hidden files in shmfs

[Hansmair Ulrich <ulrich.hansmair@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

hi,


linux:~ # df /dev/shm
Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
shmfs                 10485760   1389068   9096692  14% /dev/shm
linux:~ # df -i /dev/shm
Filesystem            Inodes   IUsed   IFree IUse% Mounted on
shmfs                1011154       7 1011147    1% /dev/shm
linux:~ # ls /dev/shm
.  ..


I've 7 inodes but can't see any files in /dev/shm. who is using 1,4 Gig ?
ipcs says

linux:~ # ipcs -m
------ Shared Memory Segments --------
key        shmid      owner      perms      bytes      nattch     status
0x00004dbe 33488896   root      777        239060     0
0x0382bea5 33554434   sidadm    666        4096       0

looks like shmfs is slowly running full and no shared memory available
at the end of the day. is rebooting the only solution?

I'm running suse kernel 2.4.19-304.

cheers
uli
