This patch solves several problems:
1/ Limit the number of characters written (to outbuf) to OUTBUF_SIZE-1
(-1 for the null-terminator).
2/ Always null-terminate outbuf at q.
3/ Move the "rightward" checks *before* the strcpy() calls.
4/ Avoid an integer overflow in these checks (e.g., rightward-4).
May happen if strlen(src) > INT_MAX for example. This patch prevents
escaped_copy() from increasing maxroom and returning -1 (= number of
bytes consumed in dst).

(although we found no problematic calls to the escape*() functions in
procps's code-base, but had to thoroughly review every call; and this is
library code):
1/ off-by-one overflows if the size of the destination buffer is 0;
2/ buffer overflows if this size (or "maxroom") is negative;
3/ integer overflows (for example, "*maxcells+1");
4/ always null-terminate the destination buffer (unless its size is 0).

Under newlib design, ps must loop though all potential
print functions so as to gather the appropriate enum's
while establishing the 'relative' equivalent. The keys
to the setREL/chkREL macros are a NULL 'outbuf' param.
It's imperative that no other functions be called with
that NULL value. Unfortunately, several instances were
found where this was violated. They are now corrected!

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.

No longer will ps print nwchan as 'ffffff', '-' or '1'
since the proc/PID/stat wchan field didn't represent a
real address anyway. Rather, the field will henceforth
output a dash ('-'), the ps customary 'not available'.
That man document was also tweaked to better represent
actual behavior. An asterisk ('*') was never shown for
threaded tasks and that dash ('-') usually didn't mean
running tasks (sometimes associated with permissions).

This patch is a response to errors found in those type

In two cases, former assignments to a result structure
could no longer employ that VAL macro if validation is
active. Thus, direct reference to some stack was used.

nwchan is supposed to be the address of where the process is sleeping,
not the name. Besides %x is a hex number not a string hence the warning.

procps_uptime, previously just plain uptime() used to put the
uptime (as a double) in the first argument and return uptime
(as an int).
It meant if you ran
myuptime2 = procps_uptime(&myuptime1, NULL);
You might get different results for myuptime1 and myuptime2 because
they are different types.
Most library calls use the return value to return the status,
procps_uptime was in the middle.
Until now.
This function will return 0 on success. If you want (for whatever
reason) uptime as an int then cast it.
All of the procps binaries didn't use the return value for uptime
except ps which set a variable to it but never used it anywhere.
escaped_copy(): only appears in ps, moved to ps/output.c
escape_strlist() only used in escape.c made static
escape_command() used in library, made internal
procps.h no longer includes escape.h
escape_str() used by library and ps so needs to be exported
definition put into procps.h including the odd define required.
Far from ideal to have it this way, will look at it another time
to have it all in, all out or split nicer so its not in the API;
perhaps a lib/ file?
The includes used to define a lot of things a library include
should not. It was also a bit messy what was exposed in the library
and what was not.
get_pid_digits -> procps_pid_length and exported correctly
MALLOC attribute move into relevant .c files
NORETURN attribute moved to relevant .c, not used in library
PURE attribute removed, it wasn't used
KLONG/KLF/STRTOUKL were fixed for long, so now just use long
HIDDEN attribute removed. It was for 3 functions. The PROCPS_EXPORT
seems to do the same (opposite) thing.
likely/unlikely removed from most places, its highly debateable
this does anything useful as CPUs have gotten smarter about branches.
Re-arranged the includes, ALL external programs should just #include
<proc/procps.h> then proc/procps.h includes headers for files that
have exported functions. procps.h and the headers it includes should
not use items that are not exportable (e.g. hidden functions or
macros) they go in procps-private.h
If SELINUX is enabled but the machine is using another MAC system
(like apparmor), ps will fallback to just parsing
"/proc/%d/attr/current", otherwise the label/context would not
be properly displayed in that case.

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.

This commit represents the ps transition to the <pids>
'stacks' interface. While an effort to minimize impact
on existing code was made (as with a disguised proc_t)
the changes were still extensive. Along the way, a few
modifications beyond simply conversion were also made.
------------------------------------------------------
Here's a brief overview the design of this conversion:
. The need to satisfy relative enum requirements could
not easily have been made table driven since any entry
in the format_array might require several <pids> items
in support. So I decided to allow every print function
to contribute its own relative enums once the decision
as to exactly what will be printed had been finalized.
. A similar approach was taken for sorting, since it's
possible to have sort keys that will not be displayed.
Here, I relied on the existing print extensions above.
. In summary, just prior to printing ps walks thru two
lists one time (the format_list & sort_list) and calls
each print function. That function does not print, but
sets its required enum if necessary. Later, when those
same functions are called repeatedly for every printed
line, the only overhead will be an if test and branch.
------------------------------------------------------
Below is a summary of major changes beyond conversion:
. Sorts are now the responsibility of the library. And
therefore the total # of sortable fields substantially
increased without effort. Additionally, several quirky
fields remain as sortable, even though they can't ever
be printed(?). Surely that must make sense to someone.
[ while on this subject of sort, please do *not* try ]
[ to sort old ps on 'args'. or better yet, if you do ]
[ try that sort, see if you can determine his order, ]
[ without peeking at the source. that one hurts yet! ]
. All logic dealing with the old openproc flags and ps
struct members known as 'need' have been whacked since
that entire area was solely the new library's concern.
. Remaining malloc/calloc calls to stdlib were changed
to xmalloc/xcalloc from our own include/xalloc.h file.
None of the replaced calls ever checked return values.
[ be aware that 2 minor potential memory leaks exist ]
[ depending on command line arguments. no attempt is ]
[ made to free dynamically acquired format/sort node ]
[ structures upon return; a conscious design choice. ]

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 cgroup field while shown as a vector is a concatenated
string, so alot of the complexity of sorting and displaying
has gone.
This change simplifies the cgroup sorting and adds display
and sorting for the name attribute of the cgroup, if found.
