Hi Jens, using fio and io_uring engine with SQPOLL and IOPOLL enabled, I had the following issue that happens after 4/5 seconds fio has started. Initially I had this issue on Linux v5.7-rc6, but I just tried also Linux v5.7-rc7: [ 75.343479] nvme nvme0: pci function 0000:04:00.0 [ 75.355110] nvme nvme0: 16/0/15 default/read/poll queues [ 75.364946] nvme0n1: p1 [ 82.739285] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000000000003b0 [ 82.747054] #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode [ 82.752785] #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page [ 82.758516] PGD 800000046c042067 P4D 800000046c042067 PUD 461fcf067 PMD 0 [ 82.766186] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI [ 82.770076] CPU: 2 PID: 1307 Comm: io_uring-sq Not tainted 5.7.0-rc7 #11 [ 82.777939] Hardware name: Dell Inc.
