This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled btrfs: fix extent buffer leak after tree mod log failure at split_node() to the 5.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: btrfs-fix-extent-buffer-leak-after-tree-mod-log-fail.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 45c5e4d407f87700bc6e8a37f44eb31c6ee2d1cb Author: Filipe Manana <fdmanana@xxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Jun 8 11:27:38 2023 +0100 btrfs: fix extent buffer leak after tree mod log failure at split_node() [ Upstream commit ede600e497b1461d06d22a7d17703d9096868bc3 ] At split_node(), if we fail to log the tree mod log copy operation, we return without unlocking the split extent buffer we just allocated and without decrementing the reference we own on it. Fix this by unlocking it and decrementing the ref count before returning.
