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. commitbb4f08ba29
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. commita5881b5a4e
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. commitc3a1239efe
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. Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>
COMPATIBILITY This code is intended for use with Linux 2.6.xx, 3.x and hopefully all future kernels. INSTALLATION If you are using git version of the project you need extra step. ./autogen.sh After that, and everyone using .tar.xz version of procps-ng, can do normal build. Read './configure --help' to select options for your needs. ./configure make make install If you have DejaGNU installed you can run optional test suite. make check HOW TO CONTRIBUTE See Documentation/BUGS file. PACKAGING If you are a downstream maintainer (packager) for a Linux distribution, please avoid causing troubles. This section applies to you. Avoid maintaining distribution specific patches. Send your patches to upstream, where they are at least reviewed, if not included. Please forward bug reports. If your bug database is public and busy enough to bother with, please make this known. Follow Debian's lead in making the bug database easy to comment on via email without need for an account. For normal packages, ensure that you do not add debugging flags to the CFLAGS variable.
