Fedora 35, not fully up-to-date
I run a SiliconDust tuner that converts OTA TV to mp2, which I'm then
able to play back using mplayer. An hard-wired ethernet connection is
used between the tuner and the main CPU.
I notice that there are leftover kworker processes. They are mostly
idle
and only a few have non-zero time, and then at most only a couple of
seconds.
For example,
87547 ? I 0:00 [kworker/u16:1-phy0]
87554 ? I 0:00 [kworker/7:2-events]
87555 ? I 0:00 [kworker/5:2-events]
87556 ? I 0:00 [kworker/u16:2-btrfs-endio-write]
87557 ? I 0:00 [kworker/u16:3-btrfs-delalloc]
87558 ? I 0:00 [kworker/u16:5-btrfs-endio-write]
87559 ? I 0:00 [kworker/u16:7-events_unbound]
87560 ? I 0:00 [kworker/u16:9-btrfs-freespace-write]
87561 ? I 0:00 [kworker/u16:10]
87626 ? I< 0:00 [kworker/u17:1]
The leftover processes seem to vanish when the system is suspended.
Should I be concerned? In particular, I was not aware that I had
installed the btrfs filesystem.
I assume this was posted by mistake, since you already had a reply to a
similar (or possibly identical message) a few days ago.
