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

net: usb: introduce usbnet_mii_ioctl helper function

2026-02-04T03:41:19+00:00

Many USB network drivers use identical code to pass ioctl requests on to the MII layer. Reduce code duplication by refactoring this code into a helper function.

net: usb: remove unnecessary get_drvinfo code and driver versions

2026-01-31T01:44:18+00:00

Many USB network drivers define get_drvinfo functions which add no value over usbnet_get_drvinfo, only setting the driver name and version. usbnet_get_drvinfo automatically sets the driver name, and separate driver versions are now frowned upon in the kernel. Remove all driver versions and replace these get_drvinfo functions with references to usbnet_get_drvinfo where possible. Where that is not possible, remove unnecessary code to set the driver name. Also remove two unnecessary initializations from aqc111_get_drvinfo, an inaccurate comment in pegasus.c, and an unused macro in catc.c.

net: usb: smsc75xx: stop lying about skb->truesize

2024-05-08T00:38:48+00:00

Some usb drivers try to set small skb->truesize and break core networking stacks. In this patch, I removed one of the skb->truesize override. I also replaced one skb_clone() by an allocation of a fresh and small skb, to get minimally sized skbs, like we did in commit 1e2c61172342 ("net: cdc_ncm: reduce skb truesize in rx path") and 4ce62d5b2f7a ("net: usb: ax88179_178a: stop lying about skb->truesize") Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Cc: Steve Glendinning Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240506142358.3657918-1-edumazet@google.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski
