7db65421d0 ps: for abnormal end allow core dumps (fix qualys bug)
A Qualys audit patch, represented in the commit below,
added the _exit() call to our abnormal signal handler.
Unfortunately, that disabled the associated core dump.

This patch restores expected behavior of those signals
whose default produces a core dump file + termination.

bb272580a6 docs: Update ps.1 to warn about command name length
Previous versions of ps used to only match on the first 15 characters
because that's what the kernel used to provide. Newer kernels have a
longer length for this field so procps has been updated to suit.

2e4a594221 ps/display.c: Always exit from signal_handler().
Right now, "we _exit() anyway" is not always true: for example, the
default action for SIGURG is to ignore the signal, which means that
"kill(getpid(), signo);" does not terminate the process. Call _exit()
explicitly, in this case (rather than exit(), because the terminating
kill() calls do not call the functions registered with atexit() either).

7dd7bdb09f ps/output.c: Always null-terminate outbuf in show_one_proc().
Before "strlen(outbuf)", if one of the pr_*() functions forgot to do it.
This prevents an out-of-bounds read in strlen(), and an out-of-bounds
write in "outbuf[sz] = '\n'". Another solution would be to replace
strlen() with strnlen(), but this is not used anywhere else in the
code-base and may not exist in all libc's.

db25d0375a ps/output.c: Protect outbuf in various pr_*() functions.
pr_bsdstart(): Replace "strcpy(outbuf," with "snprintf(outbuf, COLWID,"
(which is used in all surrounding functions). (side note: the fact that
many pr_*() functions simply return "snprintf(outbuf, COLWID," justifies
the "amount" checks added to show_one_proc() by the "ps/output.c:
Replace strcpy() with snprintf() in show_one_proc()." patch)

pr_stime(): Check the return value of strftime() (in case of an error,
"the contents of the array are undefined").

help_pr_sig(): Handle the "len < 8" case, otherwise "sig+len-8" may
point outside the sig string.

pr_context(): Handle the empty string case, or else "outbuf[len-1]"
points outside outbuf.

14e0247ea5 ps/output.c: Enforce a safe range for max_rightward.
Enforce a maximum max_rightward of OUTBUF_SIZE-1, because it is used in
constructs such as "snprintf(outbuf, max_rightward+1," (we could remove
the extra check at the beginning of forest_helper() now, but we decided
to leave it, as a precaution and reminder).

The minimum max_rightward check is not strictly needed, because it is
unsigned. However, we decided to add it anyway:

- most of the other variables are signed;

- make it visually clear that this case is properly handled;

- ideally, the minimum max_rightward should be 1, not 0 (to prevent
  integer overflows such as "max_rightward-1"), but this might change
  the behavior/output of ps, so we decided against it, for now.

Instead, we fixed the only function that overflows if max_rightward is
0. Also, enforce the same safe range for max_leftward, although it is
never used throughout the code-base.

Linux 4.2 provided a new process state of I which is used for an idle

62367defa2 ps: don't use '+' truncation indicator with multi-byte
The ps program generally supports multi-byte sequences
in strings representing user and group names. However,
should a multi-byte sequence span the maximum width of
a column, the '+' inserted by ps to signify truncation
will corrupt that sequence, misaligning the text line.

Unfortunately, there's insufficient info returned from
the escape_str function (who calls escape_str_utf8) to
provide a robust response. So, this commit will revert
to the old standby of displaying a number when the '+'
character would've corrupted that multi-byte sequence.

b2f49b105d Closes: #9 ps: Remove Unix98 output limitations
ps previously followed the Unix98 standard when it comes to
user-defined output, sometimes. This meant you could have
user output format with a header that included commas and
equals signs. It was dependent on if ps thought you wanted
sysv or bsd format and THAT was dependent on things in previous
options.

It was very confusing to a user because
 ps p $$ -o pid=,comm=
gave you a two-column output but
 ps -p $$ -o pid=,comm=
would give you a one column output with the header ",comm="

The -p versus p means (to ps) you want sysv or bsd parsing.
Unix98 standard or not, this is plainly just silly.

The commit removes any of the quirks Unix98 has with user defined
output.  If you really wanted a ps header with commas in the output,
today isn't your day.

caeebdc71f ps: exploit the simplified library interface for wchan
This patch was made necessary by those library changes
in support of recently revised/simplified wchan logic.

In addition, this commit eliminates a broken alternate
'namelist' provision which was intended to allow users
to specify a System.map file to be used in translating
addresses into function names. But, the real effect of
the now defunct 'N' and '-n' options was to indirectly
force addresses (not names) to be displayed since such
user named map files could not be successfully parsed.

Besides when the required FRAME_POINTER kconfig option
is absent there is no address to translate and when it
is present /proc/PID/wchan is already translated. Thus
an alternate mapping is unnecessary and inappropriate.

[ we'll forgive POSIX for documenting '-n  namelist' ]
