This:

# truncate --size=8g
# dd if=/dev/zero of=file conv=notrunc  bs=4 seek=16384 count=1
# valgrind ./btrfs rescue super-recover file -v

yields:

==4604== Memcheck, a memory error detector
==4604== Copyright (C) 2002-2012, and GNU GPL'd, by Julian Seward et al.
==4604== Using Valgrind-3.8.1 and LibVEX; rerun with -h for copyright info
==4604== Command: ./btrfs rescue super-recover file -v
==4604== 
All Devices:
	Device: id = 1, name = file

Before Recovering:
	[All good supers]:
		device name = file
		superblock bytenr = 67108864

	[All bad supers]:
		device name = file
		superblock bytenr = 65536


Make sure this is a btrfs disk otherwise the tool will destroy other fs, Are you sure? [y/N]: y

i.e. I think we are double freeing memory:

        close_ctree(root); // <-- here
no_recover:
        recover_err_str(ret);
        free_recover_superblock(&recover); // <-- and here

I can't really work out what all this is all doing, but maybe the fix is obvious
to Wang Shilong (who wrote the original code)?

Thanks,
