2025-12-10checkpatch: add uninitialized pointer with __free attribute checkAlly Heev1-0/+6
Uinitialized pointers with __free attribute can cause undefined behavior as the memory randomly assigned to the pointer is freed automatically when the pointer goes out of scope. add check in checkpatch to detect such issues.

2025-11-20checkpatch: add IDR to the deprecated listCarlos López1-0/+4
As of commit 85656ec193e9, the IDR interface is marked as deprecated in the documentation, but no checks are made in that regard for new code. Add the existing IDR initialization APIs to the deprecated list in checkpatch, so that if new code is introduced using these APIs, a warning is emitted.

2025-11-11checkpatch: detect unhandled placeholders in cover lettersOnur Özkan1-0/+7
Add a new check PLACEHOLDER_USE to detect unhandled placeholders. This prevents sending patch series with incomplete patches (mostly in cover letters) containing auto generated subject or blurb lines. These placeholders can be seen on mailing lists.

2025-07-09checkpatch: check for missing sentinels in ID arraysBrian Norris1-0/+28
All of the ID tables based on <linux/mod_devicetable.h> (of_device_id, pci_device_id, ...) require their arrays to end in an empty sentinel value. That's usually spelled with an empty initializer entry (e.g., "{}"), but also sometimes with explicit 0 entries, field initializers (e.g., '.id = ""'), or even a macro entry (like PCMCIA_DEVICE_NULL). Without a sentinel, device-matching code may read out of bounds. I've found a number of such bugs in driver reviews, and we even occasionally commit one to the tree. See commit 5751eee5c620 ("i2c: nomadik: Add missing sentinel to match table") for example. Teach checkpatch to find these ID tables, and complain if it looks like there wasn't a sentinel value. Test output: $ git format-patch -1 a0d15cc47f29be6d --stdout | scripts/checkpatch.pl - ERROR: missing sentinel in ID array #57: FILE: drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-nomadik.c:1073: +static const struct of_device_id nmk_i2c_eyeq_match_table[] = { { .compatible = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX", .data = (void *)(NMK_I2C_EYEQ_FLAG_32B_BUS | NMK_I2C_EYEQ_FLAG_IS_EYEQ5), }, }; total: 1 errors, 0 warnings, 66 lines checked NOTE: For some of the reported defects, checkpatch may be able to mechanically convert to the typical style using --fix or --fix-inplace. "[PATCH] i2c: nomadik: switch from of_device_is_compatible() to" has style problems, please review. NOTE: If any of the errors are false positives, please report them to the maintainer, see CHECKPATCH in MAINTAINERS. When run across the entire tree (scripts/checkpatch.pl -q --types MISSING_SENTINEL -f ...), false positives exist: * where macros are used that hide the table from analysis (e.g., drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_drv.c / radeon_PCI_IDS). There are fewer than 5 of these. * where such tables are processed correctly via ARRAY_SIZE() (fewer than 5 instances). This is by far not the typical usage of *_device_id arrays. * some odd parsing artifacts, where ctx_statement_block() seems to quit in the middle of a block due to #if/#else/#endif. Also, not every "struct *_device_id" is in fact a sentinel-requiring structure, but even with such types, false positives are very rare.

2025-06-26checkpatch: check for comment explaining rgmii(|-rxid|-txid) PHY modesMatthias Schiffer1-0/+12
Historically, the RGMII PHY modes specified in Device Trees have been used inconsistently, often referring to the usage of delays on the PHY side rather than describing the board; many drivers still implement this incorrectly. Require a comment in Devices Trees using these modes (usually mentioning that the delay is realized on the PCB), so we can avoid adding more incorrect uses (or will at least notice which drivers still need to be fixed).

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni: "Core: - Implement the Device Memory TCP transmit path, allowing zero-copy data transmission on top of TCP from e.g. GPU memory to the wire. - Move all the IPv6 routing tables management outside the RTNL scope, under its own lock and RCU. The route control path is now 3x times faster. - Convert queue related netlink ops to instance lock, reducing again the scope of the RTNL lock. This improves the control plane scalability. - Refactor the software crc32c implementation, removing unneeded abstraction layers and improving significantly the related micro-benchmarks. - Optimize the GRO engine for UDP-tunneled traffic, for a 10% performance improvement in related stream tests. - Cover more per-CPU storage with local nested BH locking; this is a prep work to remove the current per-CPU lock in local_bh_disable() on PREMPT_RT. - Introduce and use nlmsg_payload helper, combining buffer bounds verification with accessing payload carried by netlink messages. Netfilter: - Rewrite the procfs conntrack table implementation, improving considerably the dump performance. A lot of user-space tools still use this interface. - Implement support for wildcard netdevice in netdev basechain and flowtables. - Integrate conntrack information into nft trace infrastructure. - Export set count and backend name to userspace, for better introspection. BPF: - BPF qdisc support: BPF-qdisc can be implemented with BPF struct_ops programs and can be controlled in similar way to traditional qdiscs using the "tc qdisc" command. - Refactor the UDP socket iterator, addressing long standing issues WRT duplicate hits or missed sockets. Protocols: - Improve TCP receive buffer auto-tuning and increase the default upper bound for the receive buffer; overall this improves the single flow maximum thoughput on 200Gbs link by over 60%. - Add AFS GSSAPI security class to AF_RXRPC; it provides transport security for connections to the AFS fileserver and VL server. - Improve TCP multipath routing, so that the sources address always matches the nexthop device. - Introduce SO_PASSRIGHTS for AF_UNIX, to allow disabling SCM_RIGHTS, and thus preventing DoS caused by passing around problematic FDs. - Retire DCCP socket. DCCP only receives updates for bugs, and major distros disable it by default. Its removal allows for better organisation of TCP fields to reduce the number of cache lines hit in the fast path. - Extend TCP drop-reason support to cover PAWS checks. Driver API: - Reorganize PTP ioctl flag support to require an explicit opt-in for the drivers, avoiding the problem of drivers not rejecting new unsupported flags. - Converted several device drivers to timestamping APIs. - Introduce per-PHY ethtool dump helpers, improving the support for dump operations targeting PHYs. Tests and tooling: - Add support for classic netlink in user space C codegen, so that ynl-c can now read, create and modify links, routes addresses and qdisc layer configuration. - Add ynl sub-types for binary attributes, allowing ynl-c to output known struct instead of raw binary data, clarifying the classic netlink output. - Extend MPTCP selftests to improve the code-coverage. - Add tests for XDP tail adjustment in AF_XDP.

2025-04-21lib/vsprintf: Add support for generic FourCCs by extending %p4ccHector Martin1-1/+1
%p4cc is designed for DRM/V4L2 FourCCs with their specific quirks, but it's useful to be able to print generic 4-character codes formatted as an integer. Extend it to add format specifiers for printing generic 32-bit FourCCs with various endian semantics: %p4ch Host byte order %p4cn Network byte order %p4cl Little-endian %p4cb Big-endian The endianness determines how bytes are interpreted as a u32, and the FourCC is then always printed MSByte-first (this is the opposite of V4L/DRM FourCCs). This covers most practical cases, e.g. %p4cn would allow printing LSByte-first FourCCs stored in host endian order (other than the hex form being in character order, not the integer value).

2025-04-11net: Retire DCCP socket.Kuniyuki Iwashima1-1/+1
DCCP was orphaned in 2021 by commit 054c4610bd05 ("MAINTAINERS: dccp: move Gerrit Renker to CREDITS"), which noted that the last maintainer had been inactive for five years. In recent years, it has become a playground for syzbot, and most changes to DCCP have been odd bug fixes triggered by syzbot. Apart from that, the only changes have been driven by treewide or networking API updates or adjustments related to TCP. Thus, in 2023, we announced we would remove DCCP in 2025 via commit b144fcaf46d4 ("dccp: Print deprecation notice."). Since then, only one individual has contacted the netdev mailing list. [0] There is ongoing research for Multipath DCCP. The repository is hosted on GitHub [1], and development is not taking place through the upstream community. While the repository is published under the GPLv2 license, the scheduling part remains proprietary, with a LICENSE file [2] stating: "This is not Open Source software." The researcher mentioned a plan to address the licensing issue, upstream the patches, and step up as a maintainer, but there has been no further communication since then. Maintaining DCCP for a decade without any real users has become a burden. Therefore, it's time to remove it. Removing DCCP will also provide significant benefits to TCP. It allows us to freely reorganize the layout of struct inet_connection_sock, which is currently shared with DCCP, and optimize it to reduce the number of cachelines accessed in the TCP fast path. Note that we keep DCCP netfilter modules as requested.
