            Bug ID: 3323
           Summary: Add an addition message for explaining the exit
                    status.
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 7.6p1
          Hardware: 68k
                OS: OpenBSD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P4
         Component: sshd
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
          Reporter: yewenqi at cn.ibm.com

Usually we will open the debug mode to trace the connection and locate
the problem. When the server side is disconnect, client side will get a
message "debug1: Exit status -1". Some non-experienced users will be
misled by this message and think that the issue resides on the client
side.
Whether we can add an addition message for explaining the exit status
is from which side? Such as "debug1: Exit status 1 from remote server
hostname.xyz".
