Be on safe side and always initialize mountinfo in set_fs_root(). I got a crash report in get_btrfs_fs_root() caused by tb being zero while referring tb->cache in target = mnt_resolve_target(mnt_fs_get_target(fs), tb->cache); Triggered by command: mount -t btrfs -o user /dev/sdh1 /media/sdh1 However I was not able to reproduce the crash, the reason was apparent. NULL tb was passed to mnt_table_get_fs_root() from set_fs_root(). set_fs_root() got it as upd->mountinfo being NULL from utab_new_entry(). That got it from mnt_update_set_fs(), that from mnt_context_prepare_update() (where it is cxt->update->mountinfo). At least the constructor mnt_new_update() can create context with cxt->update being not NULL and cxt->update->mountinfo being NULL. It is also possible to pass to mnt_context_prepare_update() with cxt->update not being NULL but cxt->update->mountinfo being NULL created by mnt_new_context(), e. g. from mnt_context_mount().
