I thought they were illegal dribbles or palming.
Yes, and you use the signal for palming/carrying the ball.

However, it is a violation because the dribble ends when the ball is palmed/carried - when the ball is pushed back to the floor - violation. (We just use the carry signal for the benefit of howler monkeys everywhere.)

If you look at rule nine, there is no mention of palming or carrying - just the double dribble prohibition and exceptions.
