With suitably crafted reiserfs image and mount command reiserfs will crash when trying to verify that XATTR_ROOT directory can be looked up in / as that recurses back to xattr code like: xattr_lookup+0x24/0x280 fs/reiserfs/xattr.c:395 reiserfs_xattr_get+0x89/0x540 fs/reiserfs/xattr.c:677 reiserfs_get_acl+0x63/0x690 fs/reiserfs/xattr_acl.c:209 get_acl+0x152/0x2e0 fs/posix_acl.c:141 check_acl fs/namei.c:277 [inline] acl_permission_check fs/namei.c:309 [inline] generic_permission+0x2ba/0x550 fs/namei.c:353 do_inode_permission fs/namei.c:398 [inline] inode_permission+0x234/0x4a0 fs/namei.c:463 lookup_one_len+0xa6/0x200 fs/namei.c:2557 reiserfs_lookup_privroot+0x85/0x1e0 fs/reiserfs/xattr.c:972 reiserfs_fill_super+0x2b51/0x3240 fs/reiserfs/super.c:2176 mount_bdev+0x24f/0x360 fs/super.c:1417 Fix the problem by bailing from reiserfs_xattr_get() when xattrs are not yet initialized.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
