From 91d435fe368ab30702d7bcd50f680e7185899295 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vitaly Osipov Date: Sat, 24 May 2014 18:19:27 +1000 Subject: staging: rtl8712: remove _malloc() This patch removes all usage of _malloc() and the function itself. Most uses are straightforward replacements by kmalloc(..., GFP_ATOMIC), because this was the definition of _malloc(). In a few places it was possible to use kzalloc() or memdup_user. A further improvement would be to replace GFP_ATOMIC with GFP_KERNEL where possible. Verified by compilation only. Initial replacement done by running a Coccinelle script along the lines of: @@ type T; expression E; identifier V; @@ - V = (T) _malloc(E); + V = kmalloc(E, GFP_ATOMIC); @@ expression E, E1; @@ - E1 = _malloc(E); + E1 = kmalloc(E, GFP_ATOMIC); Signed-off-by: Vitaly Osipov Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- drivers/staging/rtl8712/rtl871x_sta_mgt.c | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'drivers/staging/rtl8712/rtl871x_sta_mgt.c') diff --git a/drivers/staging/rtl8712/rtl871x_sta_mgt.c b/drivers/staging/rtl8712/rtl871x_sta_mgt.c index 8db6849d4b24..6c649842abd7 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/rtl8712/rtl871x_sta_mgt.c +++ b/drivers/staging/rtl8712/rtl871x_sta_mgt.c @@ -51,8 +51,8 @@ u32 _r8712_init_sta_priv(struct sta_priv *pstapriv) struct sta_info *psta; s32 i; - pstapriv->pallocated_stainfo_buf = _malloc(sizeof(struct sta_info) * - NUM_STA + 4); + pstapriv->pallocated_stainfo_buf = kmalloc(sizeof(struct sta_info) * + NUM_STA + 4, GFP_ATOMIC); if (pstapriv->pallocated_stainfo_buf == NULL) return _FAIL; pstapriv->pstainfo_buf = pstapriv->pallocated_stainfo_buf + 4 - -- cgit v1.2.3
