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

2026-02-22T01:09:51+00:00

This is the exact same thing as the 'alloc_obj()' version, only much smaller because there are a lot fewer users of the *alloc_flex() interface. As with alloc_obj() version, this was done entirely with mindless brute force, using the same script, except using 'flex' in the pattern rather than 'objs*'. 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

2025-10-22T05:55:05+00:00

Because driver core can properly handle constant struct bus_type, move the ps3_system_bus_type to be a constant structure as well, placing it into read-only memory which can not be modified at runtime.

powerpc: Switch irq_domain_add_nomap() to use fwnode

2025-05-16T19:06:11+00:00

All irq_domain_add_*() functions are going away. PowerPC is the only user of irq_domain_add_nomap() and there is no irq_domain_create_nomap() complement. Therefore, to align with the rest of the kernel, rename irq_domain_add_nomap() to irq_domain_create_nomap() and accept a fwnode_handle instead of a device_node.
