Hi,

I was looking at ExamineBitmap() and noticed that your patch below,
seems to introduce a use after free bug.

commit b98043a2f8e7bb5b1918e2e02778f822f9dd4d3a
Author: Guoqing Jiang <gqjiang@suse.com>
Date:   Wed Jun 10 13:42:07 2015 +0800

    Show all bitmaps while examining bitmap
    
    This adds capability of exmining bitmaps corresponding to all
    nodes/slots on the device.

Line 284 does a close(fd), but further down the code your patch
introduces:

+       } else {
+               printf("   Cluster nodes : %d\n", sb->nodes);
+               printf("    Cluster name : %64s\n", sb->cluster_name);
+               for (i = 0; i < (int)sb->nodes; i++) {
+                       if (i) {
+                               free(info);
+                               info = bitmap_fd_read(fd, brief);
+                               sb = &info->sb;
+                       }

It's not totally obvious to me here what the intention is for clustered
md here. Are you intending to use the same fd as was used at the top of
ExamineBitmap() or is it meant to open a new fd based on each clustered
entry?

In either case, the code as it is right now is certainly not going to
work :(

Cheers,
Jes
