I had a process whose state under top was listed as devbuf.
This process seemed to be stuck and I was unable to kill it.
I ended up rebooting the box to reset it.

None of the man pages (TOP, PS) list the devbuf state.  
What is it and what was the process trying to do?  
I am guessing it had something to do with memory allocation.
