Hello! I'm working on a minimal embedded system where I intend to use the initramfs as rootfs with /init implementing the entire system. I have no need to mount another file system as rootfs. Yesterday I noticed that the rootfs was removed about 10 minutes after power on. It was just gone. After a few hours of debugging I noticed that inodes started to be evicted at the same time as the rootfs was removed. It turned out that my application periodically opens sockets which are never closed, and as each socket allocates an inode, the system eventually runs out of inodes (I think) and starts evicting old ones to be able to open another socket. Now, as I understand it, the evicted inodes were used by the rootfs, which could explain why the rootfs was removed. I am a bit surprised that opening a socket can result in removing the rootfs. Is this the intended behavior? I'm using kernel 5.5.7 with a minimal configuration on X86_64 QEMU. The configuration can be found here: https://github.com/eerimoq/monolinux-example-project/blob/master/app/linux-x86_64.config / Erik
