Uri,
The main and display channels have no problem because they have ping logic in them. However, other channels such as input and playback channels don't have it, so they become stuck if idle time is longer than firewall timeout.
Adding keepalive timeout is a workaround and a quick fix for this, and I think we need ping logic and your patch for all of the channels in the long run.
David, Frediano, and Christophoe,
Thank you for the comments. As you suggested, I'll modify the patch and resubmit it.
Sunny

Hi,
With firewall running between spice server and client, if idle time is
larger than firewall session timeout, spice sessions freeze and users
lose their keyboard and mouse control.
Hi,
The server already monitors client connectivity.

Can you try setting CLIENT_CONNECTIVITY_TIMEOUT to a lower value ?
(BTW, 1800 seconds is exactly 30 minutes)

Uri.
To workaround this issue, I made a patch to add tcp keepalive timeout to
spice server. The timeout can be added to qemu config like below.
<domain type='kvm'
xmlns:qemu='http://libvirt.org/schemas/domain/qemu/1.0'>
<qemu:commandline>
<qemu:env name='SPICE_KEEPALIVE_TIMEOUT' value='1800'/>
</qemu:commandline>
I wanted to add this option to spice client, but there was no
setsockopt() option of TCP_KEEPIDLE for windows platform, So, I ended up
adding it to spice server. Please review the patch and let me know what
you think. Thank you.
