mm: simplify the mempool_alloc_bulk API

2026-06-03T16:20:47+00:00

The mempool_alloc_bulk was modelled after the alloc_pages_bulk API, including some misunderstanding of it. Remove checking for NULL slots in the array, as alloc_pages_bulk and kmem_cache_alloc_bulk always fill the array from the beginning and thus we know the offset of the first failing allocation. This removes support for working well with alloc_pages_bulk used to refill page arrays that might have an entry removed from in the middle, but that is only used by sunrpc and hopefully on it's way out. Also remove the allocated parameter as it is redundant because the caller can simply specific and offset into the entries array.

block: add a bio_endio_status helper

Add a helper that sets bi_status and call bio_endio() as that is a very common pattern and convert the core block code over to it.

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

blk-crypto: optimize data unit alignment checking

2026-01-11T19:55:41+00:00

Avoid the relatively high overhead of constructing and walking per-page segment bio_vecs for data unit alignment checking by merging the checks into existing loops. For hardware support crypto, perform the check in bio_split_io_at, which already contains a similar alignment check applied for all I/O. This means bio-based drivers that do not call bio_split_to_limits, should they ever grow blk-crypto support, need to implement the check themselves, just like all other queue limits checks. For blk-crypto-fallback do it in the encryption/decryption loops. This means alignment errors for decryption will only be detected after I/O has completed, but that seems like a worthwhile trade off.

blk-crypto: use mempool_alloc_bulk for encrypted bio page allocation

2026-01-11T19:55:41+00:00

Calling mempool_alloc in a loop is not safe unless the maximum allocation size times the maximum number of threads using it is less than the minimum pool size. Use the new mempool_alloc_bulk helper to allocate all missing elements in one pass to remove this deadlock risk. This also means that non-pool allocations now use alloc_pages_bulk which can be significantly faster than a loop over individual page allocations.

blk-crypto: use on-stack skcipher requests for fallback en/decryption

2026-01-11T19:55:41+00:00

Allocating a skcipher request dynamically can deadlock or cause unexpected I/O failures when called from writeback context. Avoid the allocation entirely by using on-stack skciphers, similar to what the non-blk-crypto fscrypt path already does. This drops the incomplete support for asynchronous algorithms, which previously could be used, but only synchronously.

blk-crypto: optimize bio splitting in blk_crypto_fallback_encrypt_bio

2026-01-11T19:55:41+00:00

The current code in blk_crypto_fallback_encrypt_bio is inefficient and prone to deadlocks under memory pressure: It first walks the passed in plaintext bio to see how much of it can fit into a single encrypted bio using up to BIO_MAX_VEC PAGE_SIZE segments, and then allocates a plaintext clone that fits the size, only to allocate another bio for the ciphertext later. While the plaintext clone uses a bioset to avoid deadlocks when allocations could fail, the ciphertex one uses bio_kmalloc which is a no-go in the file system I/O path. Switch blk_crypto_fallback_encrypt_bio to walk the source plaintext bio while consuming bi_iter without cloning it, and instead allocate a ciphertext bio at the beginning and whenever we fille up the previous one. The existing bio_set for the plaintext clones is reused for the ciphertext bios to remove the deadlock risk. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Reviewed-by: Eric Biggers Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe
