---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---\n\n[CAUSE]\nFirstly the fs has a corrupted csum tree root, thus to mount the fs we\nhave to go \"ro,rescue=ibadroots\" mount option.\n\nNormally with that mount option, a bad csum tree root should set\nBTRFS_FS_STATE_NO_DATA_CSUMS flag, so that any future data read will\nignore csum search.\n\nBut in this particular case, we have the following call trace that\ncaused NULL csum root, but not setting BTRFS_FS_STATE_NO_DATA_CSUMS:\n\nload_global_roots_objectid():\n\n\t\tret = btrfs_search_slot();\n\t\t/* Succeeded */\n\t\tbtrfs_item_key_to_cpu()\n\t\tfound = true;\n\t\t/* We found the root item for csum tree. */\n\t\troot = read_tree_root_path();\n\t\tif (IS_ERR(root)) {\n\t\t\tif (!btrfs_test_opt(fs_info, IGNOREBADROOTS))\n\t\t\t/*\n\t\t\t * Since we have rescue=ibadroots mount option,\n\t\t\t * @ret is still 0.\n\t\t\t */\n\t\t\tbreak;\n\tif (!found || ret) {\n\t\t/* @found is true, @ret is 0, error handling for csum\n\t\t * tree is skipped.\n\t\t */\n\t}\n\nThis means we completely skipped to set BTRFS_FS_STATE_NO_DATA_CSUMS if\nthe csum tree is corrupted, which results unexpected later csum lookup.\n\n[FIX]\nIf read_tree_root_path() failed, always populate @ret to the error\nnumber.\n\nAs at the end of the function, we need @ret to determine if we need to\ndo the extra error handling for csum tree.", "affected": [ { "vendor": "Linux", "product": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "versions": [ { "version": "abed4aaae4f71a7bcdbe90a65319b6e772a2689d", "status": "affected",
