From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Mon, 17 May 2010 03:00:00 +0000 (-0400) Subject: ext4: Avoid crashing on NULL ptr dereference on a filesystem error X-Git-Tag: v2.6.34.8~241 X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3a58dfe3e599ca8188bd80d982f03ef202860075;p=karo-tx-linux.git ext4: Avoid crashing on NULL ptr dereference on a filesystem error commit f70f362b4a6fe47c239dbfb3efc0cc2c10e4f09c upstream. If the EOFBLOCK_FL flag is set when it should not be and the inode is zero length, then eh_entries is zero, and ex is NULL, so dereferencing ex to print ex->ee_block causes a kernel OOPS in ext4_ext_map_blocks(). On top of that, the error message which is printed isn't very helpful. So we fix this by printing something more explanatory which doesn't involve trying to print ex->ee_block.
