fd77d86942 top: add and/or expand a couple more translation hints
After noticing that the 'uk' translation expanded what
was supposed to be a 3 line header into 5 lines, seems
appropriate to offer more guidance on max lines count.

0154ffb280 top: ensured one translation hint agrees with template
Now that top can properly handle translated multi-byte
strings I've been reviewing translated efforts so far,
and weighing output against related translation hints.

In one case, a translation hint has not kept pace with
the current program state. In addition, that same hint
could be expanded to suggest translation alternatives.

[ frankly I never expected the translators to tackle ]
[ some of those 'special' strings. the task appeared ]
[ just too daunting. but they have done a great job! ]

1bc25e920a top: correct an insidious occasional truncation buglet
With the help of our Swedish translator, hopefully the
final buglet has now been vanquished in the multi-byte
translation support. This one was a real nasty bugger.

Although it didn't occur with every terminal emulator,
occasionally random text lines were being chopped off.

As it turns out, those terminals were blameless. There
were two separate places in top's show_special routine
where potential multi-byte sequences were inadequately
addressed. Solution: exploit existing utf-8 functions.

[ it also became apparent that the translation hints ]
[ in the top_nls module were deficient. so a special ]
[ caution was added regarding the final line of txt. ]

5e708c5db7 top: provide -1 command line switch as 'Cpu(s)' toggle
If built without ./configure --disable-modern-top, the
program displays each cpu individually providing there
is sufficient vertical screen real estate. For massive
SMP environments this will necessitate use of a config
file where the cpu summary toggle ('1') could be saved
via the 'W' command. But, an rcfile may not be viable.

So this commit introduces a '1' command line switch to
emulate exactly the effects of the interactive toggle.

And since it is our first numeric switch some existing
parsing logic had to be changed slightly. Such changes
are, in truth, an improvement. For example, instead of
seeing "inappropriate '2'" with ./top -2 we'll now see
the vastly more appropriate error "unknown option '2'.

b2bd65407a top: provide -E command line switch for memory scaling
In their 3.2.7 version of top, Redhat introduced an -M
switch to automatically scale Summary Area memory data
to avoid truncation (and the resulting '+' indicator).

The procps-ng top does not employ suffixes with memory
data nor does it allow for different scaling with each
separate value. Rather, scaling appears at line start.

If built without ./configure --disable-modern-top, the
Summary Area memory will be scaled at GiB which should
lessen chance of truncation. Otherwise KiB was used to
reflect such memory, increasing the truncation chance.

And while 'W' can be used to preserve some appropriate
scaling value, there are arguments against such rcfile
approaches as cited in the issue and bug report below.

So this commit will bump the Summary Area memory scale
factor from KiB to MiB when using --disable-modern-top
as a concession to that Redhat bug report noted below.

And it also introduces a new command line switch which
can force any desired scaling regardless of the rcfile
or which ./configure option might have been specified.

[ for top's help text we'll show 'E' as if it were a ]
[ switch without arguments in order to keep the help ]
[ text displayable without wrap in an 80x24 terminal ]

[ the man page, however, will show all k-e arguments ]

b09014a7b6 top: share the rcfile between master & newlib branches
Since the decision was made to also add that Linux-4.5
support (was only in this newlib branch) to our master
branch, a tweak to newlib's top is necessary. In order
to share the rcfile between them, any fields unique to
a branch must appear last in it's list of enumerators.

And the troublesome field in question above is CGNAME.

It doesn't matter if a unique field is on or off, only
that it, as a higher enum/char, appear after all other
shared fields. Otherwise one risks the 'corrupt' error
message from the top without that field or the display
of the wrong column in the top with that unique field.

[ and strictly speaking, the changes under top_nls.c ]
[ were technically not really necessary. however, we ]
[ choose to maintain strict ordering via enum value. ]

9830fdf0ae top: tweak newlib interface, as more experience gained
Now that the dust is settling following an initial API
library effort, it is apparent my naming standards may
not have always been observed. This was a minor crime,
since those standards are unwritten (& not apparent?).

Basically, top has always capitalized the first letter
of global variables in an effort to distinguish global
definitions from local variables later in the program.

So this patch alters the new API variables to conform,
while also explicitly using 'context' for key structs.

Lastly, top now employs the new '#include <proc/name>'
conventions for the new/converted module header files.

8ded6c5739 top: exploit the new library API for cpu display needs
This commit is mostly about eliminating code, now that
a library is responsible for the cpu tics maintenance.

The top program will continue to provide numa support,
without involving the library in any of those details.
[ not to mention all the 'dl' and 'stderr' numa crap ]

With this transfer of the cpu tics duty to our library
the provision associated with the CPU_ZEROTICS #define
could not initially be migrated. The commit referenced
below suggests it may have lost its importance. In any
case such logic may yet be incorporated in the future.
But for now, that #define has been completely removed.

c3fd7473c5 top: exploit the new library API for memory statistics
This commit represents the pioneering attempt at using
the concept of 'chained' library requests in an effort
to reduce function call overhead. It required exposing
no more implementation details than were already shown
through the individual calls, yet is satisfied in one.

It is just such an approach that will prove invaluable
when it comes time to access individual /proc/##/data.
Programs could 'chain' only those 'results' structures
representing their current view independent of all the
fields any such programs might be prepared to display.

Thus the standard 'read', which wouldn't apply to task
level data very well (or efficiently), can now become
a 'read_chain' whereby the former PROC_FILL flags need
can be satisfied & yield the minimum open/close calls.

f7b84f45c7 top: tweak argument parsing for some locale situations
Boy I hate locale stuff. For code I thought was pretty
robust, Jaromir sure proved that it wasn't. Anyway, me
thinks this commit closes some gaps and will cause top
to behave appropriately under various locale settings.

It does *not* permit top to respond to the ',' and '.'
floating point separator without regard to the locale.
It does, however, enforce proper LC_NUMERIC responses.

Let's look on this commit as an interim solution until
Jaromir can create that proposed 'fp_decode' function.
Who knows, he might even borrow some of our mkfloat().

[ An aside: the coreutils sleep and timeout programs ]
[ claim to permit floating point arguments. However, ]
[ neither one will accept the comma separator should ]
[ the locale be a country that in fact uses a comma. ]

[ In other words, with this commit we are way ahead! ]

41ab7f005e top: with new bar graphs, make 'b' toggle unrestricted
While the 'b' toggle remains window based (vs. global)
it should no longer require that the window be visible
and either the 'x' or 'y' toggles to be on. Previously
those requirements were intended to remind a user that
there must be something for this command to highlight.

With the introduction of graph modes (specifically the
the bar graph) the 'bold/reverse' toggle has important
implications beyond highlighting some columns or rows.

The %Cpu(s) graph and Mem portion of the memory graphs
are designed to offer a visual clue as to the separate
elements comprising them. But that separation could be
lost under some X color schemes or when top is running
without color (in monochrome mode) and the block graph
is selected. But, if the graph is then changed to bars
any separation always becomes visible whenever the 'b'
toggle is turned off. Portions then show in 'reverse'.

So from now on we'll check nothing, we'll just toggle.

[ Besides, with all the code thrown at restricting a ]
[ 'b' toggle use, it might have all been for naught. ]
[ That toggle could still be set/unset using the 'Z' ]
[ command and the color mapping screen. Geez Louise! ]

24f1fbd9d0 top: avoid name conflict in the next version of stdlib
Since its inception top has always used enumerators to
identify displayable fields. They've taken the form of
P_PID, etc. As it turns out, something has changed for
libc6-dev versions beyond 2.17-93 wherein 'P_PID' will
now be exposed via stdlib.h. I have not pinpointed the
exact cause but it may depend on header include order.

This patch just trades top's long standing 'P_' prefix
convention for that of 'EU_' (short for enumerator). I
cannot find *any* header under /usr/include/ currently
utilizing this particular three character combination.

And as a further safeguard top will henceforth include
'system' specific headers after the standard includes.

This commit extends the top Summary Area cpu states to
include information on Non-Uniform Memory Architecture
nodes. It is based upon changes originally proposed by
Lance Shelton who was instrumental in the final patch.

With this change, the user will have new commands that
will provide alternatives to the individual cpu stats:

. '2' toggles between cpu & numa node summary displays
. '3' provides node summary and related cpu statistics

These extensions required some minimal system support.
Typically, the numactl package (and maybe libnuma-dev)
are all that's needed to show a single node which owns
all the processors. Failing that, or for slightly more
variety, top also offers a #define named PRETEND_NUMA.

Someday I will get around to formerly documenting them

. functions & sections are ordered to avoid prototypes
. function names are alphabetical within every section

6f25f956e7 top: a few small adjustments to reduce display flicker
This change involves the Fields Management logic only.

With user position being maintained after signals, the
previous algorithm unfortunately used Cap_clr_eos with
each iteration of the loop. The screen flicker invited
with that choice was not apparent under all emulators.

With this commit, clearing to end-of-screen has become
conditional on whether or not there was a true resize.

(everything is perfectly justified plus right margins)
(are completely filled, but of course it must be luck)

ba9092ad83 top: preserve current screen when receiving a SIGWINCH
Prior to this commit, top has always taken the easiest
(safest?) approach when dealing with those troublesome
SIGWINCH interrupts. Whenever the user was on a screen
other than the main display, any signal received would
force an immediate exit, returning to the main screen.

With these changes, top will retain the user's current
position regardless of what screen he/she was viewing.

In support the following additional changes were made:
* the initial help screen requires an explicit end key
` not 'any other key' formerly used to request an exit
* the colors mapping screen instructions were improved
* ^Z response was made immediate, eliminating the flag
* the sigaction's SA_RESTART flag had to be eliminated
* sigprocmask logic was normailize to the bare minimum
* the POSIX.1-2004 async-signal safe functions used in
` the signal handlers were acknowledged and documented

(everything is perfectly justified plus right margins)
(are completely filled, but of course it must be luck)

1da293bf59 top: accumulated miscellaneous code and comment tweaks
This commit just addresses the following minor issues:

. restored both lost end-of-job reporting capabilities
. added missing initializers to the DEF_RCFILE #define
. added 'nls_maybe' eye-catcher to the 'Scaled_sfxtab'
. removed a now superfluous 'READMINSZ' assertion test
. man document references to 'top' are more consistent

(everything is perfectly justified plus right margins)
(are completely filled, but of course it must be luck)
