[BUG]
If btrfs_alloc_page_array() fail to allocate all pages but part of the
slots, then the partially allocated pages would be leaked in function
btrfs_submit_compressed_read().
[CAUSE]
As explicitly stated, if btrfs_alloc_page_array() returned -ENOMEM,
caller is responsible to free the partially allocated pages.
For the existing call sites, most of them are fine:
- btrfs_raid_bio::stripe_pages
Handled by free_raid_bio().
- extent_buffer::pages[]
Handled btrfs_release_extent_buffer_pages().
- scrub_stripe::pages[]
Handled by release_scrub_stripe().
But there is one exception in btrfs_submit_compressed_read(), if
btrfs_alloc_page_array() failed, we didn't cleanup the array and freed
the array pointer directly.
Initially there is still the error handling in commit
dd137dd1f2d7
("btrfs: factor out allocating an array of pages"), but later in commit
544fe4a903ce ("btrfs: embed a btrfs_bio into struct compressed_bio"),
the error handling is removed, leading to the possible memory leak.
[FIX]
This patch would add back the error handling first, then to prevent such
situation from happening again, also
Make btrfs_alloc_page_array() to free the allocated pages as a extra
safety net, then we don't need to add the error handling to
btrfs_submit_compressed_read().
Fixes: 544fe4a903ce ("btrfs: embed a btrfs_bio into struct compressed_bio")
