Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] xfs: fix inode ref leak in attr intent recovery
Date: Wed, 10 Jun 2026 10:20:27 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260610022028.79846-2-gaoyingjie@uniontech.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260610022028.79846-1-gaoyingjie@uniontech.com>

xfs_attri_recover_work() grabs the target inode, attaches it to the
reconstructed attr work item, and adds that work item to the defer
pending list.

If xfs_attr_recover_work() fails to allocate the recovery transaction,
it returns immediately without dropping the inode reference.  The later
cancel path only frees the attr work item state, so the inode reference
leaks.

Send the failure through the existing cleanup path so the inode
reference is dropped before the function returns the error.

Fixes: e70fb328d527 ("xfs: recreate work items when recovering intent items")
