Hello Anand Jain,

The patch 1eea2715ca9b: "btrfs: error out if
btrfs_attach_transaction() fails" from Sep 28, 2017, leads to the
following static checker warning:

	fs/btrfs/volumes.c:2502 btrfs_init_new_device()
	error: 'trans' dereferencing possible ERR_PTR()

fs/btrfs/volumes.c
  2479                  ret = btrfs_relocate_sys_chunks(fs_info);
  2480                  if (ret < 0)
  2481                          btrfs_handle_fs_error(fs_info, ret,
  2482                                      "Failed to relocate sys chunks after device initialization. This can be fixed using the \"btrfs balance\" command.");
  2483                  trans = btrfs_attach_transaction(root);
  2484                  if (IS_ERR(trans)) {
  2485                          if (PTR_ERR(trans) == -ENOENT)
  2486                                  return 0;
  2487                          ret = PTR_ERR(trans);
  2488                          goto error_sysfs;
                                ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
We used to have a direct return here.

  2489                  }
  2490                  ret = btrfs_commit_transaction(trans);
  2491          }
  2492  
  2493          /* Update ctime/mtime for libblkid */
  2494          update_dev_time(device_path);
  2495          return ret;
  2496  
  2497  error_sysfs:
  2498          btrfs_sysfs_rm_device_link(fs_info->fs_devices, device);
  2499  error_trans:
  2500          if (seeding_dev)
  2501                  sb->s_flags |= MS_RDONLY;
  2502          btrfs_end_transaction(trans);
                                      ^^^^^^
But now it's dereferencing an error pointer inside this function.

  2503          rcu_string_free(device->name);
  2504          kfree(device);
  2505  error:
  2506          blkdev_put(bdev, FMODE_EXCL);
  2507          if (seeding_dev && !unlocked) {
  2508                  mutex_unlock(&uuid_mutex);
  2509                  up_write(&sb->s_umount);
  2510          }
  2511          return ret;
  2512  }

regards,
dan carpenter
