Hi I hit the following General Protection Fault when testing io_uring via the io_uring engine in fio. This was on a VM running 5.2-rc5 and the latest version of fio. The issue occurs for both null_blk and fake NVMe drives. I have not tested bare metal or real NVMe SSDs. The fio script used is given below.
