Packet Tunnel seems to freeze.

We see an issue where it seems like the Network Extension process freezes.

We have logging implemented in our PacketTunnel. When a user goes to sleep and sets their device down. Occasionally when they wake up the packettunnel process no longer seems to be running.

The last log lines seem to always occur sometime past midnight. We do log on device sleep and wake but those log lines do not seem to occur any longer.

Does anyone have experience with such an issue?

Interestingly, after more investigation it seems that this occurs after a jetsam event. We don't see this happening on every device, mostly iOS 16+ devices. This did not happen prior. We suspect that there might be an issue unrelated to our process.

it seems that this occurs after a jetsam event.

Is that creating a jetsam report. See Locate crash reports and memory logs on the device.
