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

ksmbd: add procfs interface for runtime monitoring and statistics

2026-02-09T02:25:16Z

This patch introduces a /proc filesystem interface to ksmbd, providing visibility into the internal state of the SMB server. This allows administrators and developers to monitor active connections, user sessions, and opened files in real-time without relying on external tools or heavy debugging. Key changes include: - Connection Monitoring (/proc/fs/ksmbd/clients): Displays a list of active network connections, including client IP addresses, SMB dialects, credits, and last active timestamps. - Session Management (/proc/fs/ksmbd/sessions/): Adds a global sessions file to list all authenticated users and their session IDs. - Creates individual session entries (e.g., /proc/fs/ksmbd/sessions/) detailing capabilities (DFS, Multi-channel, etc.), signing/encryption algorithms, and connected tree shares. - File Tracking (/proc/fs/ksmbd/files): Shows all currently opened files across the server, including tree IDs, process IDs (PID), access modes (daccess/saccess), and oplock/lease states. - Statistics & Counters: Implements internal counters for global server metrics, such as the number of tree connections, total sessions, and processed read/write bytes.

smb/server: fix minimum SMB2 PDU size

2025-12-22T01:20:46Z

The minimum SMB2 PDU size should be updated to the size of `struct smb2_pdu` (that is, the size of `struct smb2_hdr` + 2). Suggested-by: David Howells Suggested-by: Namjae Jeon Signed-off-by: ChenXiaoSong Reviewed-by: David Howells Acked-by: Namjae Jeon Signed-off-by: Steve French

smb/server: fix minimum SMB1 PDU size

2025-12-22T01:20:46Z

Since the RFC1002 header has been removed from `struct smb_hdr`, the minimum SMB1 PDU size should be updated as well.

ksmbd: rename smb2_get_msg to smb_get_msg

2025-12-22T01:20:46Z

With the removal of the RFC1002 length field from the SMB header, smb2_get_msg is now used to get the smb1 request from the request buffer. Since this function is no longer exclusive to smb2 and now supports smb1 as well, This patch rename it to smb_get_msg to better reflect its usage.
