This patch fixes below KASAN report. The xfs_attr3_node_inactive() gets 'child_bp' at there: error = xfs_trans_get_buf(*trans, mp->m_ddev_targp, child_blkno, XFS_FSB_TO_BB(mp, mp->m_attr_geo->fsbcount), 0, &child_bp); if (error) return error; error = bp->b_error; But it turns to use 'bp', not 'child_bp'. And the 'bp' has been freed by: xfs_trans_brelse(*trans, bp); [75626.212549] ================================================================== [75626.245606] BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in xfs_attr3_node_inactive+0x61e/0x8a0 [xfs] [75626.280164] Read of size 4 at addr ffff88881ffab004 by task rm/30390 [75626.315595] CPU: 13 PID: 30390 Comm: rm Tainted: G W 5.5.0+ #1 [75626.347856] Hardware name: HP ProLiant DL380p Gen8, BIOS P70 08/02/2014 [75626.377864] Call Trace: [75626.388868] dump_stack+0x96/0xe0 [75626.403778] print_address_description.constprop.4+0x1f/0x300 [75626.429656] __kasan_report.cold.8+0x76/0xb0 [75626.448950] ?
