The kmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kmalloc_array(). This
patch replaces cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b, gfp)

with:
        kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp)

as well as handling cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp)

with:

        kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

as it's slightly less ugly than:

        kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own
implementation of kmalloc().

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

// Fix redundant parens around sizeof().

Currently &lt;linux/slab.h&gt; #includes &lt;linux/kmemleak.h&gt; for no obvious
reason.  It looks like it's only a convenience, so remove kmemleak.h
from slab.h and add &lt;linux/kmemleak.h&gt; to any users of kmemleak_* that
don't already #include it.  Also remove &lt;linux/kmemleak.h&gt; from source
files that do not use it.

This is tested on i386 allmodconfig and x86_64 allmodconfig.  It would
be good to run it through the 0day bot for other $ARCHes.  I have
neither the horsepower nor the storage space for the other $ARCHes.

Update: This patch has been extensively build-tested by both the 0day
bot &amp; kisskb/ozlabs build farms.  Both of them reported 2 build failures
for which patches are included here (in v2).

[ slab.h is the second most used header file after module.h; kernel.h is
  right there with slab.h. There could be some minor error in the
  counting due to some #includes having comments after them and I didn't
  combine all of those. ]

The vq-&gt;vq.num_free hasn't been changed when error happens,
so it shouldn't be changed when handling the error.

If using indirect descriptors, you can make the total_sg as large as you
want.  If not, BUG is too serious because the function later returns
-ENOSPC.

<content type='text'>
This reverts commit c7070619f3408d9a0dffbed9149e6f00479cf43b.

This has been shown to regress on some ARM systems:

by forcing on DMA API usage for ARM systems, we have inadvertently
kicked open a hornets' nest in terms of cache-coherency. Namely that
unless the virtio device is explicitly described as capable of coherent
DMA by firmware, the DMA APIs on ARM and other DT-based platforms will
assume it is non-coherent. This turns out to cause a big problem for the
likes of QEMU and kvmtool, which generate virtio-mmio devices in their
guest DTs but neglect to add the often-overlooked "dma-coherent"
property; as a result, we end up with the guest making non-cacheable
accesses to the vring, the host doing so cacheably, both talking past
each other and things going horribly wrong.

We are working on a safer work-around.

Booting Linux on an ARM fastmodel containing an SMMU emulation results
in an unexpected I/O page fault from the legacy virtio-blk PCI device:

[    1.211721] arm-smmu-v3 2b400000.smmu: event 0x10 received:

&lt;system hangs failing to read partition table&gt;

This is because the legacy virtio-blk device is behind an SMMU, so we
have consequently swizzled its DMA ops and configured the SMMU to
translate accesses. This then requires the vring code to use the DMA API
to establish translations, otherwise all transactions will result in
fatal faults and termination.

Given that ARM-based systems only see an SMMU if one is really present
(the topology is all described by firmware tables such as device-tree or
IORT), then we can safely use the DMA API for all legacy virtio devices.
Modern devices can advertise the prescense of an IOMMU using the
VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM feature flag.
