[PATCH] ext4: fix a NULL pointer when validating an inode bitmap

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

 



It's possible to hit a NULL pointer exception while accessing the
sb->s_group_info in ext4_validate_inode_bitmap(), when calling
ext4_get_group_info().

 EXT4-fs (loop0): warning: mounting unchecked fs, running e2fsck is recommended
 EXT4-fs error (device loop0): ext4_clear_blocks:866: inode #32: comm mount: attempt to clear invalid blocks 16777450 len 1

Fix the issue by adding an extra NULL check.  And, while there, also ensure the
right error code (-EFSCORRUPTED) is propagated to user-space.  EUCLEAN is more
informative than ENOMEM.
