These fields can be left as NULL if ffs_vget() allocates an inode but fails before the dinode memory has been allocated. There are two cases when this can occur: when we lose a race and another process has added the inode to the hash, and when reading the inode off disk fails. The bug was observed by Kris on one of the package-building machines. See http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=freebsd-current&m=105172731013411&w=2 In Kris's case, it was the bread() that failed because of a disk error. The alternative to this patch is to ensure that ffs_vget() does not call vput() when the inode that hasn't been properly initialised. |
