# FS QA Test No. 433
#
# Regression test for an XFS NULL xattr buffer problem during unlink. XFS had a
# bug where the attr fork walk during file removal could go off the rails due to
# a stale reference to content of a released buffer. Memory pressure could cause
# this reference to point to free or reused memory and cause subsequent
# attribute fork lookups to fail, return a NULL buffer and possibly crash.
#
# This test emulates this behavior using an error injection knob to explicitly
# disable buffer LRU caching. This forces the attr walk to execute under
# conditions where each buffer is immediately freed on release.
#
# Commit f35c5e10c6ed ("xfs: reinit btree pointer on attr tree inactivation
# walk") fixed the bug.
