Hi gang,

Eric and I went through the warnings that a Coverity scan raised against
the reasonably recent btrfs-progs that's in Fedora.  We tried to tackle
the lowest hanging fruit: these are the most obvious and least risky
fixes.

If you ran your tests against the btrfs-progs in Fedora 18 then your tests may not have found problems fixed by the "valgrind" patch on F18. This patch is not applied to the current David Sterba's integration branches.

If you have the time, it might be useful (my opinion) to run your tests against Sterba's integration-02130201 branch ... some of the problems may be fixed and other not but you also may find some additional problems. IMO, this branch (or something similar) will be the basis for a future v0.20 btrfs-progs ... at least that is what I am using/testing with. There are over 80 commits in this branch over what is the baseis for the package in Fedora 18.
