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 *".

Patch series "reboot: support runtime configuration of emergency
hw_protection action", v3.
We currently leave the decision of whether to shutdown or reboot to
protect hardware in an emergency situation to the individual drivers.
This works out in some cases, where the driver detecting the critical
failure has inside knowledge: It binds to the system management controller
for example or is guided by hardware description that defines what to do.
This is inadequate in the general case though as a driver reporting e.g.
an imminent power failure can't know whether a shutdown or a reboot would
be more appropriate for a given hardware platform.
To address this, this series adds a hw_protection kernel parameter and
sysfs toggle that can be used to change the action from the shutdown
default to reboot. A new hw_protection_trigger API then makes use of this
default action.
My particular use case is unattended embedded systems that don't have
support for shutdown and that power on automatically when power is
supplied:
- A brief power cycle gets detected by the driver
- The kernel powers down the system and SoC goes into shutdown mode
- Power is restored
- The system remains oblivious to the restored power
- System needs to be manually power cycled for a duration long enough
to drain the capacitors
With this series, such systems can configure the kernel with
hw_protection=reboot to have the boot firmware worry about critical
conditions.
This patch (of 12):
Currently __hw_protection_shutdown() either reboots or shuts down the
system according to its shutdown argument.
To make the logic easier to follow, both inside __hw_protection_shutdown
and at caller sites, lets replace the bool parameter with an enum.
This will be extra useful, when in a later commit, a third action is added
to the enumeration.
No functional change.

Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for
watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net,
drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a
registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or
modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function.
Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of
proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata.
This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25c ("sysctl: treewide:
constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers") constified all the
proc_handlers.

This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the
empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which
will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link :
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/)
Remove the sentinel from ctl_table arrays. Reduce by one the values used
to compare the size of the adjusted arrays.

Pull thermal control updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"These add support for the D1/T113s THS controller to the sun8i driver
and a DT-based mechanism for platforms to indicate a preference to
reboot (instead of shutting down) on crossing a critical trip point,
fix issues, make other improvements (in the IPA governor, the Intel
HFI driver, the exynos driver and the thermal netlink interface among
other places) and clean up code.
One long-standing issue addressed here is that trip point crossing
notifications sent to user space might be unreliable due to the
incorrect handling of trip point hysteresis in the thermal core:
multiple notifications might be sent for the same event or there might
be events without any notification at all.
Specifics:
- Add dynamic thresholds for trip point crossing detection to prevent
trip point crossing notifications from being sent at incorrect
times or not at all in some cases (Rafael J. Wysocki)
- Fix synchronization issues related to the resume of thermal zones
during a system-wide resume and allow thermal zones to be resumed
concurrently (Rafael J. Wysocki)
- Modify the thermal zone unregistration to wait for the given zone
to go away completely before returning to the caller and rework the
sysfs interface for trip points on top of that (Rafael J. Wysocki)
- Fix a possible NULL pointer dereference in thermal zone
registration error path (Rafael J. Wysocki)
- Clean up the IPA thermal governor and modify it (with the help of a
new governor callback) to avoid allocating and freeing memory every
time its throttling callback is invoked (Lukasz Luba)
- Make the IPA thermal governor handle thermal instance weight
changes via sysfs correctly (Lukasz Luba)
- Update the thermal netlink code to avoid sending messages if there
are no recipients (Stanislaw Gruszka)
- Convert Mediatek Thermal to the json-schema (Rafał Miłecki)
- Fix thermal DT bindings issue on Loongson (Binbin Zhou)
- Fix returning NULL instead of -ENODEV during thermal probe on
Loogsoon (Binbin Zhou)
- Add thermal DT binding for tsens on the SM8650 platform (Neil
Armstrong)
- Add reboot on the critical trip point crossing option feature
(Fabio Estevam)
- Use DEFINE_SIMPLE_DEV_PM_OPS do define PM functions for thermal
suspend/resume on AmLogic (Uwe Kleine-König)
- Add D1/T113s THS controller support to the Sun8i thermal control
driver (Maxim Kiselev)
- Fix example in the thermal DT binding for QCom SPMI (Johan Hovold)
- Fix compilation warning in the tmon utility (Florian Eckert)
- Add support for interrupt-based thermal configuration on Exynos
along with a set of related cleanups (Mateusz Majewski)
- Make the Intel HFI thermal driver enable an HFI instance (eg.
processor package) from its first online CPU and disable it when
the last CPU in it goes offline (Ricardo Neri)
- Fix a kernel-doc warning and a spello in the cpuidle_cooling
thermal driver (Randy Dunlap)
- Move the .get_temp() thermal zone callback presence check to the
thermal zone registration code (Daniel Lezcano)
- Use the for_each_trip() macro for trip points table walks in a few
places in the thermal core (Rafael J. Wysocki)
- Make all trip point updates (via sysfs as well as from the platform
firmware) trigger trip change notifications (Rafael J. Wysocki)
- Drop redundant code from the thermal core and make one function in
it take a const pointer argument (Rafael J. Wysocki)"

Introduce thermal_zone_device_critical_reboot() to trigger an
emergency reboot.
It is a counterpart of thermal_zone_device_critical() with the
difference that it will force a reboot instead of shutdown.
The motivation for doing this is to allow the thermal subystem
to trigger a reboot when the temperature reaches the critical
temperature.

When kernel_can_power_off() returns false, and reboot has called with
LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_POWER_OFF, kernel_halt() will be initiated instead of
actual power off function.
However, in this situation, Kernel never explicitly notifies user that
system halted instead of requested power off.
Since halt and power off perform different behavior, and user initiated
reboot call with power off command, not halt, This could be unintended
behavior to user, like this:
~ # poweroff -f
[ 3.581482] reboot: System halted
Therefore, this explicitly notifies user that poweroff is not available,
and halting has been occured as an alternative behavior instead:
~ # poweroff -f
[ 4.123668] reboot: Power off not available: System halted instead

As the emergency restart does not call kernel_restart_prepare(), the
system_state stays in SYSTEM_RUNNING.
Since bae1d3a05a, this hinders i2c_in_atomic_xfer_mode() from becoming
active, and therefore might lead to avoidable warnings in the restart
handlers, e.g.:

Avoid these by setting the correct system_state.
