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

net: sched: fix TCF_LAYER_TRANSPORT handling in tcf_get_base_ptr()

2025-11-25T02:53:14+00:00

syzbot reported that tcf_get_base_ptr() can be called while transport header is not set [1]. Instead of returning a dangling pointer, return NULL. Fix tcf_get_base_ptr() callers to handle this NULL value.

net: Remove state argument from skb_find_text()

2015-02-22T20:59:54+00:00

Although it is clear that textsearch state is intentionally passed to skb_find_text() as uninitialized argument, it was never used by the callers. Therefore, we can simplify skb_find_text() by making it local variable. Signed-off-by: Bojan Prtvar Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: sched: remove tcf_proto from ematch calls

2014-10-06T22:02:32+00:00

This removes the tcf_proto argument from the ematch code paths that only need it to reference the net namespace. This allows simplifying qdisc code paths especially when we need to tear down the ematch from an RCU callback. In this case we can not guarentee that the tcf_proto structure is still valid.
