Public bug reported:
Dolphin was left open overnight being connected via
sftp://user@host:port/folder/path.
(Two targets, one continuously reachable under host:port, one went offline
during the night)
Returning to the PC I found 4 sftp.so processes consuming 50% of a CPU core
each.
They continued to do so after the folders in Dolphin were closed, and even
after Dolphin itself was closed.
They responded to SIGTERM.
This is strace output from 1 of the processes, the same which apport was
used on:
ppoll([{fd=4, events=POLLIN}], 1, {tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=1000000}, NULL, 8) = 0
(Timeout)
write(3, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 8) = 8
ppoll([{fd=4, events=POLLIN}], 1, {tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=1000000}, NULL, 8) = 0
(Timeout)
write(3, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 8) = 8
ppoll([{fd=4, events=POLLIN}], 1, {tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=1000000}, NULL, 8) = 0
(Timeout)
write(3, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 8) = 8
ppoll([{fd=4, events=POLLIN}], 1, {tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=1000000}, NULL, 8) = 0
(Timeout)
write(3, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 8) = 8
ppoll([{fd=4, events=POLLIN}], 1, {tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=1000000}, NULL, 8) = 0
(Timeout)
write(3, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 8) = 8
(continues to repeat, seems like its stuck in a loop)
Kubuntu 18.04 Beta 2, kde-runtime (4:17.08.3-0ubuntu1)
What I expected to happen:
No high CPU usage, maybe no sftp.so process at all as the conenction was idle.
What happened instead:
4 sftp.so processes using 200% CPU of my quad core, consuming energy and
shortening the lifespan of my system.
Feel free to contact me with questions, I can try to reproduces the problem.
Also I will leave one of the processes suspended for 1-3 days after filing this
report, so I can send a SIGCONT and give further information on it if requested.
