From 42a657f57628402c73237547f0134e083e2f6764 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pan Bian Date: Fri, 23 Nov 2018 18:10:15 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: relocation: set trans to be NULL after ending transaction The function relocate_block_group calls btrfs_end_transaction to release trans when update_backref_cache returns 1, and then continues the loop body. If btrfs_block_rsv_refill fails this time, it will jump out the loop and the freed trans will be accessed. This may result in a use-after-free bug. The patch assigns NULL to trans after trans is released so that it will not be accessed.
