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

ALSA: seq: oss: Relax __free() variable declarations

2025-12-17T09:08:30Z

We used to have a variable declaration with __free() initialized with NULL. This was to keep the old coding style rule, but recently it's relaxed and rather recommends to follow the new rule to declare in place of use for __free() -- which avoids potential deadlocks or UAFs with nested cleanups. Although the current code has no bug, per se, let's follow the new standard and move the declaration to the place of assignment (or directly assign the allocated result) instead of NULL initializations.

ALSA: seq: Use safer strscpy() instead of strcpy()

2025-07-11T07:51:08Z

Use a safer function strscpy() instead of strcpy() for copying to arrays. Only idiomatic code replacement, and no functional changes. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250710100727.22653-4-tiwai@suse.de

ALSA: seq: oss: Use automatic cleanup of kfree()

2024-02-23T09:57:31Z

There are common patterns where a temporary buffer is allocated and freed at the exit, and those can be simplified with the recent cleanup mechanism via __free(kfree). No functional changes, only code refactoring. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240222111509.28390-7-tiwai@suse.de

ALSA: avoid 'bool' as variable name

2024-02-16T13:47:13Z

In modern C versions, 'bool' is a keyword that cannot be used as a variable name, so change this instance use something else, and change the type to bool instead. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240216130211.3828455-1-arnd@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai
