Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using git grep -l '\

treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types

2026-02-21T09:02:28Z

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

mISDN: Delete unnecessary checks before the macro call “dev_kfree_skb”

2019-08-22T23:22:03Z

The dev_kfree_skb() function performs also input parameter validation. Thus the test around the shown calls is not needed. This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software. Signed-off-by: Markus Elfring Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

mISDN: Fix null pointer dereference at mISDN_FsmNew

2017-08-11T21:56:23Z

If mISDN_FsmNew() fails to allocate memory for jumpmatrix then null pointer dereference will occur on any write to jumpmatrix. The patch adds check on successful allocation and corresponding error handling. Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org). Signed-off-by: Anton Vasilyev Signed-off-by: David S.

networking: introduce and use skb_put_data()

2017-06-16T15:48:37Z

A common pattern with skb_put() is to just want to memcpy() some data into the new space, introduce skb_put_data() for this. An spatch similar to the one for skb_put_zero() converts many of the places using it: @@ identifier p, p2; expression len, skb, data; type t, t2; @@ ( -p = skb_put(skb, len); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, len); | -p = (t)skb_put(skb, len); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, len); ) ( p2 = (t2)p; -memcpy(p2, data, len); | -memcpy(p, data, len); ) @@ type t, t2; identifier p, p2; expression skb, data; @@ t *p; ... ( -p = skb_put(skb, sizeof(t)); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, sizeof(t)); | -p = (t *)skb_put(skb, sizeof(t)); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, sizeof(t)); ) ( p2 = (t2)p; -memcpy(p2, data, sizeof(*p)); | -memcpy(p, data, sizeof(*p)); ) @@ expression skb, len, data; @@ -memcpy(skb_put(skb, len), data, len); +skb_put_data(skb, data, len); (again, manually post-processed to retain some comments) Reviewed-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: David S.

mISDN: fix OOM condition for sending queued I-Frames

2015-10-22T14:23:19Z

The old code did not check the return value of skb_clone(). The extra skb_clone() is not needed at all, if using skb_realloc_headroom() instead, which gives us a private copy with enough headroom as well. We need to requeue the original skb if the call failed, because we cannot inform upper layers about the data loss. Restructure the code to minimise rollback effort if it happens. This fix kernel bug #86091 Thanks to Insu Yun to remind me on this issue. Signed-off-by: Karsten Keil Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

mISDN: Bugfix for layer2 fixed TEI mode

2012-08-06T20:22:50Z

If a fixed TEI is used, the initial state of the layer 2 statmachine need to be 4 (TEI assigned). This was true only for Point to Point connections, but not for the other fixed TEIs. It was not found before, because usually only the TEI 0 is used as fixed TEI for PtP mode, but if you try X31 packet mode connections with SAPI 16, TEI 1, it did fail.
