                          When a terminal is disconnected, the OS kernel sends SIGHUP to the controlling process of the terminal.

When a terminal emulator terminates, who sends SIGHUP to the controlling process of the pseudoterminal underlying the terminal emulator: the OS kernel or the terminal emulator?

Thanks.
