btrfs: balance: fix potential bg lookup failure in chunk_usage_range_filter()
[BUG] Running btrfs balance with a usage range filter (-dusage=min..max) can trigger a null-ptr-deref when metadata corruption causes a chunk to have no corresponding block group in the in-memory cache: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000070-0x0000000000000077] RIP: 0010:chunk_usage_range_filter fs/btrfs/volumes.c:3845 [inline] RIP: 0010:should_balance_chunk fs/btrfs/volumes.c:4031 [inline] RIP: 0010:__btrfs_balance fs/btrfs/volumes.c:4182 [inline] RIP: 0010:btrfs_balance+0x249e/0x4320 fs/btrfs/volumes.c:4618 ... Call Trace: btrfs_ioctl_balance fs/btrfs/ioctl.c:3577 [inline] btrfs_ioctl+0x25cf/0x5b90 fs/btrfs/ioctl.c:5313 vfs_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:51 [inline] ... The bug is reproducible on recent development branch. [CAUSE] Two separate data structures are involved: 1. The on-disk chunk tree, which records every chunk (logical address space region) and is iterated by __btrfs_balance(). 2. The in-memory block group cache (fs_info->block_group_cache_tree), which is built at mount time by btrfs_read_block_groups() and holds a struct btrfs_block_group for each chunk. This cache is what the usage range filter queries. On a well-formed filesystem, these two are kept in 1:1 correspondence. However, btrfs_read_block_groups() builds the cache from block group items in the extent tree, not directly from the chunk tree. A corrupted image can therefore contain a chunk item in the chunk tree whose corresponding block group item is absent from the extent tree; that chunk's block group is then never inserted into the in-memory cache. When balance iterates the chunk tree and reaches such an orphaned chunk, should_balance_chunk() calls chunk_usage_range_filter(), which queries the block group cache: cache = btrfs_lookup_block_group(fs_info, chunk_offset); chunk_used = cache->used; /* cache may be NULL */ btrfs_lookup_block_group() returns NULL silently when no cached entry covers chunk_offset. chunk_usage_range_filter() does not check the return value, so the immediately following dereference of cache->used triggers the crash. [FIX] Add a NULL check after btrfs_lookup_block_group() in chunk_usage_range_filter(). When the lookup fails, emit a btrfs_err() message identifying the affected bytenr and return -EUCLEAN to indicate filesystem corruption. Since chunk_usage_range_filter() now has an error path, change its return type from bool to error pointer, return 0 if the chunk matches the usage range, and 1 if it should be filtered out.
