treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types

2026-02-21T09:02:28+00:00

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 *".

tools/dma: move dma_map_benchmark from selftests to tools/dma

2025-10-29T08:41:40+00:00

dma_map_benchmark is a standalone developer tool rather than an
automated selftest. It has no pass/fail criteria, expects manual
invocation, and is built as a normal userspace binary. Move it to
tools/dma/ and add a minimal Makefile.

dma-mapping: benchmark: Don't starve others when doing the test

2024-07-09T05:48:32+00:00

The test thread will start N benchmark kthreads and then schedule out
until the test time finished and notify the benchmark kthreads to stop.
The benchmark kthreads will keep running until notified to stop.
There's a problem with current implementation when the benchmark
kthreads number is equal to the CPUs on a non-preemptible kernel:
since the scheduler will balance the kthreads across the CPUs and
when the test time's out the test thread won't get a chance to be
scheduled on any CPU then cannot notify the benchmark kthreads to stop.

This can be easily reproduced on a VM (simulated with 16 CPUs) with
PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY:

Solve this by adding scheduling point in the kthread loop,
so if there're other threads in the system they may have
a chance to run, especially the thread to notify the test
end. However this may degrade the test concurrency so it's
recommended to run this on an idle system.

dma-mapping: benchmark: handle NUMA_NO_NODE correctly

Use cpumask_of_node() in place when binding a kernel thread to a cpuset
of a particular node.

Note that the provided node id is checked inside map_benchmark_ioctl().
It's just a NUMA_NO_NODE case which is not handled properly later.

dma-mapping: benchmark: fix node id validation

While validating node ids in map_benchmark_ioctl(), node_possible() may

Compare node ids with sane bounds first. NUMA_NO_NODE is considered a
special valid case meaning that benchmarking kthreads won't be bound to a
cpuset of a given node.

dma-mapping: benchmark: fix up kthread-related error handling

2024-05-23T13:06:47+00:00

kthread creation failure is invalidly handled inside do_map_benchmark().
The put_task_struct() calls on the error path are supposed to balance the
get_task_struct() calls which only happen after all the kthreads are
successfully created. Rollback using kthread_stop() for already created
kthreads in case of such failure.

In normal situation call kthread_stop_put() to gracefully stop kthreads
and put their task refcounts. This should be done for all started
kthreads.

dma-mapping: benchmark: remove MODULE_LICENSE in non-modules

2023-04-13T20:13:51+00:00

Since commit 8b41fc4454e ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without
Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf"), MODULE_LICENSE declarations
are used to identify modules. As a consequence, uses of the macro
in non-modules will cause modprobe to misidentify their containing
object file as a module when it is not (false positives), and modprobe
might succeed rather than failing with a suitable error message.

So remove it in the files in this commit, none of which can be built as
modules.
