miscellaneous: clean up trailing whitespace throughout The entire tree's polluted with inappropriate trailing whitespace. This commit rids our environment of all of those useless keystrokes. Unfortunately, it sure ain't a permanent solution and requires every contributor to instruct their editor(s) to prevent or eliminate them. Plus it's strongly recommended we all insert something like what's shown below to our '.gitconfig' file so as to provide at least some warnings when we try to apply any patches (git am) that do contain the #@!%& things!

library: normalize/standardize the i/f, <SLABINFO> api Before this major redesign, the slabs interface likely was our messiest 2nd generation attempt at opaqueness. Beyond the standard 'new', 'ref' & 'unref', there were a total of 12 exported functions. Now, there are four. The 1st step was to remove several of those functions. These were quick to go since they were not used (yet): . procps_slabnode_count . procps_slabnode_getname . procps_slabnode_getstack Then, the following were internalized so users needn't be burdened with implementation details in the future: . procps_slabinfo_read (renamed: read_slabinfo_failed) . procps_slabnode_stacks_alloc (renamed: stacks_alloc) Still others evolved into the minimal interface we had strived for in the other upgraded 3rd generation APIs: . procps_slabnode_get -----------> procps_slabinfo_get . separate stack_alloc/fill --> procps_slabinfo_select . separate stacks_alloc/fill ---> procps_slabinfo_reap . procps_slabnode_stacks_sort --> procps_slabinfo_sort ------------------------------------------------------ Beyond those reductions, the major modifications were: . This API tries to be as forgiving as possible and as such won't throw errors when a caller request makes no sense. For example, if a 'get' or 'select' requested a SLABNODE item (with no current means to id that node), results will be zero. By the same token, should 'reap' include a global SLABS item (meaning those values will be duplicated in *every* node stack) it'll be allowed. . If the above behavior is undesired, a new #define of ENFORCE_LOGICAL can be used to restrict certain items. . Permission problems will now be caught at 'new' time thanks to a priming 'read' call. That read also serves to make DELTA values potentially useful at 1st access. . Separate slab/slabnode enumerators were consolidated into one, simplifying validation & the results struct. .

library: revised sort + new allocate APIs for slabinfo With this patch, we will be close to an implementation which will be needed when accommodating tasks/threads. The following explanation was from an earlier message: The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. ------------------------------------------------------ So this patch expands the API to provide dynamic chain allocation plus allow sorting of those dynamic chains. While specific to slab needs (nodes, not global stats) it is not too early to begin to think of newlib chains as the opaque replacement for a deprecated old proc_t. Better yet, any newlib chain is inherently variable in length, something the old proc_t couldn't claim to be. Of course, as we get to PIDs we'll want to grow/shrink chains (easily accomplished with a special item enum). And we'll want to grow/shrink those **head arrays too. But these minor details don't seem insurmountable now. Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

It has now been rebased on top of some diskstat stuff to serve as a beginning. The original effort was perfectly serviceable (after a memory leak was fixed) but the approach would not have served future PID needs when that proc_t went bye bye. The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. So I wanted to try a different approach that seemed to hold potential for satisfying future top and ps needs. Subsequent commits will make that attempt, building on Craig's original patch whose commit msg appears below. ------------------------------------------------------ All of the /proc/slabinfo related calls have been changed here. They follow the same procps_slabinfo_* format. Made both the slabtop and vmstat programs use the new API as one was using the old one and one was just sort of trying to do its own thing.

library: slab is redesigned to use 'stack' vs. 'chain' In addition to that text shown below the line which is common to several commit messages, this patch contains several minor changes with lessor impact upon the API: . A 'read' was added to function procps_slabnode_count (but only when necessary, i.e. info->nodes_used == 0). . The #include header files are ordered alphabetically now, with all those <sys/??> types separately grouped. ------------------------------------------------------ . The former 'chains' have now become 'stacks' without the 'next' pointer in each result struct. The pointers initially seemed to offer some flexibility with memory allocations and benefits for the library access logic. However, user access was always via displacement and a a statically allocated chain was cumbersome to define. . An enumerator ending in '_noop' will no longer serve as a fencepost delimiter. Rather, it has become a much more important and flexible user oriented tool. Adding one or more such 'items' in any items list passed into the library becomes the means of extending the 'stack' to also include user (not just library) data. Any such data is guaranteed to never be altered by the library. . Anticipating PID support, where many different types must be represented in a result structure, we'll adopt a common naming standard. And, while not every results structure currently needs to reflect disparate types a union will be employed so the same dot qualifier ('.') can be used consistently when accessing all such data.

library: rebase & make current initial slabinfo effort This was Craig's original patch, referenced below, but it was never pushed to newlib. It has now been rebased on top of some diskstat stuff to serve as a beginning. The original effort was perfectly serviceable (after a memory leak was fixed) but the approach would not have served future PID needs when that proc_t went bye bye. The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. So I wanted to try a different approach that seemed to hold potential for satisfying future top and ps needs. Subsequent commits will make that attempt, building on Craig's original patch whose commit msg appears below. ------------------------------------------------------ All of the /proc/slabinfo related calls have been changed here. They follow the same procps_slabinfo_* format. Made both the slabtop and vmstat programs use the new API as one was using the old one and one was just sort of trying to do its own thing. Sorting of slabnodes is also possible via the library.

#define SLABINFO_FILE "/proc/slabinfo"
library: revised sort + new allocate APIs for slabinfo With this patch, we will be close to an implementation which will be needed when accommodating tasks/threads. The following explanation was from an earlier message: The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. ------------------------------------------------------ So this patch expands the API to provide dynamic chain allocation plus allow sorting of those dynamic chains. While specific to slab needs (nodes, not global stats) it is not too early to begin to think of newlib chains as the opaque replacement for a deprecated old proc_t. Better yet, any newlib chain is inherently variable in length, something the old proc_t couldn't claim to be. Of course, as we get to PIDs we'll want to grow/shrink chains (easily accomplished with a special item enum). And we'll want to grow/shrink those **head arrays too. But these minor details don't seem insurmountable now. Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

library: refactor exposed pointers management, 3rd gen This commit brings all of those 'fetch' type functions (supporting some form of 'reap') into closer alignment with one another. The biggest impact is to be found in the <stat> module, which now provides for the separate copy of stack pointers which will be exposed to users. The reason such a copy was not employed initially with <stat>, unlike those for <pids> and <slabinfo>, is due to the fact that such stacks were never sortable. Thus the original raw consolidated extent pointers wouldn't have been disturbed. But that meant no NULL delimiter. So with this commit, all reap/fetch operations now use pointer copies when returning results to callers. And, all such arrays are now NULL delimited meaning callers can choose their own access fencepost: totals or NULL. Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

library: normalize/standardize the i/f, <SLABINFO> api Before this major redesign, the slabs interface likely was our messiest 2nd generation attempt at opaqueness. Beyond the standard 'new', 'ref' & 'unref', there were a total of 12 exported functions. Now, there are four. The 1st step was to remove several of those functions. These were quick to go since they were not used (yet): . procps_slabnode_count . procps_slabnode_getname . procps_slabnode_getstack Then, the following were internalized so users needn't be burdened with implementation details in the future: . procps_slabinfo_read (renamed: read_slabinfo_failed) . procps_slabnode_stacks_alloc (renamed: stacks_alloc) Still others evolved into the minimal interface we had strived for in the other upgraded 3rd generation APIs: . procps_slabnode_get -----------> procps_slabinfo_get . separate stack_alloc/fill --> procps_slabinfo_select . separate stacks_alloc/fill ---> procps_slabinfo_reap . procps_slabnode_stacks_sort --> procps_slabinfo_sort ------------------------------------------------------ Beyond those reductions, the major modifications were: . This API tries to be as forgiving as possible and as such won't throw errors when a caller request makes no sense. For example, if a 'get' or 'select' requested a SLABNODE item (with no current means to id that node), results will be zero. By the same token, should 'reap' include a global SLABS item (meaning those values will be duplicated in *every* node stack) it'll be allowed. . If the above behavior is undesired, a new #define of ENFORCE_LOGICAL can be used to restrict certain items. . Permission problems will now be caught at 'new' time thanks to a priming 'read' call. That read also serves to make DELTA values potentially useful at 1st access. . Separate slab/slabnode enumerators were consolidated into one, simplifying validation & the results struct. . Several internal parameter checks were relaxed since they were already checked by the caller. Besides if we cannot trust our own code we might as well hang it up. . That sort provision was made more efficient and will offer the ascending choice, in addition to descending. ------------------------------------------------------ Lastly, some additional thoughts regarding the future: . It would not be difficult to expand 'select' to also accept a nodeid, or to clone it as 'select_node'. And, should the same be extended to 'get', a results struct could be returned instead of signed long accommodating the extra data type(s) like a node name (string data). .

The former 'chains' have now become 'stacks' without the 'next' pointer in each result struct. The pointers initially seemed to offer some flexibility with memory allocations and benefits for the library access logic. However, user access was always via displacement and a a statically allocated chain was cumbersome to define. . An enumerator ending in '_noop' will no longer serve as a fencepost delimiter. Rather, it has become a much more important and flexible user oriented tool. Adding one or more such 'items' in any items list passed into the library becomes the means of extending the 'stack' to also include user (not just library) data. Any such data is guaranteed to never be altered by the library. . Anticipating PID support, where many different types must be represented in a result structure, we'll adopt a common naming standard. And, while not every results structure currently needs to reflect disparate types a union will be employed so the same dot qualifier ('.') can be used consistently when accessing all such data.

library: rebase & make current initial slabinfo effort This was Craig's original patch, referenced below, but it was never pushed to newlib. It has now been rebased on top of some diskstat stuff to serve as a beginning. The original effort was perfectly serviceable (after a memory leak was fixed) but the approach would not have served future PID needs when that proc_t went bye bye. The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. So I wanted to try a different approach that seemed to hold potential for satisfying future top and ps needs. Subsequent commits will make that attempt, building on Craig's original patch whose commit msg appears below. ------------------------------------------------------ All of the /proc/slabinfo related calls have been changed here. They follow the same procps_slabinfo_* format. Made both the slabtop and vmstat programs use the new API as one was using the old one and one was just sort of trying to do its own thing. Sorting of slabnodes is also possible via the library.

library: standardize all the 'context' structure names This patch attempts to standardize the naming of those most important (declared not defined) context structs. The present practice represents a hodge podge of names only some of which reflect the source /proc file name. And 2 of those file names embed a literal 'info' which is likely the origin of that required parm identifier. Now we'll append a universal '_info' to such structure names, while including the names of those /proc pseudo files where possible. In any case, that context struct will *always* begin with the actual module/header file name.

library: <SLABINFO> api, change that 'get' return type The following commit message is shared with 4 patches. ------------------------------------------------------ Under the newlib interface most of our 'get' functions represent a bit of a compromise in that the actual raw values are coerced into one (probably ok) return type. That approach creates the possibility of truncation at best, and wouldn't serve future needs should something other than numeric data be added to the 'get' results. This commit trades the current compromise for a return value guaranteed to satisfy all future needs, namely a pointer to a particular api's specific results struct. The impact on existing programs is minimal, especially when using a new supplied macro. Otherwise, native 'C' syntax could be used, but may feel somewhat unnatural.

library: revised sort + new allocate APIs for slabinfo With this patch, we will be close to an implementation which will be needed when accommodating tasks/threads. The following explanation was from an earlier message: The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. ------------------------------------------------------ So this patch expands the API to provide dynamic chain allocation plus allow sorting of those dynamic chains. While specific to slab needs (nodes, not global stats) it is not too early to begin to think of newlib chains as the opaque replacement for a deprecated old proc_t. Better yet, any newlib chain is inherently variable in length, something the old proc_t couldn't claim to be. Of course, as we get to PIDs we'll want to grow/shrink chains (easily accomplished with a special item enum). And we'll want to grow/shrink those **head arrays too. But these minor details don't seem insurmountable now. Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

library: revised sort + new allocate APIs for slabinfo With this patch, we will be close to an implementation which will be needed when accommodating tasks/threads. The following explanation was from an earlier message: The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. ------------------------------------------------------ So this patch expands the API to provide dynamic chain allocation plus allow sorting of those dynamic chains. While specific to slab needs (nodes, not global stats) it is not too early to begin to think of newlib chains as the opaque replacement for a deprecated old proc_t. Better yet, any newlib chain is inherently variable in length, something the old proc_t couldn't claim to be. Of course, as we get to PIDs we'll want to grow/shrink chains (easily accomplished with a special item enum). And we'll want to grow/shrink those **head arrays too. But these minor details don't seem insurmountable now. Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

library: overcome effect of copy/paste, <SLABINFO> api Needless to say, when one copies and then pastes, it's always better when those results are refined somewhat. The qsort callback declarations used the wrong results type and 2 of their 3 input parameters were wrong too. So this patch will fix that & generalize declarations.

library: normalize/standardize the i/f, <SLABINFO> api Before this major redesign, the slabs interface likely was our messiest 2nd generation attempt at opaqueness. Beyond the standard 'new', 'ref' & 'unref', there were a total of 12 exported functions. Now, there are four. The 1st step was to remove several of those functions. These were quick to go since they were not used (yet): . procps_slabnode_count . procps_slabnode_getname . procps_slabnode_getstack Then, the following were internalized so users needn't be burdened with implementation details in the future: . procps_slabinfo_read (renamed: read_slabinfo_failed) . procps_slabnode_stacks_alloc (renamed: stacks_alloc) Still others evolved into the minimal interface we had strived for in the other upgraded 3rd generation APIs: . procps_slabnode_get -----------> procps_slabinfo_get . separate stack_alloc/fill --> procps_slabinfo_select . separate stacks_alloc/fill ---> procps_slabinfo_reap . procps_slabnode_stacks_sort --> procps_slabinfo_sort ------------------------------------------------------ Beyond those reductions, the major modifications were: . This API tries to be as forgiving as possible and as such won't throw errors when a caller request makes no sense. For example, if a 'get' or 'select' requested a SLABNODE item (with no current means to id that node), results will be zero. By the same token, should 'reap' include a global SLABS item (meaning those values will be duplicated in *every* node stack) it'll be allowed. . If the above behavior is undesired, a new #define of ENFORCE_LOGICAL can be used to restrict certain items. . Permission problems will now be caught at 'new' time thanks to a priming 'read' call. That read also serves to make DELTA values potentially useful at 1st access. . Separate slab/slabnode enumerators were consolidated into one, simplifying validation & the results struct. . Several internal parameter checks were relaxed since they were already checked by the caller. Besides if we cannot trust our own code we might as well hang it up. . That sort provision was made more efficient and will offer the ascending choice, in addition to descending. ------------------------------------------------------ Lastly, some additional thoughts regarding the future: . It would not be difficult to expand 'select' to also accept a nodeid, or to clone it as 'select_node'. And, should the same be extended to 'get', a results struct could be returned instead of signed long accommodating the extra data type(s) like a node name (string data). . The 'get' function is not currently affected by that define ENFORCE_LOGICAL. However, at some future point perhaps -EINVAL would be more appropriate than a zero.

library: rebase & make current initial slabinfo effort This was Craig's original patch, referenced below, but it was never pushed to newlib. It has now been rebased on top of some diskstat stuff to serve as a beginning. The original effort was perfectly serviceable (after a memory leak was fixed) but the approach would not have served future PID needs when that proc_t went bye bye. The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. So I wanted to try a different approach that seemed to hold potential for satisfying future top and ps needs.

library: revised sort + new allocate APIs for slabinfo With this patch, we will be close to an implementation which will be needed when accommodating tasks/threads. The following explanation was from an earlier message: The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. ------------------------------------------------------ So this patch expands the API to provide dynamic chain allocation plus allow sorting of those dynamic chains. While specific to slab needs (nodes, not global stats) it is not too early to begin to think of newlib chains as the opaque replacement for a deprecated old proc_t. Better yet, any newlib chain is inherently variable in length, something the old proc_t couldn't claim to be. Of course, as we get to PIDs we'll want to grow/shrink chains (easily accomplished with a special item enum). And we'll want to grow/shrink those **head arrays too. But these minor details don't seem insurmountable now. Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

The present practice represents a hodge podge of names only some of which reflect the source /proc file name. And 2 of those file names embed a literal 'info' which is likely the origin of that required parm identifier. Now we'll append a universal '_info' to such structure names, while including the names of those /proc pseudo files where possible. In any case, that context struct will *always* begin with the actual module/header file name.

library: slab is redesigned to use 'stack' vs. 'chain' In addition to that text shown below the line which is common to several commit messages, this patch contains several minor changes with lessor impact upon the API: . A 'read' was added to function procps_slabnode_count (but only when necessary, i.e. info->nodes_used == 0). . The #include header files are ordered alphabetically now, with all those <sys/??> types separately grouped. ------------------------------------------------------ . The former 'chains' have now become 'stacks' without the 'next' pointer in each result struct. The pointers initially seemed to offer some flexibility with memory allocations and benefits for the library access logic. However, user access was always via displacement and a a statically allocated chain was cumbersome to define. . An enumerator ending in '_noop' will no longer serve as a fencepost delimiter. Rather, it has become a much more important and flexible user oriented tool. Adding one or more such 'items' in any items list passed into the library becomes the means of extending the 'stack' to also include user (not just library) data. Any such data is guaranteed to never be altered by the library. . Anticipating PID support, where many different types must be represented in a result structure, we'll adopt a common naming standard. And, while not every results structure currently needs to reflect disparate types a union will be employed so the same dot qualifier ('.') can be used consistently when accessing all such data.

If the above behavior is undesired, a new #define of ENFORCE_LOGICAL can be used to restrict certain items. . Permission problems will now be caught at 'new' time thanks to a priming 'read' call. That read also serves to make DELTA values potentially useful at 1st access. . Separate slab/slabnode enumerators were consolidated into one, simplifying validation & the results struct. . Several internal parameter checks were relaxed since they were already checked by the caller. Besides if we cannot trust our own code we might as well hang it up. .

It would not be difficult to expand 'select' to also accept a nodeid, or to clone it as 'select_node'. And, should the same be extended to 'get', a results struct could be returned instead of signed long accommodating the extra data type(s) like a node name (string data). .

library: rebase & make current initial slabinfo effort This was Craig's original patch, referenced below, but it was never pushed to newlib.

The original effort was perfectly serviceable (after a memory leak was fixed) but the approach would not have served future PID needs when that proc_t went bye bye. The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided.

* Read the data out of /proc/slabinfo putting the information
library: slab is redesigned to use 'stack' vs. 'chain' In addition to that text shown below the line which is common to several commit messages, this patch contains several minor changes with lessor impact upon the API: . A 'read' was added to function procps_slabnode_count (but only when necessary, i.e. info->nodes_used == 0). . The #include header files are ordered alphabetically now, with all those <sys/??> types separately grouped. ------------------------------------------------------ . The former 'chains' have now become 'stacks' without the 'next' pointer in each result struct. The pointers initially seemed to offer some flexibility with memory allocations and benefits for the library access logic. However, user access was always via displacement and a a statically allocated chain was cumbersome to define. . An enumerator ending in '_noop' will no longer serve as a fencepost delimiter. Rather, it has become a much more important and flexible user oriented tool. Adding one or more such 'items' in any items list passed into the library becomes the means of extending the 'stack' to also include user (not just library) data. Any such data is guaranteed to never be altered by the library. . Anticipating PID support, where many different types must be represented in a result structure, we'll adopt a common naming standard. And, while not every results structure currently needs to reflect disparate types a union will be employed so the same dot qualifier ('.') can be used consistently when accessing all such data.

static int read_slabinfo_failed (
library: standardize all the 'context' structure names This patch attempts to standardize the naming of those most important (declared not defined) context structs. The present practice represents a hodge podge of names only some of which reflect the source /proc file name. And 2 of those file names embed a literal 'info' which is likely the origin of that required parm identifier. Now we'll append a universal '_info' to such structure names, while including the names of those /proc pseudo files where possible. In any case, that context struct will *always* begin with the actual module/header file name. And only the following two sound a little weird! ---------> 'meminfo_info' + 'slabinfo_info' <--------- Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

The original effort was perfectly serviceable (after a memory leak was fixed) but the approach would not have served future PID needs when that proc_t went bye bye. The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided.

One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. ------------------------------------------------------ So this patch expands the API to provide dynamic chain allocation plus allow sorting of those dynamic chains. While specific to slab needs (nodes, not global stats) it is not too early to begin to think of newlib chains as the opaque replacement for a deprecated old proc_t. Better yet, any newlib chain is inherently variable in length, something the old proc_t couldn't claim to be. Of course, as we get to PIDs we'll want to grow/shrink chains (easily accomplished with a special item enum). And we'll want to grow/shrink those **head arrays too.

library: normalize/standardize the i/f, <SLABINFO> api Before this major redesign, the slabs interface likely was our messiest 2nd generation attempt at opaqueness.

If the above behavior is undesired, a new #define of ENFORCE_LOGICAL can be used to restrict certain items. . Permission problems will now be caught at 'new' time thanks to a priming 'read' call. That read also serves to make DELTA values potentially useful at 1st access. . Separate slab/slabnode enumerators were consolidated into one, simplifying validation & the results struct. . Several internal parameter checks were relaxed since they were already checked by the caller. Besides if we cannot trust our own code we might as well hang it up. .

It would not be difficult to expand 'select' to also accept a nodeid, or to clone it as 'select_node'.

library: rebase & make current initial slabinfo effort This was Craig's original patch, referenced below, but it was never pushed to newlib. It has now been rebased on top of some diskstat stuff to serve as a beginning. The original effort was perfectly serviceable (after a memory leak was fixed) but the approach would not have served future PID needs when that proc_t went bye bye. The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. So I wanted to try a different approach that seemed to hold potential for satisfying future top and ps needs.

library: slab is redesigned to use 'stack' vs. 'chain' In addition to that text shown below the line which is common to several commit messages, this patch contains several minor changes with lessor impact upon the API: . A 'read' was added to function procps_slabnode_count (but only when necessary, i.e. info->nodes_used == 0). . The #include header files are ordered alphabetically now, with all those <sys/??> types separately grouped. ------------------------------------------------------ . The former 'chains' have now become 'stacks' without the 'next' pointer in each result struct. The pointers initially seemed to offer some flexibility with memory allocations and benefits for the library access logic. However, user access was always via displacement and a a statically allocated chain was cumbersome to define. . An enumerator ending in '_noop' will no longer serve as a fencepost delimiter. Rather, it has become a much more important and flexible user oriented tool. Adding one or more such 'items' in any items list passed into the library becomes the means of extending the 'stack' to also include user (not just library) data. Any such data is guaranteed to never be altered by the library. . Anticipating PID support, where many different types must be represented in a result structure, we'll adopt a common naming standard. And, while not every results structure currently needs to reflect disparate types a union will be employed so the same dot qualifier ('.') can be used consistently when accessing all such data.

Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. So I wanted to try a different approach that seemed to hold potential for satisfying future top and ps needs. Subsequent commits will make that attempt, building on Craig's original patch whose commit msg appears below. ------------------------------------------------------ All of the /proc/slabinfo related calls have been changed here. They follow the same procps_slabinfo_* format. Made both the slabtop and vmstat programs use the new API as one was using the old one and one was just sort of trying to do its own thing. Sorting of slabnodes is also possible via the library.

library: revised sort + new allocate APIs for slabinfo With this patch, we will be close to an implementation which will be needed when accommodating tasks/threads. The following explanation was from an earlier message: The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. ------------------------------------------------------ So this patch expands the API to provide dynamic chain allocation plus allow sorting of those dynamic chains. While specific to slab needs (nodes, not global stats) it is not too early to begin to think of newlib chains as the opaque replacement for a deprecated old proc_t. Better yet, any newlib chain is inherently variable in length, something the old proc_t couldn't claim to be. Of course, as we get to PIDs we'll want to grow/shrink chains (easily accomplished with a special item enum). And we'll want to grow/shrink those **head arrays too. But these minor details don't seem insurmountable now. Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

library: rebase & make current initial slabinfo effort This was Craig's original patch, referenced below, but it was never pushed to newlib. It has now been rebased on top of some diskstat stuff to serve as a beginning. The original effort was perfectly serviceable (after a memory leak was fixed) but the approach would not have served future PID needs when that proc_t went bye bye. The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. So I wanted to try a different approach that seemed to hold potential for satisfying future top and ps needs. Subsequent commits will make that attempt, building on Craig's original patch whose commit msg appears below. ------------------------------------------------------ All of the /proc/slabinfo related calls have been changed here. They follow the same procps_slabinfo_* format. Made both the slabtop and vmstat programs use the new API as one was using the old one and one was just sort of trying to do its own thing. Sorting of slabnodes is also possible via the library.

library: normalize/standardize the i/f, <SLABINFO> api Before this major redesign, the slabs interface likely was our messiest 2nd generation attempt at opaqueness.

If the above behavior is undesired, a new #define of ENFORCE_LOGICAL can be used to restrict certain items. . Permission problems will now be caught at 'new' time thanks to a priming 'read' call. That read also serves to make DELTA values potentially useful at 1st access. . Separate slab/slabnode enumerators were consolidated into one, simplifying validation & the results struct. .

library: slab is redesigned to use 'stack' vs. 'chain' In addition to that text shown below the line which is common to several commit messages, this patch contains several minor changes with lessor impact upon the API: . A 'read' was added to function procps_slabnode_count (but only when necessary, i.e. info->nodes_used == 0). . The #include header files are ordered alphabetically now, with all those <sys/??> types separately grouped. ------------------------------------------------------ . The former 'chains' have now become 'stacks' without the 'next' pointer in each result struct. The pointers initially seemed to offer some flexibility with memory allocations and benefits for the library access logic. However, user access was always via displacement and a a statically allocated chain was cumbersome to define. . An enumerator ending in '_noop' will no longer serve as a fencepost delimiter. Rather, it has become a much more important and flexible user oriented tool. Adding one or more such 'items' in any items list passed into the library becomes the means of extending the 'stack' to also include user (not just library) data. Any such data is guaranteed to never be altered by the library. . Anticipating PID support, where many different types must be represented in a result structure, we'll adopt a common naming standard. And, while not every results structure currently needs to reflect disparate types a union will be employed so the same dot qualifier ('.') can be used consistently when accessing all such data.

library: revised sort + new allocate APIs for slabinfo With this patch, we will be close to an implementation which will be needed when accommodating tasks/threads. The following explanation was from an earlier message: The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. ------------------------------------------------------ So this patch expands the API to provide dynamic chain allocation plus allow sorting of those dynamic chains. While specific to slab needs (nodes, not global stats) it is not too early to begin to think of newlib chains as the opaque replacement for a deprecated old proc_t. Better yet, any newlib chain is inherently variable in length, something the old proc_t couldn't claim to be.

library: rebase & make current initial slabinfo effort This was Craig's original patch, referenced below, but it was never pushed to newlib. It has now been rebased on top of some diskstat stuff to serve as a beginning. The original effort was perfectly serviceable (after a memory leak was fixed) but the approach would not have served future PID needs when that proc_t went bye bye. The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. So I wanted to try a different approach that seemed to hold potential for satisfying future top and ps needs. Subsequent commits will make that attempt, building on Craig's original patch whose commit msg appears below. ------------------------------------------------------ All of the /proc/slabinfo related calls have been changed here. They follow the same procps_slabinfo_* format. Made both the slabtop and vmstat programs use the new API as one was using the old one and one was just sort of trying to do its own thing. Sorting of slabnodes is also possible via the library.

library: revised sort + new allocate APIs for slabinfo With this patch, we will be close to an implementation which will be needed when accommodating tasks/threads. The following explanation was from an earlier message: The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. ------------------------------------------------------ So this patch expands the API to provide dynamic chain allocation plus allow sorting of those dynamic chains. While specific to slab needs (nodes, not global stats) it is not too early to begin to think of newlib chains as the opaque replacement for a deprecated old proc_t. Better yet, any newlib chain is inherently variable in length, something the old proc_t couldn't claim to be. Of course, as we get to PIDs we'll want to grow/shrink chains (easily accomplished with a special item enum). And we'll want to grow/shrink those **head arrays too. But these minor details don't seem insurmountable now. Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

library: slab is redesigned to use 'stack' vs. 'chain' In addition to that text shown below the line which is common to several commit messages, this patch contains several minor changes with lessor impact upon the API: . A 'read' was added to function procps_slabnode_count (but only when necessary, i.e. info->nodes_used == 0). . The #include header files are ordered alphabetically now, with all those <sys/??> types separately grouped. ------------------------------------------------------ . The former 'chains' have now become 'stacks' without the 'next' pointer in each result struct. The pointers initially seemed to offer some flexibility with memory allocations and benefits for the library access logic. However, user access was always via displacement and a a statically allocated chain was cumbersome to define. . An enumerator ending in '_noop' will no longer serve as a fencepost delimiter. Rather, it has become a much more important and flexible user oriented tool. Adding one or more such 'items' in any items list passed into the library becomes the means of extending the 'stack' to also include user (not just library) data. Any such data is guaranteed to never be altered by the library. . Anticipating PID support, where many different types must be represented in a result structure, we'll adopt a common naming standard. And, while not every results structure currently needs to reflect disparate types a union will be employed so the same dot qualifier ('.') can be used consistently when accessing all such data.

library: rebase & make current initial slabinfo effort This was Craig's original patch, referenced below, but it was never pushed to newlib. It has now been rebased on top of some diskstat stuff to serve as a beginning. The original effort was perfectly serviceable (after a memory leak was fixed) but the approach would not have served future PID needs when that proc_t went bye bye. The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. So I wanted to try a different approach that seemed to hold potential for satisfying future top and ps needs. Subsequent commits will make that attempt, building on Craig's original patch whose commit msg appears below. ------------------------------------------------------ All of the /proc/slabinfo related calls have been changed here. They follow the same procps_slabinfo_* format. Made both the slabtop and vmstat programs use the new API as one was using the old one and one was just sort of trying to do its own thing. Sorting of slabnodes is also possible via the library.

library: normalize/standardize the i/f, <SLABINFO> api Before this major redesign, the slabs interface likely was our messiest 2nd generation attempt at opaqueness. Beyond the standard 'new', 'ref' & 'unref', there were a total of 12 exported functions. Now, there are four. The 1st step was to remove several of those functions. These were quick to go since they were not used (yet): . procps_slabnode_count . procps_slabnode_getname . procps_slabnode_getstack Then, the following were internalized so users needn't be burdened with implementation details in the future: . procps_slabinfo_read (renamed: read_slabinfo_failed) . procps_slabnode_stacks_alloc (renamed: stacks_alloc) Still others evolved into the minimal interface we had strived for in the other upgraded 3rd generation APIs: . procps_slabnode_get -----------> procps_slabinfo_get . separate stack_alloc/fill --> procps_slabinfo_select . separate stacks_alloc/fill ---> procps_slabinfo_reap . procps_slabnode_stacks_sort --> procps_slabinfo_sort ------------------------------------------------------ Beyond those reductions, the major modifications were: . This API tries to be as forgiving as possible and as such won't throw errors when a caller request makes no sense. For example, if a 'get' or 'select' requested a SLABNODE item (with no current means to id that node), results will be zero. By the same token, should 'reap' include a global SLABS item (meaning those values will be duplicated in *every* node stack) it'll be allowed. . If the above behavior is undesired, a new #define of ENFORCE_LOGICAL can be used to restrict certain items. . Permission problems will now be caught at 'new' time thanks to a priming 'read' call. That read also serves to make DELTA values potentially useful at 1st access. . Separate slab/slabnode enumerators were consolidated into one, simplifying validation & the results struct. . Several internal parameter checks were relaxed since they were already checked by the caller. Besides if we cannot trust our own code we might as well hang it up. . That sort provision was made more efficient and will offer the ascending choice, in addition to descending. ------------------------------------------------------ Lastly, some additional thoughts regarding the future: . It would not be difficult to expand 'select' to also accept a nodeid, or to clone it as 'select_node'.

library: final tweaks to code and/or comments, 3rd gen With the dust now settling on all those 3rd generation upgrades, this patch tries to provide some consistency among the separate modules involved.

Following is a summary of significant changes (if any) to each of these now upgraded 3rd gen library modules. <meminfo> ............................................ . strictly formatting/comment changes, code unaffected <pids> ............................................... . replaced a local mkSTR macro with existing STRINGIFY . added fetch narrative explaining duplicate addresses <slabinfo> ........................................... . rearranged some free logic for procps_slabinfo_unref . added fetch narrative explaining duplicate addresses <stat> ............................................... . added #define ENFORCE_LOGICAL, just as in <slabinfo> . replaced a local mkSTR macro with existing STRINGIFY . alphabetized the function declarations in the header <vmstat> ............................................. . made one coverity concession with read_vmstat_failed [ several of these changes may reflect this author's ] [ continuing pursuit of an unreasonable goal -- that ] [ of a 'perfect' (plus 'pretty') C language program! ] Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

library: refactor exposed pointers management, 3rd gen This commit brings all of those 'fetch' type functions (supporting some form of 'reap') into closer alignment with one another. The biggest impact is to be found in the <stat> module, which now provides for the separate copy of stack pointers which will be exposed to users. The reason such a copy was not employed initially with <stat>, unlike those for <pids> and <slabinfo>, is due to the fact that such stacks were never sortable. Thus the original raw consolidated extent pointers wouldn't have been disturbed. But that meant no NULL delimiter. So with this commit, all reap/fetch operations now use pointer copies when returning results to callers. And, all such arrays are now NULL delimited meaning callers can choose their own access fencepost: totals or NULL. Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

The following explanation was from an earlier message: The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. ------------------------------------------------------ So this patch expands the API to provide dynamic chain allocation plus allow sorting of those dynamic chains. While specific to slab needs (nodes, not global stats) it is not too early to begin to think of newlib chains as the opaque replacement for a deprecated old proc_t. Better yet, any newlib chain is inherently variable in length, something the old proc_t couldn't claim to be. Of course, as we get to PIDs we'll want to grow/shrink chains (easily accomplished with a special item enum). And we'll want to grow/shrink those **head arrays too.

struct slabinfo_info **info)
library: rebase & make current initial slabinfo effort This was Craig's original patch, referenced below, but it was never pushed to newlib. It has now been rebased on top of some diskstat stuff to serve as a beginning. The original effort was perfectly serviceable (after a memory leak was fixed) but the approach would not have served future PID needs when that proc_t went bye bye. The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. So I wanted to try a different approach that seemed to hold potential for satisfying future top and ps needs. Subsequent commits will make that attempt, building on Craig's original patch whose commit msg appears below. ------------------------------------------------------ All of the /proc/slabinfo related calls have been changed here. They follow the same procps_slabinfo_* format. Made both the slabtop and vmstat programs use the new API as one was using the old one and one was just sort of trying to do its own thing. Sorting of slabnodes is also possible via the library.

int rc;
library: slab is redesigned to use 'stack' vs. 'chain' In addition to that text shown below the line which is common to several commit messages, this patch contains several minor changes with lessor impact upon the API: . A 'read' was added to function procps_slabnode_count (but only when necessary, i.e. info->nodes_used == 0). . The #include header files are ordered alphabetically now, with all those <sys/??> types separately grouped. ------------------------------------------------------ . The former 'chains' have now become 'stacks' without the 'next' pointer in each result struct. The pointers initially seemed to offer some flexibility with memory allocations and benefits for the library access logic. However, user access was always via displacement and a a statically allocated chain was cumbersome to define. . An enumerator ending in '_noop' will no longer serve as a fencepost delimiter. Rather, it has become a much more important and flexible user oriented tool. Adding one or more such 'items' in any items list passed into the library becomes the means of extending the 'stack' to also include user (not just library) data. Any such data is guaranteed to never be altered by the library. . Anticipating PID support, where many different types must be represented in a result structure, we'll adopt a common naming standard. And, while not every results structure currently needs to reflect disparate types a union will be employed so the same dot qualifier ('.') can be used consistently when accessing all such data.

library: revised sort + new allocate APIs for slabinfo With this patch, we will be close to an implementation which will be needed when accommodating tasks/threads.

struct slabinfo_info **info)
library: rebase & make current initial slabinfo effort This was Craig's original patch, referenced below, but it was never pushed to newlib. It has now been rebased on top of some diskstat stuff to serve as a beginning. The original effort was perfectly serviceable (after a memory leak was fixed) but the approach would not have served future PID needs when that proc_t went bye bye. The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. So I wanted to try a different approach that seemed to hold potential for satisfying future top and ps needs. Subsequent commits will make that attempt, building on Craig's original patch whose commit msg appears below. ------------------------------------------------------ All of the /proc/slabinfo related calls have been changed here. They follow the same procps_slabinfo_* format. Made both the slabtop and vmstat programs use the new API as one was using the old one and one was just sort of trying to do its own thing. Sorting of slabnodes is also possible via the library.

One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. ------------------------------------------------------ So this patch expands the API to provide dynamic chain allocation plus allow sorting of those dynamic chains. While specific to slab needs (nodes, not global stats) it is not too early to begin to think of newlib chains as the opaque replacement for a deprecated old proc_t. Better yet, any newlib chain is inherently variable in length, something the old proc_t couldn't claim to be.

enum slabinfo_item item)
library: slab is redesigned to use 'stack' vs. 'chain' In addition to that text shown below the line which is common to several commit messages, this patch contains several minor changes with lessor impact upon the API: . A 'read' was added to function procps_slabnode_count (but only when necessary, i.e. info->nodes_used == 0). . The #include header files are ordered alphabetically now, with all those <sys/??> types separately grouped. ------------------------------------------------------ . The former 'chains' have now become 'stacks' without the 'next' pointer in each result struct. The pointers initially seemed to offer some flexibility with memory allocations and benefits for the library access logic. However, user access was always via displacement and a a statically allocated chain was cumbersome to define. . An enumerator ending in '_noop' will no longer serve as a fencepost delimiter. Rather, it has become a much more important and flexible user oriented tool. Adding one or more such 'items' in any items list passed into the library becomes the means of extending the 'stack' to also include user (not just library) data. Any such data is guaranteed to never be altered by the library. . Anticipating PID support, where many different types must be represented in a result structure, we'll adopt a common naming standard. And, while not every results structure currently needs to reflect disparate types a union will be employed so the same dot qualifier ('.') can be used consistently when accessing all such data.

library: slab is redesigned to use 'stack' vs. 'chain' In addition to that text shown below the line which is common to several commit messages, this patch contains several minor changes with lessor impact upon the API: . A 'read' was added to function procps_slabnode_count (but only when necessary, i.e. info->nodes_used == 0). . The #include header files are ordered alphabetically now, with all those <sys/??> types separately grouped. ------------------------------------------------------ . The former 'chains' have now become 'stacks' without the 'next' pointer in each result struct. The pointers initially seemed to offer some flexibility with memory allocations and benefits for the library access logic. However, user access was always via displacement and a a statically allocated chain was cumbersome to define. . An enumerator ending in '_noop' will no longer serve as a fencepost delimiter. Rather, it has become a much more important and flexible user oriented tool. Adding one or more such 'items' in any items list passed into the library becomes the means of extending the 'stack' to also include user (not just library) data. Any such data is guaranteed to never be altered by the library. . Anticipating PID support, where many different types must be represented in a result structure, we'll adopt a common naming standard. And, while not every results structure currently needs to reflect disparate types a union will be employed so the same dot qualifier ('.') can be used consistently when accessing all such data.

And 2 of those file names embed a literal 'info' which is likely the origin of that required parm identifier. Now we'll append a universal '_info' to such structure names, while including the names of those /proc pseudo files where possible. In any case, that context struct will *always* begin with the actual module/header file name. And only the following two sound a little weird! ---------> 'meminfo_info' + 'slabinfo_info' <--------- Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

library: normalize/standardize the i/f, <SLABINFO> api Before this major redesign, the slabs interface likely was our messiest 2nd generation attempt at opaqueness. Beyond the standard 'new', 'ref' & 'unref', there were a total of 12 exported functions. Now, there are four. The 1st step was to remove several of those functions. These were quick to go since they were not used (yet): . procps_slabnode_count . procps_slabnode_getname . procps_slabnode_getstack Then, the following were internalized so users needn't be burdened with implementation details in the future: . procps_slabinfo_read (renamed: read_slabinfo_failed) . procps_slabnode_stacks_alloc (renamed: stacks_alloc) Still others evolved into the minimal interface we had strived for in the other upgraded 3rd generation APIs: . procps_slabnode_get -----------> procps_slabinfo_get . separate stack_alloc/fill --> procps_slabinfo_select . separate stacks_alloc/fill ---> procps_slabinfo_reap . procps_slabnode_stacks_sort --> procps_slabinfo_sort ------------------------------------------------------ Beyond those reductions, the major modifications were: . This API tries to be as forgiving as possible and as such won't throw errors when a caller request makes no sense. For example, if a 'get' or 'select' requested a SLABNODE item (with no current means to id that node), results will be zero. By the same token, should 'reap' include a global SLABS item (meaning those values will be duplicated in *every* node stack) it'll be allowed. . If the above behavior is undesired, a new #define of ENFORCE_LOGICAL can be used to restrict certain items. . Permission problems will now be caught at 'new' time thanks to a priming 'read' call. That read also serves to make DELTA values potentially useful at 1st access. . Separate slab/slabnode enumerators were consolidated into one, simplifying validation & the results struct. . Several internal parameter checks were relaxed since they were already checked by the caller. Besides if we cannot trust our own code we might as well hang it up. . That sort provision was made more efficient and will offer the ascending choice, in addition to descending. ------------------------------------------------------ Lastly, some additional thoughts regarding the future: . It would not be difficult to expand 'select' to also accept a nodeid, or to clone it as 'select_node'. And, should the same be extended to 'get', a results struct could be returned instead of signed long accommodating the extra data type(s) like a node name (string data). . The 'get' function is not currently affected by that define ENFORCE_LOGICAL. However, at some future point perhaps -EINVAL would be more appropriate than a zero.

int numitems)
library: rebase & make current initial slabinfo effort This was Craig's original patch, referenced below, but it was never pushed to newlib. It has now been rebased on top of some diskstat stuff to serve as a beginning. The original effort was perfectly serviceable (after a memory leak was fixed) but the approach would not have served future PID needs when that proc_t went bye bye. The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. So I wanted to try a different approach that seemed to hold potential for satisfying future top and ps needs. Subsequent commits will make that attempt, building on Craig's original patch whose commit msg appears below. ------------------------------------------------------ All of the /proc/slabinfo related calls have been changed here. They follow the same procps_slabinfo_* format. Made both the slabtop and vmstat programs use the new API as one was using the old one and one was just sort of trying to do its own thing. Sorting of slabnodes is also possible via the library.

library: standardize all the 'context' structure names This patch attempts to standardize the naming of those most important (declared not defined) context structs. The present practice represents a hodge podge of names only some of which reflect the source /proc file name. And 2 of those file names embed a literal 'info' which is likely the origin of that required parm identifier. Now we'll append a universal '_info' to such structure names, while including the names of those /proc pseudo files where possible. In any case, that context struct will *always* begin with the actual module/header file name.

* procps_slabinfo_sort():
library: rebase & make current initial slabinfo effort This was Craig's original patch, referenced below, but it was never pushed to newlib. It has now been rebased on top of some diskstat stuff to serve as a beginning. The original effort was perfectly serviceable (after a memory leak was fixed) but the approach would not have served future PID needs when that proc_t went bye bye. The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. So I wanted to try a different approach that seemed to hold potential for satisfying future top and ps needs. Subsequent commits will make that attempt, building on Craig's original patch whose commit msg appears below. ------------------------------------------------------ All of the /proc/slabinfo related calls have been changed here. They follow the same procps_slabinfo_* format. Made both the slabtop and vmstat programs use the new API as one was using the old one and one was just sort of trying to do its own thing. Sorting of slabnodes is also possible via the library.

library: revised sort + new allocate APIs for slabinfo With this patch, we will be close to an implementation which will be needed when accommodating tasks/threads. The following explanation was from an earlier message: The slabtop requirements are similar to those of PIDs. One must accommodate the variable number of slab nodes (PIDs) while also accepting different data (char * and unsigned long). Furthermore, some generalized means to sort all that acquired stuff must somehow be provided. ------------------------------------------------------ So this patch expands the API to provide dynamic chain allocation plus allow sorting of those dynamic chains. While specific to slab needs (nodes, not global stats) it is not too early to begin to think of newlib chains as the opaque replacement for a deprecated old proc_t. Better yet, any newlib chain is inherently variable in length, something the old proc_t couldn't claim to be. Of course, as we get to PIDs we'll want to grow/shrink chains (easily accomplished with a special item enum). And we'll want to grow/shrink those **head arrays too. But these minor details don't seem insurmountable now. Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

Adding one or more such 'items' in any items list passed into the library becomes the means of extending the 'stack' to also include user (not just library) data. Any such data is guaranteed to never be altered by the library. . Anticipating PID support, where many different types must be represented in a result structure, we'll adopt a common naming standard.

library: standardize all the 'context' structure names This patch attempts to standardize the naming of those most important (declared not defined) context structs. The present practice represents a hodge podge of names only some of which reflect the source /proc file name.

Now we'll append a universal '_info' to such structure names, while including the names of those /proc pseudo files where possible.

library: slab is redesigned to use 'stack' vs. 'chain' In addition to that text shown below the line which is common to several commit messages, this patch contains several minor changes with lessor impact upon the API: . A 'read' was added to function procps_slabnode_count (but only when necessary, i.e. info->nodes_used == 0). . The #include header files are ordered alphabetically now, with all those <sys/??> types separately grouped. ------------------------------------------------------ . The former 'chains' have now become 'stacks' without the 'next' pointer in each result struct. The pointers initially seemed to offer some flexibility with memory allocations and benefits for the library access logic. However, user access was always via displacement and a a statically allocated chain was cumbersome to define. . An enumerator ending in '_noop' will no longer serve as a fencepost delimiter. Rather, it has become a much more important and flexible user oriented tool. Adding one or more such 'items' in any items list passed into the library becomes the means of extending the 'stack' to also include user (not just library) data. Any such data is guaranteed to never be altered by the library. . Anticipating PID support, where many different types must be represented in a result structure, we'll adopt a common naming standard. And, while not every results structure currently needs to reflect disparate types a union will be employed so the same dot qualifier ('.') can be used consistently when accessing all such data.

library: normalize/standardize the i/f, <SLABINFO> api Before this major redesign, the slabs interface likely was our messiest 2nd generation attempt at opaqueness. Beyond the standard 'new', 'ref' & 'unref', there were a total of 12 exported functions. Now, there are four. The 1st step was to remove several of those functions. These were quick to go since they were not used (yet): . procps_slabnode_count . procps_slabnode_getname . procps_slabnode_getstack Then, the following were internalized so users needn't be burdened with implementation details in the future: . procps_slabinfo_read (renamed: read_slabinfo_failed) . procps_slabnode_stacks_alloc (renamed: stacks_alloc) Still others evolved into the minimal interface we had strived for in the other upgraded 3rd generation APIs: . procps_slabnode_get -----------> procps_slabinfo_get . separate stack_alloc/fill --> procps_slabinfo_select . separate stacks_alloc/fill ---> procps_slabinfo_reap . procps_slabnode_stacks_sort --> procps_slabinfo_sort ------------------------------------------------------ Beyond those reductions, the major modifications were: . This API tries to be as forgiving as possible and as such won't throw errors when a caller request makes no sense. For example, if a 'get' or 'select' requested a SLABNODE item (with no current means to id that node), results will be zero. By the same token, should 'reap' include a global SLABS item (meaning those values will be duplicated in *every* node stack) it'll be allowed. . If the above behavior is undesired, a new #define of ENFORCE_LOGICAL can be used to restrict certain items. . Permission problems will now be caught at 'new' time thanks to a priming 'read' call. That read also serves to make DELTA values potentially useful at 1st access. . Separate slab/slabnode enumerators were consolidated into one, simplifying validation & the results struct. . Several internal parameter checks were relaxed since they were already checked by the caller. Besides if we cannot trust our own code we might as well hang it up. . That sort provision was made more efficient and will offer the ascending choice, in addition to descending. ------------------------------------------------------ Lastly, some additional thoughts regarding the future: . It would not be difficult to expand 'select' to also accept a nodeid, or to clone it as 'select_node'. And, should the same be extended to 'get', a results struct could be returned instead of signed long accommodating the extra data type(s) like a node name (string data). . The 'get' function is not currently affected by that define ENFORCE_LOGICAL. However, at some future point perhaps -EINVAL would be more appropriate than a zero.
