2026-02-21Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argumentLinus Torvalds-1/+1
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-1/+1
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>
2025-09-17fwctl/mlx5: Add Adjacent function query commands and their scopeSaeed Mahameed-0/+6
MLX5_CMD_OP_QUERY_ADJACENT_FUNCTIONS_ID: - Query Adjacent functions (PFs/VFs) of the function calling FW. MLX5_CMD_OP_DELEGATE_VHCA_MANAGEMENT: - Delegates own VFs to be managed/seen by other adjacent PFs MLX5_CMD_OP_QUERY_DELEGATED_VHCA: - Query current function delegation state.

2025-09-17fwctl/mlx5: Allow MODIFY_CONG_STATUS commandAvihai Horon-0/+1
MODIFY_CONG_STATUS command is used to enable or disable congestion control according to a given priority and protocol. Add MODIFY_CONG_STATUS to the allowed commands under configuration scope.

2025-08-18fwctl/mlx5: Fix memory alloc/free in mlx5ctl_fw_rpc()Akhilesh Patil-1/+1
Use kvfree() to free memory allocated by kvzalloc() instead of kfree(). Avoid potential memory management issue considering kvzalloc() can internally choose to use either kmalloc() or vmalloc() based on memory request and current system memory state. Hence, use more appropriate kvfree() which automatically determines correct free method to avoid potential hard to debug memory issues. Fix this issue discovered by running spatch static analysis tool using coccinelle script - scripts/coccinelle/api/kfree_mismatch.cocci Fixes: 52929c2142041 ("fwctl/mlx5: Support for communicating with mlx5 fw") Link: https://patch.msgid.link/r/aKAjCoF9cT3VEbSE@bhairav-test.ee.iitb.ac.in Signed-off-by: Akhilesh Patil <akhilesh@ee.iitb.ac.in> Reviewed-by: Dave Jiang <dave.jiang@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Alison Schofield <alison.schofield@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@nvidia.com>
2025-03-06fwctl/mlx5: Support for communicating with mlx5 fwSaeed Mahameed-0/+415
mlx5 FW has a built in security context called UID. Each UID has a set of permissions controlled by the kernel when it is created and every command is tagged by the kernel with a particular UID. In general commands cannot reach objects outside of their UID and commands cannot exceed their UID's permissions. These restrictions are enforced by FW. This mechanism has long been used in RDMA for the devx interface where RDMA will sent commands directly to the FW and the UID limitations restrict those commands to a ib_device/verbs security domain. For instance commands that would effect other VFs, or global device resources. The model is suitable for unprivileged userspace to operate the RDMA functionality. The UID has been extended with a "tools resources" permission which allows additional commands and sub-commands that are intended to match with the scope limitations set in FWCTL. This is an alternative design to the "command intent log" where the FW does the enforcement rather than having the FW report the enforcement the kernel should do. Consistent with the fwctl definitions the "tools resources" security context is limited to the FWCTL_RPC_CONFIGURATION, FWCTL_RPC_DEBUG_READ_ONLY, FWCTL_RPC_DEBUG_WRITE, and FWCTL_RPC_DEBUG_WRITE_FULL security scopes. Like RDMA devx, each opened fwctl file descriptor will get a unique UID associated with each file descriptor. The fwctl driver is kept simple and we reject commands that can create objects as the UID mechanism relies on the kernel to track and destroy objects prior to detroying the UID. Filtering into fwctl sub scopes is done inside the driver with a switch statement. This substantially limits what is possible to primarily query functions ad a few limited set operations. mlx5 already has a robust infrastructure for delivering RPC messages to fw. Trivially connect fwctl's RPC mechanism to mlx5_cmd_do(). Enforce the User Context ID in every RPC header accepted from the FD so the FW knows the security context of the issuing ID.
