2026-04-22staging: rtl8723bs: initialize le_tmp64 in rtw_BIP_verify()Lin YuChen
commit 8c964b82a4e97ec7f25e17b803ee196009b38a57 upstream. Initialize le_tmp64 to zero in rtw_BIP_verify() to prevent using uninitialized data. Smatch warns that only 6 bytes are copied to this 8-byte (u64) variable, leaving the last two bytes uninitialized: drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/core/rtw_security.c:1308 rtw_BIP_verify() warn: not copying enough bytes for '&le_tmp64' (8 vs 6 bytes) Initializing the variable at the start of the function fixes this warning and ensures predictable behavior.

2026-02-24staging: rtl8723bs: fix potential out-of-bounds read in rtw_restruct_wmm_ieLuka Gejak
The current code checks 'i + 5 < in_len' at the end of the if statement. However, it accesses 'in_ie[i + 5]' before that check, which can lead to an out-of-bounds read. Move the length check to the beginning of the conditional to ensure the index is within bounds before accessing the array.

2026-02-21Convert 'alloc_flex' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argumentLinus Torvalds
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*'.

2026-02-21Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argumentLinus Torvalds
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' | xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/' to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL argument to just drop that argument. Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered: they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically. For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate conversion. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2026-02-21treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar typesKees Cook
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 <kees@kernel.org>

2026-02-07staging: rtl8723bs: refactor ODM_SetIQCbyRFpath to reduce duplicationBera Yüzlü
Refactor ODM_SetIQCbyRFpath to remove duplicated PHY_SetBBReg() calls and improve readability. The original implementation duplicated the same PHY_SetBBReg() calls for both RF paths (S0 / S1) with only the path index changing. This reduces code duplication, makes the intent clearer and eases future maintenance. No functional change intended: register keys/values and the selection logic remain the same.

Remove these wrapper functions and inline the thread handling directly in rtw_start_drv_threads() and rtw_stop_drv_threads().

2026-02-07staging: rtl8723bs: update _rtw_pktfile_read() to return error codesMinu Jin
The function _rtw_pktfile_read() currently returns a uint and clamps the requested read length if it exceeds the remaining data. This behavior makes it impossible to propagate error codes from internal calls like skb_copy_bits() and leads to incomplete data processing. This patch updates the function to: 1. Return -EINVAL if the remaining data is less than the requested length, ensuring callers always get the full amount of data they expect. 2. Propagate the negative error code from skb_copy_bits(). 3. Change the return type from uint to int to support these error codes. To avoid breaking git bisect, this patch also updates all call sites (set_qos, update_attrib, and rtw_xmitframe_coalesce) in the same commit. By doing so, the error-producing function and its error-handling callers remain in sync, preventing runtime failures at this commit point.
