  • kdevtmpfsi question

    From tim wade@21:1/5 to All on Thu Mar 13 10:40:02 2025
    18817 user 20 0 3075708 2.3g 0 S 392.7 29.6 84:30.28 kdevtmpfsi

    As you see above (top output), kdevtmpfsi consumes 2.3g Ram and a lot of
    CPU (392%).
    What's it then?

    Thank you in advance.

    By all means, investigate further. But a first look seems to suggest
    that it is malware:

    Linux is becoming more and more like windows.
