From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Josef Bacik Subject: [PATCH] Btrfs: set trans to null in reserve_metadata_bytes if we commit the transaction Date: Tue, 26 Oct 2010 12:54:30 -0400 Message-ID: <1288112070-2676-1-git-send-email-josef@redhat.com> To: linux-btrfs@vger.kernel.org Return-path: List-ID: btrfs_commit_transaction will free our trans, but because we pass trans to shrink_delalloc we could possibly have a use after free situation. So instead if we commit the transaction, set trans to null and set committed to true so we don't keep trying to commit a transaction. This fixes a panic I could reproduce at will.
