Subject: [PATCH v3 3/6] qnx6: avoid double brelse() on error path in qnx6_fill_super()
Date: Thu, 24 Sep 2026 07:39:16 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260924073920.2782917-4-benquike@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260921042511.1473629-4-benquike@gmail.com>
In qnx6_fill_super(), sb_buf is assigned the return value of
sb_bread(sb, 1). If parsing the primary superblock fails, execution
branches to out_sbl2, which calls brelse(sbi->sb_buf) and then falls
through to out_sbl1, which calls brelse(sb_buf) a second time on the same
buffer head pointer, causing a double free / refcount underflow.
Fix the error-handling cleanup sequence in qnx6_fill_super() to avoid
calling brelse(sb_buf) twice.
Fixes: 5d026c724220 ("fs: initial qnx6fs addition")
