Have a look at curl/docs/examples/hiperfifo.c it should give you some
idea of where to start.

The last argument passed in to your read/write callbacks is the same
pointer you can set with CURLOPT_READDATA/CURLOPT_WRITEDATA.
If you use the builtin callbacks it must be a FILE pointer, but if you are
using your own callbacks, it can be a pointer to any type of data structure
you choose.

If you need a more general way to associate something to a specific
handle, have a look at CURLOPT_PRIVATE and CURLINFO_PRIVATE.

Not sure exactly what you mean here.
