How much of a running system's state survives a reboot? I used to think the answer was "nothing", but from time to time a second reboot behaves a little differently from the previous one. The most recent example was an update to bpf.c: Prior to the update an armv7 system had been inclined to drop ssh connections left up for days. After updating and running a build/install cycle the behavior persisted, but since a second reboot with no intentional changes it has stopped. I've not tampered with nextboot, so I don't think that's it. Maybe I'm just imagining imagining things.... Thanks for reading, bob prohaska
