0053eefbb9 top: extend rcfile conversions for '--enable-oomem'
Under openSUSE, old top uses additional fields for
out-of-memory reporting.  As a result, under the
original approach to rcfile conversion, new top would
issue a fatal corrupt window entry message asking that
the rcfile be deleted.

This patch extends the conversion range to include
the extra openSUSE field characters.  It's effective
when ./configure specifies the --enable-oomem option
which in turn defines OOMEM_ENABLE.

This commit also makes the conversion logic slightly
more forgiving.  While enforcing an upper limit on the
expected number of old style field characters, amounts
less than that will be handled seemlessly.

4b98733132 top: honor the restrictive, crufty old top rcfile
At one time, new top silently defaulted when an rcfile
was found to be incompatible.  This is exactly what
the old top did.  However, after some discussion it
was decided top should alert the user and thereby
save the system administrator some headaches.

Now, some are upset over the fatal error, proving you
can't please everybody.  But in all fairness, given
the difficulty of customizing old top, any reluctance
to delete an old saved rcfile is understandable.

To ease transition to this new top, old style rcfiles
will now be honored and converted to the new format.
And if not disabled at ./configure time via CFLAGS,
a user will be warned when an old style rcfile is
about to be overwritten using the 'W' command.

Lastly, the config validation logic was enhanced to
help ensure both types of rcfile haven't been edited
manually and possibly made unuseable.

efb9fcb816 top: relocate a prototype to prevent compiler warning
Until the 'locate/search' provisions were added,
top avoided the need for any function prototypes
through careful source file organization.  But
the addition of the find_string function required
a prototpe for task_show, lest a massive file
reorganization be undertaken.

This commit moves the actual protype out of top.h
and places it adjacent to the caller in order to
avoid a warning when top_nls.c is compiled.

045538e01b top: remove residual logic for obsolete functionality
At one time the 'open_psdb_message' library call was
supported with the concept of a postponed message
which would display after top startup completed.
In turn, that required logic to strip the '\n' which
was embedded (inappropriately) in any such message.

Nowdays top treats such a returned error as fatal so
there is no need for the 'strim' function which is
being removed with this commit.

ee3ed4b45e top: update latest CPU % distortions understanding
We originally approached the potential problem of
% CPU distortions as unique to Nehalem type cpus.
The latest information suggests that it may have
been due to a kernel anomaly that has since been
corrected.

Yet even without such a cpu, wide disparities in
tics allocation among all available cpus have
sometimes been observed -- spikes as it were in
the normal pattern.  This has happened under both
version 2.26.38-13 and 3.0.0-15 kernels.

The small amount of additional code addressing the
original problem carries very little overhead.  It
is being retained to afford protection against any
future tic accounting aberrations.

In this commit, supporting programmer comments have
been divorced from any particular cpu type.  Also,
another variable and manifest constant will now be
eliminated when CPU_ZEROTICS is defined.

ccb5144050 top: fix regression created when fields mgmt reorg'd
When the calibrate_fields function was broken up for
mainainability, an obscure regression was introduced.

For the resulting bug to affect the display, all of
the following conditions would have to be met:
 . USE_X_COLHDR was not defined
 . column highlighting had been turned on
 . many, perhaps all, fields were displayable
 . the user then typed the <End> key
 . and the current sort column just happened to
   be immediately to the left of the left-most
   visible field

This patch corrects for that remote possibility.

d0e16acf15 top: reorganize some fields management logic
The calibrate_fields function had grown too large and
was adversly impacting maintainence.  So half of the
logic was split out into a new function.

Now, maintainence of column headers and the required
library flags is organized as follows:

 . adj_geometry   (calibrate_fields helper)
     provides low-level support for sigwinch, memory

 . build_headers  (calibrate_fields helper)
     constructs the headers and library flags

 . calibrate_fields
     establishes which fields will be displayed

270e8e7eeb top: standardize names of all 'helper' functions
The top program is carefully organized into sections
and those sections are carefully placed so as to avoid
the need for prototypes. *

Additionally, names of functions are carefully chosen
to maintain alphabetical order within each section.

The names of most 'helper' functions, which are always
placed immediately above the calling functions, often
only met the spirit of the alphabetical law, not the
actual letter of that law.

This commit alters the names of such helper functions
so as to mainatin strict ascii alphabetical order
within each section.

* the single exception to prototypes is find_string,
  which calls the task_show function, and would have
  prompted a massive reorganization.

ce1410a51a top: fixup logic for Nehalem cpu 'idle' threshold
Due to a poorly constructed temporary fprintf
used during development, an earlier commit went
a little too far in its computations.  The net
result was the code looked nice but actually
accomplished nothing.

It is the /proc/stat line 1 (summary line)
whose tics must be used in establishing the
threshold boundary.  And that calculation
need be performed just once per frame.

This commit ensures one threshold calculation
per delay interval no matter how many cpus
are ultimately displayed.

It also corrects scalability by factoring in
the total number of online processors.

9e7dd43ab7 top: tweak the new 'reduce % CPU distortions' algorithm
The original approach to potential % CPU distortion due
to Nehalem type cores being turned off completely when
idle worked ok until the user typed something.

At that point, elapsed tics would no longer equal the
calculated value producing an undesirable 100% idle
condition until the next update or <Enter/Space> key.

This commit employs actual elapsed tics in determining
whether a cpu should be considered idle and thus makes
top's individual cpu display immune to user keystrokes.

a9041a5526 top: reduce % CPU distortions when a core was turned off
This patch provides for cpu cores which can be turned
off completely when idle (Nehalem, etc.) thus registering
very few or no tics since the last update cycle.

When CPU_ZEROTICS is not defined (the default), any
displayed cpu with less than a certain amount of total
tics will show as 100% idle.  That amount is tempered
by the delay interval and total number of cpus.

This commit also satisfies the Debian 'top_nohz' patch
(11/24/09) in a slightly more efficient manner.  That
patch concerned kernels built with CONFIG_NO_HZ.

f348575edc top: tolerate loss of smp cpus, improve CPU_t management
Prior to this patch, top was able to handle any hotplugged
cpus *added* to the system in two distinct ways.

 1) Newly added cpus would be detected by sysinfo_refresh
    calling the library's cpuinfo function, which occurs
    at most every 5 minutes.

 2) The user could force a refresh using either the
    <Enter> or <Space> keys.

Unfortunately, the *loss* of a cpu would produce an early
exit due to a /proc/stat read failure.  Such a failure
can be produced in the following way:
  sudo echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu??/online

This commit allows top to tolerate the loss of cpus.
It also provides for more efficient CPU_t management,
especially for massively parallel cpu environments.

Note: Changes to the cpu compliment can produce a single
cycle distortion of cpu percentages.  Such distortion is
most visible when each cpu is being displayed.  It can
be eliminated with a forced refresh via <Enter>/<Space>.

0c6aa6af41 top: improve USE_X_COLHDR effect when colors toggled off
Normally, when the chosen sort column is displayed via the
'x' command toggle the entire column is highlighted.  And
while this version of top substantially reduced the cost
of such highlighting, a small pathlength increase remained.

The USE_X_COLHDR define was an experimental alternative which
eliminated all recurring runtime costs for such emphasis by
highlighting the column header, not the entire column.

The previous implementation required colors to be turned on
(the 'z' toggle) for such highlighting to be visible.  This
commit extends column header emphasis to include monochrome
displays as well.
