We have that problem right now, in the current tree. And agree it's not the best. sq_data should be fine under the (ctx) lock, it's just the thread that may go away. Maybe we just cache the cpu/pid of it when we create it, seems better than needing to query it. And for the other stats, should be fine in ctx->sq_data. -- Jens Axboe
