commit 9b2f20344d450137d015b380ff0c2e2a6a170135 upstream. The btrfs_alloc_dummy_root() uses ERR_PTR as the error return value rather than NULL, if error happened, there will be a NULL pointer dereference: BUG: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in btrfs_free_dummy_root+0x21/0x50 [btrfs] Read of size 8 at addr 000000000000002c by task insmod/258926 CPU: 2 PID: 258926 Comm: insmod Tainted: G W 6.1.0-rc2+ #5 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.14.0-1.fc33 04/01/2014 Call Trace: <TASK> dump_stack_lvl+0x34/0x44 kasan_report+0xb7/0x140 kasan_check_range+0x145/0x1a0 btrfs_free_dummy_root+0x21/0x50 [btrfs] btrfs_test_free_space_cache+0x1a8c/0x1add [btrfs] btrfs_run_sanity_tests+0x65/0x80 [btrfs] init_btrfs_fs+0xec/0x154 [btrfs] do_one_initcall+0x87/0x2a0 do_init_module+0xdf/0x320 load_module+0x3006/0x3390 __do_sys_finit_module+0x113/0x1b0 do_syscall_64+0x35/0x80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x46/0xb0 Fixes: aaedb55bc08f ("Btrfs: add tests for btrfs_get_extent") CC: stable@vger.kernel.org # 4.9+ Reviewed-by: Anand Jain <anand.jain@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Zhang Xiaoxu <zhangxiaoxu5@huawei.com> Reviewed-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com> Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
