Subject: [PATCH V2] mkfs.xfs: fix segmentation fault caused by accessing a null pointer
Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2023 10:20:30 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <182e9ac9-933f-ed8e-1f5a-9ffc2d730eb7@huawei.com> (raw)
We encountered a segfault while testing the mkfs.xfs + iscsi.

(gdb) p bp
$1 = 0x0
```
void
xfs_log_sb(
struct xfs_trans *tp)
{
// iscsi offline
...
// failed to read sb, bp = NULL
struct xfs_buf *bp = xfs_trans_getsb(tp);
...
}
```
When writing data to sb, if the device is abnormal at this time,
the bp may be empty. Using it without checking will result in
a segfault.
So it's necessary to ensure that the superblock has been cached.
