7933435584 ps: allow large list of groups
Current linux kernels output no more than 32 groups
in /proc/{pid}/status.

Plan is to increase this limit.

This patch allows ps to not core dump if the buffer used to read status
file was too small.

# ps aux
Signal 11 (SEGV) caught by ps (procps-ng version 3.3.3).
ps:display.c:59: please report this bug

Also increases the size of the buffer from 1024 to 4096, since even with
32 groups we are close to the limit.

e77c8e8cf0 top: for performance, employ additional inlining
The 'refactor and enhance column width management'
recent redesign produced many subsequent benefits,
the latest of which is automatically sized fixed-width
non-scalable columns.

As expected, there was a cost associated with these
many enhancements.  That cost has now been identified
as a 1-4% performance degradation, depending on which
fields are being displayed.

This increased cost arises principally from current
drawing related function calls, whereas top-3.3.3 did
most of its drawing via macros effectively inlining
those duties.

This commit inlines the equivalent drawing functions,
thus eliminating the function call penalty, and places
this top on a par with top-3.3.3.  The trade off is a
modest additional 4k in executable size.

35cd340002 top: 'X' command offers auto option
The recent introduction of a column widths override
(the 'X' command) provided for a user input amount
to be added to default field size which ranged from
5 to 10 bytes.

While that approach could prevent truncated data, the
different default sizes would almost certainly mean
some precious screen real estate was waisted.

This commit introduces the concept of dynamic widths
where top will add only enough to a field default to
prevent truncation for that specific field.

Now users have a choice between their explicit width
override or a width chosen by top to exactly match
display needs.  The former is immediate but likely
wastes some horizontal space while the latter is
iterative but will be sized precisely.

Original 'X' Command:

Extensions to 'X' Command:

edd8aae5ba top: avoid potential xterm state corruption
To support the cursor navigation keys, after saving
the termios structure top issues 'smkx/keypad_xmit'
during startup.  However, some terminals appear to
treat that directive as persistent which leaves a
corrupted tty state after top exit.

This commit reverses the above terminal directive
via 'rmkx/keypad_local' just prior to restoring the
saved termios structure at program end.

7557f3f754 top: with new 'X' command, WCHAN becomes fixed-width
This 'Sleeping in function' field was made variable
width because the length of current kernel symbols
usually exceeded the former top's 9 character limit.

As a variable width field it would steal valuable
horizontal display positions from other, more likely,
displayed fields such as COMMAND or CGROUPS.

With the advent of the new 'X' toggle, no fixed-width
non-scalable field need suffer permanent truncation.
Thus, WCHAN is being made fixed width with a default
size of 10 characters.

  . 8 characters for user/group type fields

With a new interactive command, users can increase the

Note:
   There are no restrictions on the amount added to
   the defaults.  The user is free to vastly exceed
   screen limits which simply means such fields can

a65de0fd73 ps: favor truncation of long names over POSIX/UNIX standard
The UNIX and POSIX standards require that user and
group names be printed as decimal integers when there
is insufficient room.  This has led to a constant
stream of bug reports.

With this commit, long names will be truncated and
displayed with a trailing visual clue.

To avoid truncation. the UNIX and POSIX way to change
column width is to rename the column:
   ps -o pid,user=CumbersomeUserNames -o comm

The easy way is to directly specify the desired width:
   ps -o pid,user:19,comm

beb0982b28 top: implement a new approach to forest view mode
The TREE_RESCANS #define (formerly TREE_ONEPASS) has
been eliminated and the approach to forest view mode
redesigned.  The chance of dangling children has been
eliminated and overhead reduced.

We now order processes on start_time (non-display)
and are therefore immune to any pid, ppid or tgid
anomalies when pid values wrap.

The new algorithm also accommodates any distortions
caused by the 3.3 kernel 'hidepid' provisions --
something guaranteed to produce dangling children
under the former approach.

a2086dfdf6 top: revise default for forest view child scans
In an effort to avoid dangling children when in forest
view mode, top defaulted to a complete rescan of every
proc_t for each child encountered.

That expense was never really cost justified and now
with the 3.3 kernel 'hidepid' provisions it no longer
can offer such protection.

With this commit, the TREE_ONEPASS define is changed
to TREE_RESCANS so as to reverse the default scan
behavior.

fbfaa868ba top: improve scroll coordinates message handling
With the introduction of intra-column scrolling, the
scroll coordinates message was enhanced to give some
hint of positioning within a scrolled column.

Rather than rebuild this somewhat costly string from
scratch with each frame, we'll now do the bulk of the

The only remaining per frame costs will then be the
addition of a few terminfo escapes and the current
Frame_maxtask count.

Two utility buffers of 128 KiB each were already

trades the smaller 1024 byte stack based buffers for
those much larger existing ones.  Thus, truncation
can be avoided with no additional run-time costs.

8b64b36bbf library: standardize handling of cgroup, supgid
Some inconsistencies have emerged during development
of support for these relatively new proc_t fields.

For example, a PROC_FILLCGROUP flag (via file2strvec)
could return NULL in cgroup whereas PROC_EDITCGRPCVT
(via fill_cgroup_cvt) *almost* guaranteed a return
address (as is true for PROC_EDITCMDLCVT and cmdline).
But even PROC_EDITCGRPCVT could return NULL if the
kernel version was less than 2.6.24.  Then with NULL
ps would display a "-" while top would show "n/a".

And while unlikely, with the PROC_FILLSTATUS flag (via
status2proc) a NULL supgid address was theoretically
possible and both ps and top would then show "n/a".

This commit standardizes the following usage:
  . PROC_FILLSTATUS         (via status2proc)
      guarantees a valid supgid address
      representing either a true comma
      delimited list or "-"
  . PROC_FILLCGROUP  plus
    PROC_EDITCGRPCVT        (via fill_cgroup_cvt)
      guarantees a cgroup single vector
      representing either a true control
      group hierarchy or "-"

And as was true before, the following remains true:
    PROC_FILLCOM     or
    PROC_FILLARG            (via file2strvec)
      may return a NULL cmdline pointer
  . PROC_FILLCGROUP         (via file2strvec)
      may return a NULL cgroup pointer
  . PROC_FILLCOM     or
    PROC_FILLARG     plus
    PROC_EDITCMDLCVT        (via fill_cmdline_cvt)
      guarantees a cmdline single vector
      representing either a true command
      line or a bracketed program name
  . PROC_FILLSTATUS  plus
    PROC_FILLSUPGRP         (via supgrps_from_supgids)
      guarantees a valid supgrp address
      representing either a true comma
      delimited list or "-"

f4b6de1136 ps: restore missing space when environment is displayed
This commit restores the missing space between command
lines and the environment when the later is being
displayed.  Below is a brief history of that elusive
character.

commit bb4f08ba29
Date:   Thu Aug 11 07:42:14 2011 +1000
   The ps program was altered for improved args/comm
   compliance.  At this time, the needed space was
   present due to a buglet in the new library
   read_unvectored function used by fill_cmdline_cvt.

commit a5881b5a4e
Date:   Thu Dec 8 10:19:38 2011 -0600
   The trailing space was eliminated so that the
   file2strvec and fill_cmdline_cvt returned
   command lines contained no trailing space.

   However, this created a buglet when control group
   hierarchies were displayed and the final cgroup
   was empty.

   This is also where the undetected ps buglet was
   created.

commit c3a1239efe
Date:   Sun Dec 11 12:00:50 2011 -0600
   The control group anomaly was fixed but the impact
   on ps args/environ was still not detected.

00d7d4e37a vmstat si and so fields zero with -S mM 1
'si' and 'so' values depend on the result of the unitConvert
function where the output is a fixed-point size of kb_per_page
after the conversion. It gives 4 for kB units and 0 for MB units.
This also causes problems when switching between 'K' and 'k'
since the output value is 4 in both cases and the result for
'k' and 'K' then doesn't differ ... I swapped the conversion with
multiplication in order to make the number higher so it doesn't
lose precision. Since the unitConvert now accepts long instead
of int, I had to change the input type from int to long.
