ec21588be1 library: tweak those system cpu statistics, <stat> api
This patch may be a little misleading in terms of size
since most of the changes just reorder a little logic.
The most significant changes involve two GUEST values.

My original implementation excluded such tics from the
TOTAL calculation and, therefore, the BUSY figure too.

That decision was erroneously based on some code found
in ./kernel/sched/cputime.c which in hindsight applies
only to processes, not those system level cpu figures.

[ another likely oops classified STOLEN tics as IDLE ]

So, this patch attempts to bring those SUM values into
better agreement with the calculations performed for a
root cgroup (see ./kernel/cgroup/rstat.c source file).

[ we differ from those above in that we also include ]
[ the IDLE plus IOWAIT tics in our TOTAL calculation ]

2c1973d64c library: eliminate one potential source of human error
There's a huge toe-stubber awaiting future maintenance
as reflected in that commit below which deals with the
addition of new enumerators to the Item_table. Namely,
whenever the table is grown, one must remember to also
change that existing 'logical_end' enumerator's value.

Well, not anymore! Since that MAXTABLE macro was added
to the procps-private.h header we can now also exploit
it so a 'logical_end' automatically tracks table size.

This change also renders some code associated with the
ITEMTABLE_DEBUG #define unnecessary. So it's gone too.

81db6664c9 library: fix a flaw in one 'new' function, <diskstats>

0cddb06425 build-sys: proper fix for the 'test_Itemtables' module
Me thinks Craig had the right idea but perhaps not the
most correct solution. As currently structured, all of
the tests now go way too far by checking every 'unref'
and 'new' call when what we're trying for is survival.

In the final analysis, it doesn't matter who issues an
EXIT_FAILURE - that run_tests guy or an early Exit out
of a procps_new() function. They both will produce the
same end result of the desired "FAIL" test diagnostic.

[ and this patch once again allows the slabinfo test ]

4eeed6dcff build-sys: Check return values and NULL ctx
The referenced commit introduced a test program for the API
but it would often fail due to:
  The given pointer for _new() not being NULL
  The return value for _new not checked, so the subsequent _unref()
  would free() random memory
  slabinfo checks failing due to permission denied errors.

The first two are fixed, as well as returning a fail to the test
if they don't return correctly, with slabinfo waiting to see if there
is a way of initialising the structure without reading the slabinfo.

e616409aa4 build-sys: added a 'test_Itemtables' to testing scheme
This change sets the stage for exploiting the recently
added ITEMTABLE_DEBUG #define. All tests are performed
in a single module (after trying 6 separate programs).

The chances of each test detecting errors is extremely
remote (at least while I'm maintaining these modules).
However, this single program approach has one flaw and
it relates to the response whenever an error is found.

Each of those six new API modules calls Exit() if they
detect an error. Otherwise, incorrect results would be
produced at the least or an abend encountered at most.

This means that multiple 'make check' invocations will
be needed if more than 1 module actually was in error.

All in all, it is a small price for a large assurance.

92d0297e1e library: introduced 'Item_table' validation provisions
The recent work on updating the <meminfo> and <vmstat>
modules with some newly added linux fields reminded me
(again) of a need for some mechanism guaranteeing that
a header file agrees with the source file assumptions.

Sadly, in the past, if a table entry was omitted or if
the table and header are ordered differently, then the
library would silently return the wrong results values
or even potentially experience a SIGSEGV abnormal end.

This patch offers a much needed development assist for
ensuring that Item_table entries are synchronized with
header file enumerators in terms of number plus order.

It's intended solely for our use as libprocps evolves.

Now, by activating ITEMTABLE_DEBUG, either directly or
via ./configure CFLAGS='-DITEMTABLE_DEBUG', the number
and order will be verified. It is envisioned that this
feature will be used at least once prior to a release.

dbe34f6312 library: ensure 'XTRA_PROCPS_DEBUG' works in real life
This commit attempts to smooth some wrinkles impacting
any future libprocps user exploitation. The 2 problems
relate exclusively to our XTRA_PROCPS_DEBUG provision.

1. The 'xtra-procps-debug.h' header had an include for
'procps-private.h', which was not an installed header.
So the STRINGIFY macros will now be embedded directly.

2. Each of the new api headers referenced '<proc/...>'
rather than '<procps/...>' for the debugging #include.
So, we must drop that prefix in favor of a quoted file
name so that debugging builds work regardless of where
that 'xtra-procps-debug.h' header happens to be found.

605ea4a8f7 library: make that 'escape_str' private to our library
In that commit referenced below, a promise was made to
revisit an 'escape_str' function in efforts to make it

1aa8b16441 library: eliminated the questionable 'procps.h' header
There was a time when that procps.h file served a more
traditional role. Prior to the commit referenced below
it held just macros plus manifest constants. But, with
that change, such items were replaced with a series of
includes embracing all the library exported functions.

That approach was known to disguise errors which would
have otherwise yielded a compiler warning. And without

So this patch will trade the all inclusive header file
approach for individual includes only where necessary.

df8fb11a47 library: changes to some numa stuff in that <stat> api
Now that we may be getting serious with documentation,
that stat module was revisited with an eye toward user
friendliness. Heck, even this author puzzled over some
of the existing notes and naming conventions employed.

So, this patch will adjust some identifiers and expand
the notes to (hopefully) better serve potential users.

The most significant change was making the STAT_TIC_ID
always valid for numa nodes, even if any are inactive.

Thus the -22222 special STAT_NODE_INVALID constant now
is applied only to STAT_TIC_NUMA_NODE. It will be used
on the cpu summary and reaps with STAT_REAP_CPUS_ONLY.
And it will also mark any numa node that was inactive.

fc4fb85e7b docs: replace 'procps_pids' stuff with revised version
The original approach contained a fatal flaw. In order
to use those man pages, users would have been required
to already know how to use the library. Or alternately
one could randomly search each of them while trying to
ascertain which function call satisfies their need and
what exactly was the proper compliment/order required.

So, this revised approach tries to simplify things and
document only what is not apparent in the header file.
Along the way, the following assumptions were germane.

1) It is the kernel folks' job to document /proc files
not to mention fields within those files. And since we
don't yet know what some of those fields represent, we
shouldn't attempt to document any of those we do know.

2) Our header file serves as an essential reference in
successful exploitation of this new library interface.

3) The description represents functions as they appear
in the header itself making them immediately familiar.

4) Armed with our header file users can easily see the
self-documenting enumerators & structures. There isn't
a need to explain them yet again in this man document.

5) Contrary to man guidelines, we shouldn't list error
codes. Simple generic guidance serves everyone better.

The following references represent a history for those
man documents this new version is intended to replace.

successful exploitation of the new library interfaces.

3) The description represents functions as they appear
in the header itself making them immediately familiar.

4) Some inconsistencies among the interfaces have been
handled more visually rather than in a narrative form.

5) Armed with our header file users can easily see the
self-documenting enumerators & structures. There isn't
a need to explain them yet again in this man document.

6) Contrary to man guidelines, we shouldn't list error
codes. Simple generic guidance serves everyone better.

52c847a019 library: rename a couple of 'reap' structs to 'reaped'
In preparation for a documentation attempt, this patch
renames 'struct reap' to 'struct reaped' in two of our
interfaces. That will bring all the non-pid interfaces
into agreement since the <stat> api already used that.

740e585b9d top: provide for zero length character in utf8 support
This commit is prompted by the preceding change to the
library's escape.c module which, in turn, was prompted
by that issue shown below (with thanks to Konstantin).

356e9a0672 library: correct that 'escape_str_utf8' guy's behavior
Thanks to Konstantin for discovering 2 problems in the
issue referenced below. That 15+ year old logic went a
little too far overboard wrestling with a utf8 string.

Henceforth, we will not treat 'x9b' as special. And we
also will handle a 'combining acute accent' correctly.

38537f79c7 top: some miscellaneous accumulated tweaks and cleanup
I've grown to hate that man document rendering when it
comes to hyphenation. So this patch will eliminate it.

And we'll also eliminate an unnecessary initialization
in that top program code concerned with combined cpus.

a3f8fa3763 top: fix a minor startup flaw for the '2 abreast' mode
This ensures that a single '4' keystroke will reliably
toggle the new 2 abreast mode ON. Depending on whether
an older configuration file existed or whether top was
configured with '--disable-modern-top', keying the '4'
for a second time might otherwise have been necessary.

ef5750765f top: help the '#define PRETEND48CPU' be more realistic
An old PRETEND8CPUS #define was reintroduced & changed
to PRETEND48CPU to better exercise the new '4' and '!'
toggles. But, the implementation simply duplicated the
/proc/stat summary line for each cpu. Therefore, every
cpu showed the same graph/detail (depending upon 't').

This patch shows the actual individual cpu information
(duplicated, of course, when total cpus are exceeded).

b46af6d213 top: preserved those new '4' and '!' toggles in rcfile
This patch will address Craig's feedback regarding the
original implementation of top's two new toggles. It's
likely other users would have questioned why they were
not saved also, once they discover these new features.

And, since the minimum terminal width was just lowered
to 80 columns, the default for window #1 is also being
changed to show the individual cpu graphs two abreast.

[ assuming no '--disable-modern-top' for ./configure ]
