wifi: ipw2x00: Use michael_mic() from cfg80211

2026-04-08T06:55:16Z

Just use the michael_mic() function from cfg80211 instead of a local implementation of it using the crypto_shash API. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260408030651.80336-6-ebiggers@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

wifi: ipw2x00: Rename michael_mic() to libipw_michael_mic()

2026-04-08T06:55:15Z

Rename the driver-local michael_mic() function to libipw_michael_mic() to prevent a name conflict with the common michael_mic() function. Note that this code will be superseded later when libipw starts using the common michael_mic(). This commit just prevents a bisection hazard.

drivers: net: drop ipv6_stub usage and use direct function calls

2026-03-29T18:21:23Z

As IPv6 is built-in only, the ipv6_stub infrastructure is no longer necessary. Convert all drivers currently utilizing ipv6_stub to make direct function calls. The fallback functions introduced previously will prevent linkage errors when CONFIG_IPV6 is disabled. Signed-off-by: Fernando Fernandez Mancera Tested-by: Ricardo B. Marlière Reviewed-by: Jason A.

Convert more 'alloc_obj' cases to default GFP_KERNEL arguments

2026-02-22T04:03:00Z

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next line. Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial. So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed' scripts. The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want whitespace cleanup anyway. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

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

net: intel: fix PCI device ID conflict between i40e and ipw2200

2026-02-13T02:42:48Z

The ID 8086:104f is matched by both i40e and ipw2200. The same device ID should not be in more than one driver, because in that case, which driver is used is unpredictable. Fix this by taking advantage of the fact that i40e devices use PCI_CLASS_NETWORK_ETHERNET and ipw2200 devices use PCI_CLASS_NETWORK_OTHER to differentiate the devices.

wifi: ipw2x00: replace use of system_wq with system_percpu_wq

2025-11-20T10:55:24Z

This patch continues the effort to refactor workqueue APIs, which has begun with the changes introducing new workqueues and a new alloc_workqueue flag: commit 128ea9f6ccfb ("workqueue: Add system_percpu_wq and system_dfl_wq") commit 930c2ea566af ("workqueue: Add new WQ_PERCPU flag") The point of the refactoring is to eventually alter the default behavior of workqueues to become unbound by default so that their workload placement is optimized by the scheduler. Before that to happen after a careful review and conversion of each individual case, workqueue users must be converted to the better named new workqueues with no intended behaviour changes: system_wq -> system_percpu_wq system_unbound_wq -> systemd_dfl_wq This way the old obsolete workqueues (system_wq, system_unbound_wq) can be removed in the future.
