[Bug 1313042] Re: console-kit-daemon Glib-CRITICAL warning

 

I think I have given some hints on what source changes might be required
in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/consolekit/+bug/1313042/comments/7

I am not sure if these changes will ever be implemented in the package, because http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/ConsoleKit/ tells
"ConsoleKit is currently not actively maintained. The focus has shifted to the built-in seat/user/session management of Software/systemd called systemd-logind!"

(I do not have any knowledge what has to be done to replace consolekit
functionality by systemd-logind.)

Title:
  console-kit-daemon Glib-CRITICAL warning

Status in “consolekit” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The day I upgraded from 13.10 to 14.04 some of my ssh sessions into
  the new system (server side is Ubuntu 14.04) started hanging.

  The symptom is: I run some command with a lot of output (say a few
  hundreds of lines) in an ssh session, and the second the command
  completes, and the shell displays a new  prompt, the shell stops
  responding to keyboard input.

  At  the exact time of the hang (to the second) I always see these 3
  warnings in syslog:

  Apr 21 18:15:25 xx console-kit-daemon[3357]: GLib-CRITICAL: Source ID 469 was not found when attempting to remove it
  Apr 21 18:15:25 xx console-kit-daemon[3357]: GLib-CRITICAL: Source ID 86 was not found when attempting to remove it
  Apr 21 18:15:25 xx console-kit-daemon[3357]: GLib-CRITICAL: Source ID 86 was not found when attempting to remove it

  The Source ID numbers vary, but the warnings always come in triplets
  at the time of the hang.   I was able to reproduce this about 10 times
  today.  Every time the session hangs, these warnings appear in the log
  and vice versa: every time they appear in the log, I have a hanged
  remote session.

  A quote from an upstream (bugzilla.gnome.org) comment:

  https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=721369

      GLib recently started throwing a warning when g_source_remove()
      is passed garbage (as per warning). Your applications have probably been broken
      for a while, and there's no telling what could actually have happened in the
      past when g_source_remove() would happily close any random source because the
      programmer got the wrong argument to g_source_remove().

  So based on this I'm opening a bug against  consolekit for bad calls
  to g_source_remove() which seem to be related to the ssh hang.
