commit ba480dd4db9f1798541eb2d1c423fc95feee8d36 upstream. A crafted image has empty root tree block, which will later cause NULL pointer dereference. The following trees should never be empty: 1) Tree root Must contain at least root items for extent tree, device tree and fs tree 2) Chunk tree Or we can't even bootstrap as it contains the mapping. 3) Fs tree At least inode item for top level inode (.). 4) Device tree Dev extents for chunks 5) Extent tree Must have corresponding extent for each chunk. If any of them is empty, we are sure the fs is corrupted and no need to mount it.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
