2026-03-18dm init: ensure device probing has finished in dm-mod.waitfor=Guillaume Gonnet
The early_lookup_bdev() function returns successfully when the disk device is present but not necessarily its partitions. In this situation, dm_early_create() fails as the partition block device does not exist yet. In my case, this phenomenon occurs quite often because the device is an SD card with slow reading times, on which kernel takes time to enumerate available partitions. Fortunately, the underlying device is back to "probing" state while enumerating partitions. Waiting for all probing to end is enough to fix this issue. That's also the reason why this problem never occurs with rootwait= parameter: the while loop inside wait_for_root() explicitly waits for probing to be done and then the function calls async_synchronize_full(). These lines were omitted in 035641b, even though the commit says it's based on the rootwait logic... Anyway, calling wait_for_device_probe() after our while loop does the job (it both waits for probing and calls async_synchronize_full).

2026-02-21Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argumentLinus Torvalds
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' | xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/' to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL argument to just drop that argument. Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered: they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically. For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate conversion. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2026-02-21treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar typesKees Cook
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 <kees@kernel.org>
2024-07-02dm init: Handle minors larger than 255Benjamin Marzinski
dm_parse_device_entry() simply copies the minor number into dmi.dev, but the dev_t format splits the minor number between the lowest 8 bytes and highest 12 bytes. If the minor number is larger than 255, part of it will end up getting treated as the major number Fix this by checking that the minor number is valid and then encoding it as a dev_t.

2022-12-02dm init: add dm-mod.waitfor to wait for asynchronously probed block devicesPeter Korsgaard
Just calling wait_for_device_probe() is not enough to ensure that asynchronously probed block devices are available (E.G. mmc, usb), so add a "dm-mod.waitfor=<device1>[,..,<deviceN>]" parameter to get dm-init to explicitly wait for specific block devices before initializing the tables with logic similar to the rootwait logic that was introduced with commit cc1ed7542c8c ("init: wait for asynchronously scanned block devices").

2019-03-05dm: add support to directly boot to a mapped deviceHelen Koike
Add a "create" module parameter, which allows device-mapper targets to be configured at boot time. This enables early use of DM targets in the boot process (as the root device or otherwise) without the need of an initramfs. The syntax used in the boot param is based on the concise format from the dmsetup tool to follow the rule of least surprise: dmsetup table --concise /dev/mapper/lroot Which is: dm-mod.create=<name>,<uuid>,<minor>,<flags>,<table>[,<table>+][;<name>,<uuid>,<minor>,<flags>,<table>[,<table>+]+] Where, <name> ::= The device name. <uuid> ::= xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx | "" <minor> ::= The device minor number | "" <flags> ::= "ro" | "rw" <table> ::= <start_sector> <num_sectors> <target_type> <target_args> <target_type> ::= "verity" | "linear" | ... For example, the following could be added in the boot parameters: dm-mod.create="lroot,,,rw, 0 4096 linear 98:16 0, 4096 4096 linear 98:32 0" root=/dev/dm-0 Only the targets that were tested are allowed and the ones that don't change any block device when the device is create as read-only. For example, mirror and cache targets are not allowed. The rationale behind this is that if the user makes a mistake, choosing the wrong device to be the mirror or the cache can corrupt data. The only targets initially allowed are: * crypt * delay * linear * snapshot-origin * striped * verity Co-developed-by: Will Drewry <wad@chromium.org> Co-developed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Co-developed-by: Enric Balletbo i Serra <enric.balletbo@collabora.com> Signed-off-by: Helen Koike <helen.koike@collabora.com> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>
