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

Replacing the manual pool remove with the dedicated function. This is safer and more consistent with the rest of the code[1].

When alloc_scq fails, card->vcs[0] (i.e. vc) should be freed.

The vc_maps are used to record open connections, so when close a vc_map in close_card_oam(), the memory should be freed. Moreover, the ubr0 is not closed when close a idt77252 device, leading to the memory leak of vc_map and scq_info. Fix them by adding kfree in close_card_oam() and implementing new close_card_ubr0() to close ubr0.

treewide: Convert del_timer() to timer_shutdown()

2022-12-25T21:38:09+00:00

Due to several bugs caused by timers being re-armed after they are shutdown and just before they are freed, a new state of timers was added called "shutdown". After a timer is set to this state, then it can no longer be re-armed. The following script was run to find all the trivial locations where del_timer() or del_timer_sync() is called in the same function that the object holding the timer is freed. It also ignores any locations where the timer->function is modified between the del_timer*() and the free(), as that is not considered a "trivial" case. This was created by using a coccinelle script and the following commands: $ cat timer.cocci @@ expression ptr, slab; identifier timer, rfield; @@ ( - del_timer(&ptr->timer); + timer_shutdown(&ptr->timer); | - del_timer_sync(&ptr->timer); + timer_shutdown_sync(&ptr->timer); ) ... when strict when != ptr->timer ( kfree_rcu(ptr, rfield); | kmem_cache_free(slab, ptr); | kfree(ptr); ) $ spatch timer.cocci . > /tmp/t.patch $ patch -p1 < /tmp/t.patch Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20221123201306.823305113@linutronix.de/ Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) Acked-by: Pavel Machek [ LED ] Acked-by: Kalle Valo [ wireless ] Acked-by: Paolo Abeni [ networking ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
