Package: gdm3
Version: 3.14.2-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

everytime I lock the GNOME session and unlock it again a new
gdm-session-worker process is created.

Here's what the process list looks like after some hours of uptime:

$ ps ax|grep gdm-session-worker
  718 ?        Sl     0:00 gdm-session-worker [pam/gdm-password]
  720 ?        Sl     0:00 gdm-session-worker [pam/gdm-fingerprint]
 2583 ?        Sl     0:01 gdm-session-worker [pam/gdm-password]
 3003 ?        Sl     0:00 gdm-session-worker [pam/gdm-password]
 3005 ?        Sl     0:00 gdm-session-worker [pam/gdm-fingerprint]
 8132 ?        Sl     0:00 gdm-session-worker [pam/gdm-password]
 8134 ?        Sl     0:00 gdm-session-worker [pam/gdm-fingerprint]
 8832 ?        Sl     0:00 gdm-session-worker [pam/gdm-password]

 9547 ?        Sl     0:00 gdm-session-worker [pam/gdm-fingerprint]
 9568 ?        Sl     0:00 gdm-session-worker [pam/gdm-password]
 9570 ?        Sl     0:00 gdm-session-worker [pam/gdm-fingerprint]
10081 ?        Sl     0:00 gdm-session-worker [pam/gdm-fingerprint]
10098 ?        Sl     0:00 gdm-session-worker [pam/gdm-password]
10100 ?        Sl     0:00 gdm-session-worker [pam/gdm-fingerprint]
10608 ?        Sl     0:00 gdm-session-worker [pam/gdm-password]
10609 ?        Sl     0:00 gdm-session-worker [pam/gdm-fingerprint]
[...]

I also tried with gdm3 3.17.90-1 from experimental but that doesn't
solve the problem.

Berto

Yes, I think this has been fixed upstream (although I'm not certain
when, and unfortunately the Red Hat bug doesn't indicate which specific
patches they backported). I can't reproduce #799197 in the Debian
stretch VM where I was testing a fix for #789118, but I could reproduce
it on a similarly-configured jessie VM.

#794316 appears to be a more serious symptom of essentially the same
thing as #799197: I can't reproduce escalating numbers of processes
with inotify handles on stretch.

Conservatively assuming the fixed version is the one I tested,
although in reality I expect it was sometime around 3.16 or 3.18.

    S
