From 96fa515e70f3e4b98685ef8cac9d737fc62f10e1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Qu Wenruo wqu@suse.com Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2025 07:54:06 +0930 Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: tree-checker: fix the incorrect inode ref size check
[BUG] Inside check_inode_ref(), we need to make sure every structure, including the btrfs_inode_extref header, is covered by the item. But our code is incorrectly using "sizeof(iref)", where @iref is just a pointer.
This means "sizeof(iref)" will always be "sizeof(void *)", which is much smaller than "sizeof(struct btrfs_inode_extref)".
This will allow some bad inode extrefs to sneak in, defeating tree-checker.
[FIX] Fix the typo by calling "sizeof(*iref)", which is the same as "sizeof(struct btrfs_inode_extref)", and will be the correct behavior we want.
