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

block: pass io_comp_batch to rq_end_io_fn callback

2026-01-20T17:12:54Z

Add a third parameter 'const struct io_comp_batch *' to the rq_end_io_fn callback signature. This allows end_io handlers to access the completion batch context when requests are completed via blk_mq_end_request_batch(). The io_comp_batch is passed from blk_mq_end_request_batch(), while NULL is passed from __blk_mq_end_request() and blk_mq_put_rq_ref() which don't have batch context. This infrastructure change enables drivers to detect whether they're being called from a batched completion path (like iopoll) and access additional context stored in the io_comp_batch. Update all rq_end_io_fn implementations: - block/blk-mq.c: blk_end_sync_rq - block/blk-flush.c: flush_end_io, mq_flush_data_end_io - drivers/nvme/host/ioctl.c: nvme_uring_cmd_end_io - drivers/nvme/host/core.c: nvme_keep_alive_end_io - drivers/nvme/host/pci.c: abort_endio, nvme_del_queue_end, nvme_del_cq_end - drivers/nvme/target/passthru.c: nvmet_passthru_req_done - drivers/scsi/scsi_error.c: eh_lock_door_done - drivers/scsi/sg.c: sg_rq_end_io - drivers/scsi/st.c: st_scsi_execute_end - drivers/target/target_core_pscsi.c: pscsi_req_done - drivers/md/dm-rq.c: end_clone_request Signed-off-by: Ming Lei Reviewed-by: Kanchan Joshi Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: remove bio_add_pc_page

2025-01-04T22:27:35Z

Lift bio_split_rw_at into blk_rq_append_bio so that it validates the hardware limits. With this all passthrough callers can simply add bio_add_page to build the bio and delay checking for exceeding of limits to this point instead of doing it for each page. While this looks like adding a new expensive loop over all bio_vecs, blk_rq_append_bio is already doing that just to counter the number of segments.

Pull block handle updates from Christian Brauner: "Last cycle we changed opening of block devices, and opening a block device would return a bdev_handle. This allowed us to implement support for restricting and forbidding writes to mounted block devices. It was accompanied by converting and adding helpers to operate on bdev_handles instead of plain block devices. That was already a good step forward but ultimately it isn't necessary to have special purpose helpers for opening block devices internally that return a bdev_handle. Fundamentally, opening a block device internally should just be equivalent to opening files. So now all internal opens of block devices return files just as a userspace open would. Instead of introducing a separate indirection into bdev_open_by_*() via struct bdev_handle bdev_file_open_by_*() is made to just return a struct file. Opening and closing a block device just becomes equivalent to opening and closing a file. This all works well because internally we already have a pseudo fs for block devices and so opening block devices is simple. There's a few places where we needed to be careful such as during boot when the kernel is supposed to mount the rootfs directly without init doing it. Here we need to take care to ensure that we flush out any asynchronous file close. That's what we already do for opening, unpacking, and closing the initramfs. So nothing new here. The equivalence of opening and closing block devices to regular files is a win in and of itself. But it also has various other advantages. We can remove struct bdev_handle completely. Various low-level helpers are now private to the block layer. Other helpers were simply removable completely. A follow-up series that is already reviewed build on this and makes it possible to remove bdev->bd_inode and allows various clean ups of the buffer head code as well. All places where we stashed a bdev_handle now just stash a file and use simple accessors to get to the actual block device which was already the case for bdev_handle" * tag 'vfs-6.9.super' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (35 commits) block: remove bdev_handle completely block: don't rely on BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES when yielding write access bdev: remove bdev pointer from struct bdev_handle bdev: make struct bdev_handle private to the block layer bdev: make bdev_{release, open_by_dev}() private to block layer bdev: remove bdev_open_by_path() reiserfs: port block device access to file ocfs2: port block device access to file nfs: port block device access to files jfs: port block device access to file f2fs: port block device access to files ext4: port block device access to file erofs: port device access to file btrfs: port device access to file bcachefs: port block device access to file target: port block device access to file s390: port block device access to file nvme: port block device access to file block2mtd: port device access to files bcache: port block device access to files ...
