Instead of allocating the erofs_sb_info in fill_super() allocate it
during erofs_get_tree() and then you can ensure that you always have the
info you need available during erofs_kill_sb(). See the appended
(untested) patch.
Hi Christian,

Yeah, that is a good way I think. Although sbi will be allocated
unconditionally instead but that is minor.

I'm on OSSNA this week, will test this patch more when returning.

Hi Baokun,

Could you also check this on your side?

Thanks,
Gao Xiang
Hi Xiang,

This patch does fix the initial problem.


Hi Christian,

Thanks for the patch, this is a good idea. Just with nits below.
Otherwise feel free to add.

Since erofs_sb_info is now allocated in erofs_fc_get_tree(), why not
encapsulate the above lines as erofs_ctx_to_info() helper function
to be called in erofs_fc_get_tree()?Then erofs_fc_fill_super() wouldn't
have to use erofs_fs_context and would prevent the fsid from being
freed twice.
Hi Baokun,

I'm not sure if Christian has enough time to polish the whole
codebase (I'm happy if do so). Basically, that is just a hint
to the issue, if you have more time, I guess you could also help
revive this patch together (also because you also have a real
EROFS test environment).

Let me also check this next week after OSSNA travelling.

Thanks,
Gao Xiang

Hi Xiang,

Ok, then I will polish the patch and send it out as a v2.

Thanks,
Baokun
