RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Yuki Okada 2020-10-14 08:59:17 UTC 
Description of problem:
- ssh x11 connection hangs (Terminal prompt does NOT return) if launching and exiting gnome-terminal via ssh x11 forwarding.
- The prompt returns only after pressing Ctrl+C.
- Last part of ssh -vvv debug log is like below. It appears some open connections remain undeleted.

  debug3: channel 4: status: The following connections are open:
    #2 x11 (t4 r4 i0/0 o0/0 fd 8/8 cc -1)
    #3 x11 (t4 r5 i0/0 o0/0 fd 9/9 cc -1)
    #4 x11 (t4 r6 i3/0 o3/0 fd 10/10 cc -1)
    #5 x11 (t4 r7 i0/0 o0/0 fd 11/11 cc -1)

  Killed by signal 2.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
dbus-1.10.24-15.el7
openssh-7.4p1-21.el7
gnome-terminal-3.28.2-3.el7

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run "ssh -X <remote hostname/ipaddress> gnome-terminal" in gnome-terminal
2. Run "exit" in gnome-terminal launched by ssh x11 forwarding
3. ssh connection hangs (The prompt does not return)

Actual results:
ssh connection hangs (prompt does NOT return)

Expected results:
ssh connection does not hang (prompt returns immediately)

Additional info:
- Similar issue was reported in BZ#1112339, and fixed in dbus-1.10.24-1.el7. But our issue occurs in dbus-1.10.24-15.el7.
- The issue is not reproduced (Prompt returns immediately) when using xterm instead of gnome-terminal like below.

  $ ssh -X <remote hostname/ipaddress> xterm

- When running "ssh -X <hostname/ip> gnome-terminal" between 2 RHEL8 servers, gnome-terminal is displayed in "remote" server (not in the "local" server where ssh -X is run). If you run the following, gnome-terminal is displayed in "local" server, and the issue is also reproducible (prompt does not return).

  $ ssh -X <remote hostname/ipaddress> 'dbus-launch --exit-with-session gnome-terminal'
