Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: fix a NULL pointer dereference when failed to start a new trasacntion [BUG] Syzbot reported a NULL pointer dereference with the following crash: FAULT_INJECTION: forcing a failure. start_transaction+0x830/0x1670 fs/btrfs/transaction.c:676 prepare_to_relocate+0x31f/0x4c0 fs/btrfs/relocation.c:3642 relocate_block_group+0x169/0xd20 fs/btrfs/relocation.c:3678 ...

Then we continue the error path cleanup in btrfs_balance() by calling reset_balance_state() which will call del_balance_item() to fully delete the balance item in the root tree. However during the small window between set_reloc_contrl() and unset_reloc_control(), we can have a subvolume tree update and created a reloc_root for that subvolume. Then we go into the final btrfs_commit_transaction() of del_balance_item(), and into btrfs_update_reloc_root() inside commit_fs_roots(). That function checks if fs_info->reloc_ctl is in the merge_reloc_tree stage, but since fs_info->reloc_ctl is NULL, it results a NULL pointer dereference. [FIX] Just add extra check on fs_info->reloc_ctl inside btrfs_update_reloc_root(), before checking fs_info->reloc_ctl->merge_reloc_tree. That DEAD_RELOC_TREE handling is to prevent further modification to the reloc tree during merge stage, but since there is no reloc_ctl at all, we do not need to bother that.

Luego continuamos con la limpieza de la ruta de error en btrfs_balance() llamando a reset_balance_state() que llamar\u00e1 a del_balance_item() para eliminar por completo el elemento de balance en el \u00e1rbol ra\u00edz. Sin embargo, durante la peque\u00f1a ventana entre set_reloc_contrl() y unset_reloc_control(), podemos tener una actualizaci\u00f3n del \u00e1rbol de subvolumen y crear un reloc_root para ese subvolumen. Luego pasamos a la btrfs_commit_transaction() final de del_balance_item() y a btrfs_update_reloc_root() dentro de commit_fs_roots(). Esa funci\u00f3n verifica si fs_info-\u0026gt;reloc_ctl est\u00e1 en la etapa merge_reloc_tree, pero dado que fs_info-\u0026gt;reloc_ctl es NULL, da como resultado una desreferencia de puntero NULL. [SOLUCI\u00d3N] Solo hay que a\u00f1adir una comprobaci\u00f3n adicional en fs_info-\u0026gt;reloc_ctl dentro de btrfs_update_reloc_root(), antes de comprobar fs_info-\u0026gt;reloc_ctl-\u0026gt;merge_reloc_tree. El manejo de DEAD_RELOC_TREE sirve para evitar modificaciones adicionales del \u00e1rbol de reubicaci\u00f3n durante la etapa de fusi\u00f3n, pero como no hay ning\u00fan reloc_ctl, no tenemos que preocuparnos por eso."
