In one of my directory, a strange symbolic link was created:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 vinc17 vinc17    30 2022-09-20 16:55:29 'o the meta-stack pointed by sp + 1.' -> vinc17@zira.1525584:1662328575

After a web search, I've found that this is a part of a string from
"comp.el":

https://github.com/emacs-mirror/emacs/blob/master/lisp/emacs-lisp/comp.el

contains:

(defsubst comp-slot+1 ()
  "Slot into the meta-stack pointed by sp + 1."
  (comp-slot-n (1+ (comp-sp))))

So I suppose that it was created by Emacs.

The 1525584 in the symlink value seems to be a PID, and according to
the atop logs at 17:00:01, there was:
