From: Julia Lawall Date: Mon, 24 Jan 2011 19:55:19 +0000 (+0000) Subject: fs/btrfs/inode.c: Add missing IS_ERR test X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=34d19bada00f4825588b338a8ee193820f9ceeb0;p=linux-beck.git fs/btrfs/inode.c: Add missing IS_ERR test After the conditional that precedes the following code, inode may be an ERR_PTR value. This can eg result from a memory allocation failure via the call to btrfs_iget, and thus does not imply that root is different than sub_root. Thus, an IS_ERR check is added to ensure that there is no dereference of inode in this case. The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // @r@ identifier f; @@ f(...) { ... return ERR_PTR(...); } @@ identifier r.f, fld; expression x; statement S1,S2; @@ x = f(...) ... when != IS_ERR(x) ( if (IS_ERR(x) ||...) S1 else S2 | *x->fld ) // Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Signed-off-by: Chris Mason --- diff --git a/fs/btrfs/inode.c b/fs/btrfs/inode.c index 2c9a2f7d5631..2b7d251d6ad1 100644 --- a/fs/btrfs/inode.c +++ b/fs/btrfs/inode.c @@ -4137,7 +4137,7 @@ struct inode *btrfs_lookup_dentry(struct inode *dir, struct dentry *dentry) } srcu_read_unlock(&root->fs_info->subvol_srcu, index); - if (root != sub_root) { + if (!IS_ERR(inode) && root != sub_root) { down_read(&root->fs_info->cleanup_work_sem); if (!(inode->i_sb->s_flags & MS_RDONLY)) btrfs_orphan_cleanup(sub_root);
