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

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

Input: serio - complete sizeof(*pointer) conversions

2026-01-20T20:47:52Z

Complete the sizeof(*pointer) conversion for arc_ps2, altera_ps2, and olpc_apsp drivers. This follows the cleanup initiated in commit 06b449d7f7c3 ("Input: serio - use sizeof(*pointer) instead of sizeof(type)).

Input: switch back to struct platform_driver::remove()

2024-10-15T18:43:25Z

After commit 0edb555a65d1 ("platform: Make platform_driver::remove() return void") .remove() is (again) the right callback to implement for platform drivers. Convert all platform drivers below drivers/input/ to use .remove(), with the eventual goal to drop struct platform_driver::remove_new(). As .remove() and .remove_new() have the same prototypes, conversion is done by just changing the structure member name in the driver initializer. While touching these files, make indention of the struct initializer consistent in a few drivers.

Input: serio - use sizeof(*pointer) instead of sizeof(type)

2024-06-07T18:59:21Z

It is preferred to use sizeof(*pointer) instead of sizeof(type) due to the type of the variable can change and one needs not change the former (unlike the latter). This patch has no effect on runtime behavior.

Input: altera_ps2 - convert to platform remove callback returning void

2023-09-24T02:16:45Z

The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by returning an error code. However the value returned is ignored (apart from emitting a warning) and this typically results in resource leaks. To improve here there is a quest to make the remove callback return void. In the first step of this quest all drivers are converted to .remove_new() which already returns void. Eventually after all drivers are converted, .remove_new() will be renamed to .remove(). Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove callback to the void returning variant.

Input: altera_ps2 - use devm_platform_get_and_ioremap_resource()

2023-01-30T04:36:31Z

Convert platform_get_resource(), devm_ioremap_resource() to a single call to devm_platform_get_and_ioremap_resource(), as this is exactly what this function does. Signed-off-by: ye xingchen Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/202301281603290601283@zte.com.cn Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov

Input: move from strlcpy with unused retval to strscpy

2022-08-18T22:44:08Z

Follow the advice of the below link and prefer 'strscpy' in this subsystem. Conversion is 1:1 because the return value is not used. Generated by a coccinelle script.
