I agree it would be nice to just store a pointer from in struct ublk_io to its current struct request. I guess we would set it in ubq_complete_io_cmd() and clear it in ublk_commit_completion() (matching when UBLK_IO_FLAG_OWNED_BY_SRV is set), as well as in ublk_timeout() for UBLK_F_UNPRIVILEGED_DEV? I'm not sure it is possible to overlap the fields, though. When using UBLK_U_IO_NEED_GET_DATA, the cmd field is overwritten with the a pointer to the UBLK_U_IO_NEED_GET_DATA command, but the req would need to be recorded earlier upon completion of the UBLK_U_IO_(COMMIT_AND_)FETCH_REQ command. Would you be okay with 2 separate fields? Best, Caleb
