| Sep 12, 2021 at 9:15 | comment | added | joonas.fi | @BulatM. tmpfs is explicitly RAM-backed (it will swap though if not all fits in RAM), so on power off everything in /run is lost by design, and no process has to go and clean up previous files. | |
| Feb 5, 2017 at 5:49 | comment | added | anon | @Ian, if it's a tmpfs filesystem, then on reboot it will be emptied. Your question: as I know, files would not be automatically deleted, rather process itself has to do proper cleanup. | |
