My logs are filled with a "Bluetooth ... unknown connection handle..." entry, what might be wrong?
by SirSkorpan from LinuxQuestions.org on (#51HAZ)
The first sign was a crash of my terminal and this message when ever I try to, for example list the content of a directory:
Code:bash: cannot create temp file for here-document: No space left on deviceand
Code:df -hshows that my root file system is 100% full. After some searching I find that these three files:
Code:
/var/log/kern.log
/var/log/syslog
/var/log/syslog.1are 8.1+4.1+4.1=16.3G and have been filled by the following line for the last 2 days:

Mar 31 15:59:46 ubuntu kernel: [182643.085526] Bluetooth: hci0: SCO packet for unknown connection handle 0(over 99.99% of the lines in all files consists of this line)
I realize that it has something to do with the Bluetooth, but I'm at a loss as to what specific about the bluetooth is failing. I have my bluetooth head set connected almost all day but it seems to be working fine. Both input and output.
I use bluetoothctl to connect to my headset and pavucontrol to switch between headset mode (HSP/HFP) and hifi mode (A2DP sink). Other than that I don't interact or manage bluetooth. Don't have any other devices connected either.
My system is a fairly standard Ubuntu 18.04 installation, as far as I know I haven't installed or changed any advanced settings for bluetooth.
I guess these are the questions:
how do I find out what the log entry means?
how do I solve it so it doesn't appear?
Is there a way to limit the logs to a maximum size?
