smatch stuff: potential NULL dereference in btrfs_rm_device()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Yan,

Smatch complains about this code from 2008.

fs/btrfs/volumes.c +1417 btrfs_rm_device(157)
	error: we previously assumed 'fs_devices' could be null (see line 1412)

  1412                  while (fs_devices) {
                               ^^^^^^^^^^
checked here.

  1413                          if (fs_devices->seed == cur_devices)
  1414                                  break;
  1415                          fs_devices = fs_devices->seed;
  1416                  }
  1417                  fs_devices->seed = cur_devices->seed;
                        ^^^^^^^^^^^^
dereferenced here.

If we don't hit the break statement, then at the end of the loop we'd
oops.

regards,
dan carpenter
