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>

2023-02-02error-injection: remove EI_ETYPE_NONEMasami Hiramatsu (Google)
Patch series "error-injection: Clarify the requirements of error injectable functions". Patches for clarifying the requirement of error injectable functions and to remove the confusing EI_ETYPE_NONE. This patch (of 2): Since the EI_ETYPE_NONE is confusing type, replace it with appropriate errno. The EI_ETYPE_NONE has been introduced for a dummy (error) value, but it can mislead people that they can use ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION(func, NONE). So remove it from the EI_ETYPE and use appropriate errno instead.

2020-12-15fault-injection: handle EI_ETYPE_TRUEBarnabás Pőcze
Commit af3b854492f351d1 ("mm/page_alloc.c: allow error injection") introduced EI_ETYPE_TRUE, but did not extend * lib/error-inject.c:error_type_string(), and * kernel/fail_function.c:adjust_error_retval() to accommodate for this change. Handle EI_ETYPE_TRUE in both functions appropriately by * returning "TRUE" in error_type_string(), * adjusting the return value to true (1) in adjust_error_retval(). Furthermore, simplify the logic of handling EI_ETYPE_NULL in adjust_error_retval().

%pF and %pf are functionally equivalent to %pS and %ps conversion specifiers. The former are deprecated, therefore switch the current users to use the preferred variant. The changes have been produced by the following command: git grep -l '%p[fF]' | grep -v '^\(tools\|Documentation\)/' | \ while read i; do perl -i -pe 's/%pf/%ps/g; s/%pF/%pS/g;' $i; done And verifying the result.

2018-01-12error-injection: Add injectable error typesMasami Hiramatsu
Add injectable error types for each error-injectable function. One motivation of error injection test is to find software flaws, mistakes or mis-handlings of expectable errors. If we find such flaws by the test, that is a program bug, so we need to fix it. But if the tester miss input the error (e.g. just return success code without processing anything), it causes unexpected behavior even if the caller is correctly programmed to handle any errors. That is not what we want to test by error injection. To clarify what type of errors the caller must expect for each injectable function, this introduces injectable error types: - EI_ETYPE_NULL : means the function will return NULL if it fails. No ERR_PTR, just a NULL. - EI_ETYPE_ERRNO : means the function will return -ERRNO if it fails. - EI_ETYPE_ERRNO_NULL : means the function will return -ERRNO (ERR_PTR) or NULL. ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION() macro is expanded to get one of NULL, ERRNO, ERRNO_NULL to record the error type for each function. e.g. ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION(open_ctree, ERRNO) This error types are shown in debugfs as below. ==== / # cat /sys/kernel/debug/error_injection/list open_ctree [btrfs] ERRNO io_ctl_init [btrfs] ERRNO ==== Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>
2018-01-12error-injection: Separate error-injection from kprobeMasami Hiramatsu
Since error-injection framework is not limited to be used by kprobes, nor bpf. Other kernel subsystems can use it freely for checking safeness of error-injection, e.g. livepatch, ftrace etc. So this separate error-injection framework from kprobes. Some differences has been made: - "kprobe" word is removed from any APIs/structures. - BPF_ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION() is renamed to ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION() since it is not limited for BPF too. - CONFIG_FUNCTION_ERROR_INJECTION is the config item of this feature. It is automatically enabled if the arch supports error injection feature for kprobe or ftrace etc. Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>
