Subject: [PATCH 5.10.y 1/2] netfilter: ebtables: Use vmalloc_array() to improve code
Date: Wed, 15 Jul 2026 17:31:45 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260715213146.296837-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026071335-dolly-tinwork-7a6f@gregkh>

From: Qianfeng Rong <rongqianfeng@vivo.com>

[ Upstream commit 46015e6b3ea75297b28d4806564f3f692cf11861 ]

Remove array_size() calls and replace vmalloc() with vmalloc_array() to
simplify the code.  vmalloc_array() is also optimized better, uses fewer
instructions, and handles overflow more concisely[1].
