From: Qu Wenruo <wqu@xxxxxxxx> commit 4b654acdae850f48b8250b9a578a4eaa518c7a6f upstream. In btrfs_read_block_groups(), if we have an invalid block group which has mixed type (DATA|METADATA) while the fs doesn't have MIXED_GROUPS feature, we error out without freeing the block group cache. This patch will add the missing btrfs_put_block_group() to prevent memory leak. Note for stable backports: the file to patch in versions <= 5.3 is fs/btrfs/extent-tree.c Fixes: 49303381f19a ("Btrfs: bail out if block group has different mixed flag") CC: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx # 4.9+ Reviewed-by: Anand Jain <anand.jain@xxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Johannes Thumshirn <jthumshirn@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Qu Wenruo <wqu@xxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: David Sterba <dsterba@xxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@xxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/btrfs/extent-tree.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) --- a/fs/btrfs/extent-tree.c +++ b/fs/btrfs/extent-tree.c @@ -10325,6 +10325,7 @@ int btrfs_read_block_groups(struct btrfs btrfs_err(info, "bg %llu is a mixed block group but filesystem hasn't enabled mixed block groups", cache->key.objectid); + btrfs_put_block_group(cache); ret = -EINVAL; goto error; }
