<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>
<updated>2026-02-22T01:09:51+00:00</updated>

<id>bf4afc53b77aeaa48b5409da5c8da6bb4eff7f43</id>
<content type='text'>
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;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.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

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 *".

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Lock debugging:

   - Implement compiler-driven static analysis locking context checking,
     using the upcoming Clang 22 compiler's context analysis features
     (Marco Elver)

     We removed Sparse context analysis support, because prior to
     removal even a defconfig kernel produced 1,700+ context tracking
     Sparse warnings, the overwhelming majority of which are false
     positives. On an allmodconfig kernel the number of false positive
     context tracking Sparse warnings grows to over 5,200... On the plus
     side of the balance actual locking bugs found by Sparse context
     analysis is also rather ... sparse: I found only 3 such commits in
     the last 3 years. So the rate of false positives and the
     maintenance overhead is rather high and there appears to be no
     active policy in place to achieve a zero-warnings baseline to move
     the annotations &amp; fixers to developers who introduce new code.

     Clang context analysis is more complete and more aggressive in
     trying to find bugs, at least in principle. Plus it has a different
     model to enabling it: it's enabled subsystem by subsystem, which
     results in zero warnings on all relevant kernel builds (as far as
     our testing managed to cover it). Which allowed us to enable it by
     default, similar to other compiler warnings, with the expectation
     that there are no warnings going forward. This enforces a
     zero-warnings baseline on clang-22+ builds (Which are still limited
     in distribution, admittedly)

     Hopefully the Clang approach can lead to a more maintainable
     zero-warnings status quo and policy, with more and more subsystems
     and drivers enabling the feature. Context tracking can be enabled
     for all kernel code via WARN_CONTEXT_ANALYSIS_ALL=y (default
     disabled), but this will generate a lot of false positives.

     ( Having said that, Sparse support could still be added back,
       if anyone is interested - the removal patch is still
       relatively straightforward to revert at this stage. )

  Rust integration updates: (Alice Ryhl, Fujita Tomonori, Boqun Feng)

    - Add support for Atomic&lt;i8/i16/bool&gt; and replace most Rust native
      AtomicBool usages with Atomic&lt;bool&gt;

    - Clean up LockClassKey and improve its documentation

    - Add missing Send and Sync trait implementation for SetOnce

    - Make ARef Unpin as it is supposed to be

    - Add __rust_helper to a few Rust helpers as a preparation for
      helper LTO

    - Inline various lock related functions to avoid additional function
      calls

  WW mutexes:

    - Extend ww_mutex tests and other test-ww_mutex updates (John
      Stultz)

  Misc fixes and cleanups:

    - rcu: Mark lockdep_assert_rcu_helper() __always_inline (Arnd
      Bergmann)

    - locking/local_lock: Include more missing headers (Peter Zijlstra)

    - seqlock: fix scoped_seqlock_read kernel-doc (Randy Dunlap)

    - rust: sync: Replace `kernel::c_str!` with C-Strings (Tamir
      Duberstein)"

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Lock debugging:

   - Implement compiler-driven static analysis locking context checking,
     using the upcoming Clang 22 compiler's context analysis features
     (Marco Elver)

     We removed Sparse context analysis support, because prior to
     removal even a defconfig kernel produced 1,700+ context tracking
     Sparse warnings, the overwhelming majority of which are false
     positives. On an allmodconfig kernel the number of false positive
     context tracking Sparse warnings grows to over 5,200... On the plus
     side of the balance actual locking bugs found by Sparse context
     analysis is also rather ... sparse: I found only 3 such commits in
     the last 3 years. So the rate of false positives and the
     maintenance overhead is rather high and there appears to be no
     active policy in place to achieve a zero-warnings baseline to move
     the annotations &amp; fixers to developers who introduce new code.

     Clang context analysis is more complete and more aggressive in
     trying to find bugs, at least in principle. Plus it has a different
     model to enabling it: it's enabled subsystem by subsystem, which
     results in zero warnings on all relevant kernel builds (as far as
     our testing managed to cover it). Which allowed us to enable it by
     default, similar to other compiler warnings, with the expectation
     that there are no warnings going forward. This enforces a
     zero-warnings baseline on clang-22+ builds (Which are still limited
     in distribution, admittedly)

     Hopefully the Clang approach can lead to a more maintainable
     zero-warnings status quo and policy, with more and more subsystems
     and drivers enabling the feature. Context tracking can be enabled
     for all kernel code via WARN_CONTEXT_ANALYSIS_ALL=y (default
     disabled), but this will generate a lot of false positives.

     ( Having said that, Sparse support could still be added back,
       if anyone is interested - the removal patch is still
       relatively straightforward to revert at this stage. )

  Rust integration updates: (Alice Ryhl, Fujita Tomonori, Boqun Feng)

    - Add support for Atomic&lt;i8/i16/bool&gt; and replace most Rust native
      AtomicBool usages with Atomic&lt;bool&gt;

    - Clean up LockClassKey and improve its documentation

    - Add missing Send and Sync trait implementation for SetOnce

    - Make ARef Unpin as it is supposed to be

    - Add __rust_helper to a few Rust helpers as a preparation for
      helper LTO

    - Inline various lock related functions to avoid additional function
      calls

  WW mutexes:

    - Extend ww_mutex tests and other test-ww_mutex updates (John
      Stultz)

  Misc fixes and cleanups:

    - rcu: Mark lockdep_assert_rcu_helper() __always_inline (Arnd
      Bergmann)

    - locking/local_lock: Include more missing headers (Peter Zijlstra)

    - seqlock: fix scoped_seqlock_read kernel-doc (Randy Dunlap)

    - rust: sync: Replace `kernel::c_str!` with C-Strings (Tamir
      Duberstein)"

Parallel to binderfs patches - 02da8d2c0965 "binderfs_binder_ctl_create():
kill a bogus check" and the bit of b89aa544821d "convert binderfs" that
got lost when making 4433d8e25d73 "convert rust_binderfs"; the former is
a cleanup, the latter is about marking /binder-control persistent, so that
it would be taken out on umount.

With or without this change the checked condition can be falsely true if
proc-&gt;tsk execs, but this is fine: binder_alloc_mmap_handler() checks
vma-&gt;vm_mm == alloc-&gt;mm.

Patch series "don't abuse task_struct.group_leader", v2.

This series removes the usage of -&gt;group_leader when it is "obviously
unnecessary".

I am going to move -&gt;group_leader from task_struct to signal_struct or at
least add the new task_group_leader() helper.  So I will send more
tree-wide changes on top of this series.


This patch (of 7):

Cleanup and preparation to simplify the next changes.

- Use current-&gt;tgid instead of current-&gt;group_leader-&gt;pid

- Use the value returned by get_task_struct() to initialize proc-&gt;tsk
