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>
2024-02-17tracing/probes: Fix to search structure fields correctlyMasami Hiramatsu (Google)
Fix to search a field from the structure which has anonymous union correctly. Since the reference `type` pointer was updated in the loop, the search loop suddenly aborted where it hits an anonymous union. Thus it can not find the field after the anonymous union. This avoids updating the cursor `type` pointer in the loop.

2023-08-23tracing/probes: Add a function to search a member of a struct/unionMasami Hiramatsu (Google)
Add btf_find_struct_member() API to search a member of a given data structure or union from the member's name.

2023-08-23tracing/probes: Move finding func-proto API and getting func-param API to ↵Masami Hiramatsu (Google)
trace_btf Move generic function-proto find API and getting function parameter API to BTF library code from trace_probe.c. This will avoid redundant efforts on different feature.
