[PATCH] fs: btrfs: Fix a possible null-pointer dereference in insert_inline_extent()

From: Jia-Ju Bai
Date: Tue Jul 23 2019 - 22:11:42 EST


In insert_inline_extent(), there is an if statement on line 181 to check
whether compressed_pages is NULL:
if (compressed_size && compressed_pages)

When compressed_pages is NULL, compressed_pages is used on line 215:
cpage = compressed_pages[i];

Thus, a possible null-pointer dereference may occur.

To fix this possible bug, compressed_pages is checked on line 214.

This bug is found by a static analysis tool STCheck written by us.
