The file descriptor that is placed as a parameter to the NewConnection
callback does not close the connection when it is called with the OS's
close. This is using Bluez 5.47 on Linux.
Bluetoothctl still shows the connection as being up, as does the remote.
What method should one use to close the connection?
I am using Python and GObject Introspection.
Before connection:
rw.py 3983 root 0u CHR 136,3 0t0 6 /dev/pts/3

Yep, shutdown must be used since bluetoothd keeps a reference in case
it has to disconnect and to keep track of the service state. We should
perhaps document that we expect the user application to shutdown the
fd in case it want it to be disconnected.

I think you need to shutdown() socket.

What is holding the connection open is bluetoothd.
After closing the file descriptor for RFCOMM, there are two file
descriptors in the Bluetooth daemon that are left:
bluetooth 1406 root 18u sock 0,7 0t0 26587 protocol: RFCOMM
bluetooth 1406 root 19u sock 0,7 0t0 26602 protocol: RFCOMM
By terminating the application these go away, but what if I wish to
keep the daemon running? How do I tell the Bluetooth daemon to close
the RFCOMM sockets?
