I am experiencing an odd problem with PAN networking. I have PAN

This repeats periodically. This works just fine, except after a while,
the BNEP connection fails with the following in the log.

ls /proc/`pidof bluetoothd`/fd shows about 1000 open file descriptors
(sockets mostly). This looks like some kind of resource (file
descriptor) leak.
Has anyone experienced this before? I don't know if it is in the
bluetoothd application or one if the libraries (glib2, dbus) it links
with. Happens with bluez 5.19 and 5.52.
That looks like the fd are not released (via close) after they are
attached to the bridge, you could in theory increase the number of fd
a process can have in the meantime but we will need to fix this
problem at some point so please have a issue created in github:
https://github.com/bluez/bluez/
Using strace attached to bluetoothd during a BNEP disconnect/reconnect
sequence, it looks like the socket that the previous BNEP connection was
accepted on is not closed. bluetoothd accepts the new connection on a
new socket (fd count goes up by one) but never closes the previous
connection socket. This is unrelated to the bridge. That just happens
to be the first function that tries to create a socket after the fd
limit is reached.
Increasing the fd limits for the process is not an option (It will
eventually fail). This is on a resource limited embedded system.
