This commit is an outgrowth of the research into a bug
that recently surfaced with the 'w' program. And while
that program was just a victim several inconsistencies
were found in the handling of library flags during the
research. This patch just address such irregularities.

Functions related to namespaces were half-in half-out of the
procps library and didn't fit the standard naming scheme.
While struct { long ns[x]} is a bit clunky, its the only way
to "lock in" x. The alternative is to use ns_* variables.
This work was needed before pgrep could be converted.
The patch below is where most proc_t fixed size arrays
became simple pointers to char. In that commit changes
to the above function were made so that dynamic memory
was freed which included the program name (cmd) field.
That change was prompted by a valgrind reported memory
leak during development that no longer seems to exist.
However, by keeping the look_up_our_self() changes the
ps command without args then fails to report anything.
So this patch just restores the expected old behavior.

A few minor changes are being made to position the old
readproc logic for a transition to the newlib pid api.
These changes will not impact current users beyond the
the need to recompile such code. Hopefully this should
be very last version change to the deprecated library.
. most char arrays were replaced via char * to dynamic
memory. this was done so that newlib could just assume
ownership of such strings without using a strdup call.
. former user and group name arrays also became char *
but here the reason was because pwcache already cached
those names. so, copying to an array never made sense.
. the concept of QUICK_THREADS used to avoid duplicate
overhead for string data was disabled. it could not be
integrated with the newlib design, at least initially.
. any #define which influenced the size of that proc_t
was disable in the header. it was probably a poor idea
to approach optional features in such a manner anyway.

This commit adds a lxc container name to every proc_t.
If a process is not running in a container, then a '-'
will be provided, making such a field always sortable.
Unlike other proc_t character pointers, lxc containers
will find many duplicate shared values. So rather than
strdup 'em (with a later free required upon reuse), we
try to keep track of those already seen and share that
address among all tasks running within each container.
We rely on the lines in the task's cgroup subdirectory
which may initially seem somewhat unsophisticated. But
the lxc library itself uses a similar approach when it
is called to list active containers. In that case, the
/proc/net/unix directory is parsed for the '/lxc' eye-
catcher, with potential complications from hashed path
and names that are too long (something we don't face).
[ too bad docker abandoned lxc - our commit won't do ]
[ anything for the users of those kind of containers ]

Under some circumstances the ksh shell doesn't fork new processes
when executing scripts and the script is interpreted by the
parent process. That makes the execution faster, but it means
ksh needs to reuse the /proc/PID/cmdline for the new script name
and arguments while the file length needs to stay untouched.
The fork is skipped only when the new cmdline is shorter than
the parent's cmdline and the rest of the file is filled
with '\0'. This is perfectly ok until we try to read the cmdline
of such process. As the read_unvectored() function replaces
all zeros with chosen separator, these trailing zeros are replaced
with spaces in case of the ps tool. Consequently it appends
multiple spaces at the end of the arguments string even when these
zeros do not represent any separators and therefore shouldn't
be replaced.
With this commit the read_unvectored() function skips the
replacement of trailing zeros and separates valid content only.

While 'invisible' thread subdirectories are accessible
under /proc/ with stat/opendir calls, they have always
been treated as non-existent, as is true with readdir.
This patch trades the /proc/#/ns access convention for
the more proper /proc/#/task/#/ns approach when thread
access is desired. In addition some namespace code has
been simplified and made slightly more efficient given
the calloc nature of proc_t acquisition and its reuse.

One recent patch to dynamic buffer management involved
over-allocating the buffer increase to lessen calls to
xrealloc. That was successful, but the actual increase
amount did not attempt to optimize size or alignments.
With this commit, we'll copy an approach recently used
by the top program and round up buffer sizes to 1 KiB.
More importantly, while buffers are quickly reaching a
KiB optimum multiple, no memcpy will ever be employed!
To illustrate just how effective top's algorithm would
be, just change the initial and subsequent allocations
from the current 1024 bytes to just a single byte then
add an fprintf. Those one byte reallocations while on
the way to optimum buffer size will be a one-time cost
and won't represent any recurring performance penalty.
( gosh, that top program *must be* one fart smeller, )

When utility buffers were introduced for file2str read
requests, a subtle change was inadvertently introduced
such that a read of zero no longer returns a -1 value.
This commit ensures that zero bytes read returns a -1.
And although the solution differs from a merge request
submitted by sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com, a thank you
is offered for revealing this potential abend problem.

When dynamic buffers were recently introduced for read
of the status, stat and statm subdirectories one extra
call to read() was required for end-of-file detection.
This patch avoids most all such extra calls to read().
Additionally, the frequency of memory reallocations is
reduced by overallocating each increase more than 25%.

A recent Debian bug report, dealing with release 3.2.8
and its even more restrictive buffer sizes (1024) used
in stat, statm and status reads via file2str calls, is
a reminder of what could yet happen to procps-ng. Size
needs are determined by kernel evolution and/or config
options so that bug could resurface even though buffer
size is currently 4 times the old procps-3.2.8 limits.
Those sizes were raised from 1024 to 4096 bytes in the
patch submitted by Eric Dumazet, and referenced below.
This patch makes libprocps immune to future changes in
the amount of stuff that is ultimately found in a proc
'stat', 'statm' or 'status' subdirectory. We now trade
the former static buffer of 4096 bytes for dynamically
allocated buffers whose size can be increased by need.
Even though this change is solely an internal one, and
in no way directly affects the API or the ABI, libtool
suggests that the LIBprocps_REVISION be raised. I hope
Craig remembers to do that just before a next release.
We don't want a repeat of the procps-ng-3.3.4 boo-boo,
but with no API/ABI impact that probably can't happen.

The control group hierarchies for any particular task
could conceivably grow quite large. However, the
library might impose an arbitrary limit of 1024 bytes
via fill_cgroup_cvt.
Two utility buffers of 128 KiB each were already
available for command line use. This commit simply
trades the smaller 1024 byte stack based buffers for
those much larger existing ones. Thus, truncation
can be avoided with no additional run-time costs.

Some inconsistencies have emerged during development
of support for these relatively new proc_t fields.
For example, a PROC_FILLCGROUP flag (via file2strvec)
could return NULL in cgroup whereas PROC_EDITCGRPCVT
(via fill_cgroup_cvt) *almost* guaranteed a return
address (as is true for PROC_EDITCMDLCVT and cmdline).
But even PROC_EDITCGRPCVT could return NULL if the
kernel version was less than 2.6.24. Then with NULL
ps would display a "-" while top would show "n/a".
And while unlikely, with the PROC_FILLSTATUS flag (via
status2proc) a NULL supgid address was theoretically
possible and both ps and top would then show "n/a".
This commit standardizes the following usage:
. PROC_FILLSTATUS (via status2proc)
guarantees a valid supgid address
representing either a true comma
delimited list or "-"
. PROC_FILLCGROUP plus
PROC_EDITCGRPCVT (via fill_cgroup_cvt)
guarantees a cgroup single vector
representing either a true control
group hierarchy or "-"
And as was true before, the following remains true:
PROC_FILLCOM or
PROC_FILLARG (via file2strvec)
may return a NULL cmdline pointer
. PROC_FILLCGROUP (via file2strvec)
may return a NULL cgroup pointer
. PROC_FILLCOM or
PROC_FILLARG plus
PROC_EDITCMDLCVT (via fill_cmdline_cvt)
guarantees a cmdline single vector
representing either a true command
line or a bracketed program name
. PROC_FILLSTATUS plus
PROC_FILLSUPGRP (via supgrps_from_supgids)
guarantees a valid supgrp address
representing either a true comma
delimited list or "-"

Commit a5881b5a4e, addressing
command lines with a trailing space, produced an undesirable
side effect in the fill_cgroup_cvt() function.
This patch restores correct cgroup behavior while still
producing command lines with no trailing space.
When PROC_FILLARG was used (invoking file2strvec)
command lines contained no trailing space.
When PROC_EDITCMDLCVT was used (invoking read_unvectored)
command lines contained a trailing space.
Now both routes to a cmdline act the same -- no trailing space.
The CodingStyle document suggests programs should allow for
cmdlines of at least 128k. Only the ps program can display
such a cmdline, and only with multiple -w switches.
The library function file2strvec can essentially return
a cmdline of unlimited length. However, the library function
fill_cmdline_cvt used an arbitrary upper limit of 2048 for
buffers automatically allocated on the stack.
This patch raises the fill_cmdline_cvt upper limit to 128k via
dymaically acquired utility buffers ensured by the openproc
function.
It also makes indentation consistent in the openproc function.
There were numerous library memory allocation inconsistencies.
Some were checked for failure and others were not.
All library source modules were modified to utilize the alloc.h
memory rouines which are consistent in dealing with errors.

This will revert change at Oct 2002 when autotools support was

Unlike before the package developers are expected to use
./autogen.sh to generate ./configure script, and run make after
that. The build system is also able to create, with make dist, a
tar ball release which compiles correctly, and has files which
seemed to be important to have.
The patch removes few unnecessary files, but no everything. Files
procps.lsm and procps.spec in git repository are useless as is,
but I left them lying around for someone who can make more
justified call about removal of them.
Last, but not least package version number is set 3.3.0 to
