[PATCH] btrfs: fix dereference on inode->i_sb before inode null check

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

 



From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

inode is being deferenced and then inode is checked to see if it
is null, implying we potentially could have a null pointer deference
on inode.

Found with static analysis by CoverityScan, CID 1389472

Fix this by dereferencing inode only after the inode null check.

Fixes: 0b246afa62b0cf5 ("btrfs: root->fs_info cleanup, add fs_info convenience variables")
