044a123000] [size=4096 bytes] [mapped with DMA_TO_DEVICE] [unmapped with DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL] The issue was found during video playback when GStreamer performed a write-only DMA_BUF_IOCTL_SYNC on a udmabuf. It can be reproduced with CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG=y by creating a udmabuf from a memfd, performing a write-only sync (DMA_BUF_SYNC_WRITE without DMA_BUF_SYNC_READ), and closing the file descriptor. Fix this by storing the DMA direction used when the sg_table is first created in begin_cpu_udmabuf(), and passing that same direction to put_sg_table() in release_udmabuf().

udmabuf: Do not create malformed scatterlists

2026-03-31T00:47:26+00:00

Using a sg_set_folio() loop for every 4K results in a malformed scatterlist because sg_set_folio() has an issue with offsets > PAGE_SIZE and because scatterlist expects the creator to build a list which consolidates any physical contiguity. sg_alloc_table_from_pages() creates a valid scatterlist directly from a struct page array, so go back to that. Remove the offsets allocation and just store an array of tail pages as it did before the below commit. Everything wants that anyhow.

Convert more 'alloc_obj' cases to default GFP_KERNEL arguments

2026-02-22T04:03:00+00:00

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next line. Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial. So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed' scripts. The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want whitespace cleanup anyway. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

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
