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

vfio/pci: Convert all PCI drivers to get_region_info_caps

2025-11-12T22:06:40Z

Since the core function signature changes it has to flow up to all drivers.

vfio/pci: Do vf_token checks for VFIO_DEVICE_BIND_IOMMUFD

2025-08-05T21:41:14Z

This was missed during the initial implementation. The VFIO PCI encodes the vf_token inside the device name when opening the device from the group FD, something like: "0000:04:10.0 vf_token=bd8d9d2b-5a5f-4f5a-a211-f591514ba1f3" This is used to control access to a VF unless there is co-ordination with the owner of the PF. Since we no longer have a device name in the cdev path, pass the token directly through VFIO_DEVICE_BIND_IOMMUFD using an optional field indicated by VFIO_DEVICE_BIND_FLAG_TOKEN.

vfio/mlx5: fix possible overflow in tracking max message size

2025-07-15T20:17:17Z

MLX cap pg_track_log_max_msg_size consists of 5 bits, value of which is used as power of 2 for max_msg_size. This can lead to multiplication overflow between max_msg_size (u32) and integer constant, and afterwards incorrect value is being written to rq_size. Fix this issue by extending integer constant to u64 type. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

vfio/mlx5: Rewrite create mkey flow to allow better code reuse

2025-05-20T14:32:07Z

Change the creation of mkey to be performed in multiple steps: data allocation, DMA setup and actual call to HW to create that mkey. In this new flow, the whole input to MKEY command is saved to eliminate the need to keep array of pointers for DMA addresses for receive list and in the future patches for send list too. In addition to memory size reduce and elimination of unnecessary data movements to set MKEY input, the code is prepared for future reuse.

vfio/mlx5: Explicitly use number of pages instead of allocated length

2025-05-20T14:32:07Z

allocated_length is a multiple of page size and number of pages, so let's change the functions to accept number of pages. This improves code readability, simplifies buffer handling, and enables combining DMA send/receive operations, as will be introduced in the next patches.

The previous commit removed the page_list argument from alloc_pages_bulk_noprof() along with the alloc_pages_bulk_list() function. Now that only the *_array() flavour of the API remains, we can do the following renaming (along with the _noprof() ones): alloc_pages_bulk_array -> alloc_pages_bulk alloc_pages_bulk_array_mempolicy -> alloc_pages_bulk_mempolicy alloc_pages_bulk_array_node -> alloc_pages_bulk_node Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/275a3bbc0be20fbe9002297d60045e67ab3d4ada.1734991165.git.luizcap@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Luiz Capitulino Acked-by: David Hildenbrand Cc: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) Cc: Mel Gorman Cc: Yunsheng Lin Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton
