When a visual separator was added to 2 abreast summary
items in a recent commit, this bug was introduced. So,
from that earlier patch we'll revert one line of code.
The bug surfaced under an 80/even column terminal only
when that '4' toggle was off. With an an 81/odd column
screen, it existed in both single and 2 abreast modes.
[ this commit also goes the extra distance to ensure ]
[ two abreast mode maximizes available screen width. ]

When that 'F' focus command has been applied to a task
in forest view it should remain as the topmost process
in a particular window. But without this patch that is
not guaranteed. Newly forked/cloned tasks 'above' such
a process result in task(s) appearing which shouldn't.
The effect was as if that up arrow key scrolled beyond
the topmost parent task, which would never be allowed.
[ since scrolling is permitted within a focus range, ]
[ when any task 'above' our focus/topmost task ends, ]
[ we respond as if scrolled with the down arrow key. ]
[ that result is completely appropriate. if the user ]
[ wishes to return to a focused parent, the up arrow ]
[ or home key can be used to accomplish such a goal. ]

For quite some time now, top has stood out like a sore
thumb regarding the approach to cmdline options & help
text. Only short options were used and that same help
text was displayed for '-h' (help) plus 'v' (version).
[ also, top 'rolled his own' when it came to parsing ]
[ options while avoiding that getopt implementation. ]
Well, with this commit all of that has changed and top
now has added a long form of his options. Additionally
he employs getopt_long() for the bulk of that parsing.
[ however, top will still avoid separate fputs calls ]
[ characteristic of other procps-ng programs when it ]
[ comes to help. rather all such text is one string. ]
Along the way, the following major getopt deficiencies
were addressed, assuming the absence of a new #define:
* an equals sign ('=') is allowed on both option forms
* whitespace is allowed before & after the equals sign
* optional arguments needn't abut their related option
for short form nor is an '=' required with either form

When the '4' toggle is on, and Summary Area %Cpu lines

separation is between the two processors. So with this
patch we'll now print a vertical bar separator between
them (looking similar to the existing field headings).
We will also reduce that 'GRAPH_suffix' constant to 1,
reflecting the the trailing ']' bracket only, so as to
maximize top's exploitation of available screen width.

Just to see if I could, the new #define will force the

Sometimes, it might be useful to isolate a parent task
and its forked children from other system activity. As
an example, a user might want to examine workload in a
specific lxc container. Or maybe there is some need to
question what's happening under the same tmux session.
Since forest view mode tends to be a relatively stable
display, it will sometimes satisfy the above need. But
that mode can't currently guarantee the target process
always remains as the topmost task or even is visible.
So, this patch will enable focusing on any parent task
and keeping it as the topmost process while displaying
it and its forked children only. It then appears as if
there is no other activity in that system by virtue of
the blank lines which follow that final child process.
To implement this new feature, top's redundant 'F' key
has been repurposed. It made little sense devoting two
keys to the Fields Management screen (especially since
the key we've taken required two separate keystrokes).

In the patch referenced below, 2 potential abends were
fixed both of which involved 'alternate display mode'.
The root cause of those abends was a negative value in
the 'begnext' field for other than the current window.
And while that potential is fixed for now the existing
code almost invites such problems again in the future.
So, this patch will remove any temptation to name some
other window in the 'mkVIZrow1' macro. And, since that
macro is not the only source of 'begnext' changes, the
'mkVizrowX' is being added to identify such occasions.
[ and for symmetry i've added a 'mkVIZyes' macro and ]

This commit will address potential abends upon leaving

alternate display mode ('A'). It only happens if that
current window was changed with multiple 'a'/'w' keys.
So now, rather than leaving a trail of negative values
in the 'begtask' field, compliments of that win_select
function, we'll remove the mkVIZrow1 macro. Henceforth
it will be issued just once per user interaction. Thus
a promise of 'Curwin' only being impacted is restored.

Since this master library isn't quite as sophisticated
as the newlib version, this patch will protect against
the possibility of multibyte characters in a program's
name combined with some locale without UTF-8 encoding.
[ it is better to treat the COMMAND column length as ]
[ more than what's actually printed than to have the ]
[ line overflow & corrupt the remaining screen lines ]
Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>
When any process' command line contains multibyte utf8
characters, two separate display problems could arise.
1. If that COMMAND column is not displayed as the very
last field, then field(s) to the right are misaligned.
2. Even when last, should utf8 string length (not that
display length) exceed allowable screen width, it will
nonetheless suffer from improper premature truncation.
Number 1 is less of a concern since the cmdline column
is likely to always be the last field to be displayed,
if only to enable right and left scrolling provisions.
Number 2 is much more likely to occur, especially with
additional fields which might be shown before COMMAND.
Or, forest view child tasks can yield the same effect.
So, this commit will permit the correct utf8 multibyte
display regardless of field position or string length.
And, we'll bring top into line with the ps program for
additional fields potentially subject to utf8 display.

This patch is an outgrowth of that commit shown below.
Many additional potential segmentation faults might be

I'm about to break older top rcfile compatibility when

So, this patch corrects the long standing shortcoming.
Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>
For the original implementation of the '4' toggle, the
minimum width was set at 165 columns. This was done to
avoid truncations when detailed cpu statistics (versus
graphs) were being displayed. Those can not be scaled.
Upon reflection, it seems more appropriate to give the
user the choice of whether or not to truncate. And, by
reducing that minimum width requirement to 80 columns,
we'll vastly expand potential use of two abreast mode.
[ we'll keep that original as '#define TOG4_NOTRUNC' ]
The patch also updates the man document appropriately.
Along the way, we will trade the potentially confusing
word 'adjacent' for the more natural 'additional' when
detailing the '!' toggle in 4b. Summary-Area-Commands.

When implementing that earlier '4' toggle, in response

active processors top may have ultimately encountered.
With the new '!' toggle, adjacent cpus can be combined

Several years after the 'e' & 'E' interactive commands
were introduce to affect memory scaling, an 'E' switch
was added. This was after discovering a dropped Redhat
patch which provided a unique 'M' command line switch.
If only for symmetry it makes sense to offer a similar
command switch ('e') for the Task Area memory scaling.
As was true with 'E', top's help text will show 'e' as
if it were a switch without arguments in order to keep
help text displayed without wrap in an 80x24 terminal.

The Debian bug referenced below has nothing to do with
locales. In fact, top was made locale independent back
in release 3.3.13 (April, 2018). However, that bug did
reveal some misplaced logic which this patch corrects.
Prompted by the Qualys audit, all rcfile field strings
were checked for potential duplicates which could only
have resulted from some user's manual/malicious edits.
Unfortunately, that code was executed before top had a
chance to enforce the proper/maximum string length (in
the event an extremely old rcfile had just been read).
This created some potential string overrun references.
In top's original 3.3.15 implementation, the potential
overrun extended for 15 characters. That is the number
of field characters added with 3.3.9 (December, 2013).
But, since strchr() was used, no error exit was taken.
In the revised 3.3.16 implementation, the strchr() was
replaced with '&w->rc.fieldscur[n]'. This held overrun
to a single position while producing an error message.
So, this commit just moves that logic to a point where
fieldscur is guaranteed to be longer than EU_MAXPFLGS.

This commit duplicates a change to that newlib branch.
However, it should be noted that such a change was not
really necessary under this master branch since proc_t
data remains valid much longer. It is being duplicated
here as documentation only. Below is the original msg.
------------------------------------------------------
This patch will eliminate a bug which is unique to our
newlib branch. It's extremely rare and only happens if
a search ('L'/'&') is initiated during the period when
fields are currently being auto-sized (AUTOX_MODE on).
This bug surfaces as either all zero results for tasks
displayed or a segmentation fault, depending upon what
fields were activated. It is caused by the timing of a
call to the <pids> 'reset' function. When called after
a task refresh, but before do_key(), this bug appears.
So this patch just ensures that 'reset' will be called
after do_key() & before the tasks have been refreshed.
