net: remove unused ATM protocols and legacy ATM device drivers

2026-04-23T19:21:14+00:00

Remove the ATM protocol modules and PCI/SBUS ATM device drivers that are no longer in active use. The ATM core protocol stack, PPPoATM, BR2684, and USB DSL modem drivers (drivers/usb/atm/) are retained in-tree to maintain PPP over ATM (PPPoA) and PPPoE-over-BR2684 support for DSL connections. The Solos ADSL2+ PCI driver is also retained. Removed ATM protocol modules: - net/atm/clip.c - Classical IP over ATM (RFC 2225) - net/atm/lec.c - LAN Emulation Client (LANE) - net/atm/mpc.c, mpoa_caches.c, mpoa_proc.c - Multi-Protocol Over ATM Removed PCI/SBUS ATM device drivers (drivers/atm/): - adummy, atmtcp - software/testing ATM devices - eni - Efficient Networks ENI155P (OC-3, ~1995) - fore200e - FORE Systems 200E PCI/SBUS (OC-3, ~1999) - he - ForeRunner HE (OC-3/OC-12, ~2000) - idt77105 - IDT 77105 25 Mbps ATM PHY - idt77252 - IDT 77252 NICStAR II (OC-3, ~2000) - iphase - Interphase ATM PCI (OC-3/DS3/E3) - lanai - Efficient Networks Speedstream 3010 - nicstar - IDT 77201 NICStAR (155/25 Mbps, ~1999) - suni - PMC S/UNI SONET PHY library Also clean up references in: - net/bridge/ - remove ATM LANE hook (br_fdb_test_addr_hook, br_fdb_test_addr) - net/core/dev.c - remove br_fdb_test_addr_hook export - defconfig files - remove ATM driver config options The removed code is moved to an out-of-tree module package (mod-orphan).

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

atm: clip: Fix infinite recursive call of clip_push().

2025-07-10T00:52:26+00:00

syzbot reported the splat below. [0] This happens if we call ioctl(ATMARP_MKIP) more than once. During the first call, clip_mkip() sets clip_push() to vcc->push(), and the second call copies it to clip_vcc->old_push(). Later, when the socket is close()d, vcc_destroy_socket() passes NULL skb to clip_push(), which calls clip_vcc->old_push(), triggering the infinite recursion. Let's prevent the second ioctl(ATMARP_MKIP) by checking vcc->user_back, which is allocated by the first call as clip_vcc. Note also that we use lock_sock() to prevent racy calls.

atm: clip: Fix memory leak of struct clip_vcc.

2025-07-10T00:52:26+00:00

ioctl(ATMARP_MKIP) allocates struct clip_vcc and set it to vcc->user_back. The code assumes that vcc_destroy_socket() passes NULL skb to vcc->push() when the socket is close()d, and then clip_push() frees clip_vcc. However, ioctl(ATMARPD_CTRL) sets NULL to vcc->push() in atm_init_atmarp(), resulting in memory leak. Let's serialise two ioctl() by lock_sock() and check vcc->push() in atm_init_atmarp() to prevent memleak.

atmarpd is protected by RTNL since commit f3a0592b37b8 ("[ATM]: clip causes unregister hang"). However, it is not enough because to_atmarpd() is called without RTNL, especially clip_neigh_solicit() / neigh_ops->solicit() is unsleepable. Also, there is no RTNL dependency around atmarpd. Let's use a private mutex and RCU to protect access to atmarpd in to_atmarpd().
