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

usb: gadget: Constify struct configfs_item_operations and configfs_group_operations

2025-12-23T14:31:01+00:00

'struct configfs_item_operations' and 'configfs_group_operations' are not modified in these drivers. Constifying these structures moves some data to a read-only section, so increases overall security, especially when the structure holds some function pointers. On a x86_64, with allmodconfig, as an example: Before: ====== text data bss dec hex filename 65061 20968 256 86285 1510d drivers/usb/gadget/configfs.o After: ===== text data bss dec hex filename 66181 19848 256 86285 1510d drivers/usb/gadget/configfs.o Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET Link: https://patch.msgid.link/49cec1cb84425f854de80b6d69b53a5a3cda8189.1766164523.git.christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

usb: gadget: u_serial: Implement remote wakeup capability

2025-04-25T11:42:04+00:00

Implement the remote wakeup capability for u_serial. The newly added function gserial_wakeup_host() wakes up the host when there is some data to be sent while the device is suspended. Add gser_get_status() callbacks to advertise f_serial interface as function wakeup capable.

usb: gadget: f_serial: Ensure gserial disconnected during unbind

2022-01-26T12:57:59+00:00

Some UDCs may return an error during pullup disable as part of the unbind path for a USB configuration. This will lead to a scenario where the disable() callback is skipped, whereas the unbind() still occurs. If this happens, the u_serial driver will continue to fail subsequent binds, due to an already existing entry in the ports array. Ensure that gserial_disconnect() is called during the f_serial unbind, so the ports entry is properly cleared.
