Subject: [RFC] Check if file_data is initialized
Date: Thu,  9 Jan 2020 14:17:50 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)

With combination of --fixedbufs and an old version of fio I've managed
to get a strange situation, when doing io_iopoll_complete NULL pointer
dereference on file_data was caused in io_free_req_many. Interesting
enough, the very same configuration doesn't fail on a newest version of
fio (the old one is fc220349e4514, the new one is 2198a6b5a9f4), but I
guess it still makes sense to have this check if it's possible to craft
such request to io_uring.

More details about configuration:

[global]
filename=/dev/vda
rw=randread
bs=256k
direct=1
time_based=1
randrepeat=1
gtod_reduce=1

[fiotest]

fio test.fio \
    --readonly \
    --ioengine=io_uring \
    --iodepth 1024 \
    --fixedbufs \
    --hipri \
    --numjobs=1 \
    --runtime=10

I'm not entirely sure if my analysis is correct, but since this change
fixes the issue for me, I've decided to post it.
