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.

Memory Leak
Description of problem:
There appears to be a bug in Spice that causes memory leak ( 4Mb/sec ). When the spicec process reaches 2G it is terminated causing the error seen in the browser.
Problem appears to be the fact that VM was configured as dual monitor but second monitor was off and "Extend Desktop to this monitor" was not checked.
When it is expanded and second monitor is used the memory leak stops and spice is stable.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
spicec.exe version 5.0.0.10029
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create VM
2. Specify 2 monitors
3. Disable 1 and have desktop only on 1 monitor
Actual results:
Spice client memory consumption increase until the point that Windows terminates it.
Expected results:
Spicec should be stable and not leak memory in cases where 2 monitors are defined but only 1 active in VM.
