Staudey yeah caught that in my working notes that I didn't bother to post since * crickets. *
Not as glamorous as 67 rogue GBS but its still a yuge 671MB zombie deleted file that can't be killed and spawns a 671MB log everyday. If I have that right?
(process id 1056
owner brent
PRI: process priority by the kernel. (20)
NI: process priority reset by the user or root. (-11????)
VIR: virtual memory the process is consuming. (1979MB)
RES: physical memory the process is consuming. (14320 of what unit???)
SHR: shared memory that the process is consuming. (9332 have no idea what this is?)
S: current process state. (S. But what does S mean?)
CPU%: percentage of CPU that the process is consuming. (0.0 of cpu...INTERESTING).
MEM%: percentage of memory that the process is consuming. (0.1 even MORE interesting).
TIME+: time measured in clock ticks since process execution started. (24 seconds)
Command: name of the command that started the process (pulse log)
LSOF left to right:
COMMAND: pulsaudio
PID (1056)
USER (ME)
FD (file descriptor # so 6u what does that index with???))
TYPE (of node-REGULAR)
DEVICE: device 0,1? what does that mean?" "This column contains device numbers. These are the corresponding devices that are being used for the particular file, from the systems /dev directory." Meaning??
SIZE/OFF " size of the file or the file offset in bytes." I WAS WRONG NOT KB, but B so 671008864 bytes = 671 MB still a huge file for a ZOMBIE)
NLINK "contains the file link count when +L is specified" so O links
NODE (3072 "Consult the man page of lsof, in general it's either the node number of a local file, or inode number of an NFS file in the server host, but can be other values as well." ????)
NAME "memfd_create() creates an anonymous file and returns a file descriptor that refers to it. The file behaves like a regular file, and so can be modified, truncated, memory-mapped, and so on. However, unlike a regular file, it lives in RAM and has a volatile backing storage. Once all references to the file are dropped, it is automatically released. Anonymous memory is used for all backing pages of the file." GIBBERISH)
edited with more despair.
