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.

To avoid an out-of-bounds access at checkoff[tmp]. The strspn() at the
beginning of the function protects against it already, but double-check
this in case of some future change.
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).
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.

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.

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.

1/ Do not go deeper than the size of forest_prefix[], to prevent a

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).

The SECURE_ESCAPE_ARGS() macro solves several potential problems
(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).

to avoid dereferencing those NULL pointers, this patch

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
references now that our library allows for validation.
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.
For the record, those instances were to be found here:
. ps - uses PIDS_extra to store the cooked pcpu values
. top - uses PIDS_extra to store the forest view level

Since the VAL macro now requires a 4th parameter, this
commit simply adds the 'info' context structure to it.

For some time with enough compilier flags I have watched the

return snprintf(outbuf, COLWID, "%x", (unsigned)rSv(WCHAN_NAME, str, pp));
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.
nwchan now prints the address, in hex and GCC is happy.

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.
