library: refactor meminfo providing dynamic allocation An earlier approach to meminfo chaining, referenced in the patch shown below, represents the first baby steps toward the goal of some generalized approach with PIDs processing. However, statically allocating a chain for each task or thread is totally impractical. And, while a single chain could serve all PIDs, that would mean a separate call to our library for each running process. This commit is intended as the next evolutionary step, dynamically allocating some 'result' chains to contain as many or as few 'items' as a caller wishes. In other words, holding only those 'items' of current interest. This is the kind of service useful for both top and ps programs if we finally get around to /proc/<PID> data.

library: removed all the 'PROCPS_' enumerator prefixes Many of our item enumerator identifiers are very long, especially in that <VMSTAT> module. Additionally, they all contain the exact same universal 'PROCPS_' prefix. The origins for this are likely found in the desire to avoid name clashes with other potential include files. But with procps-ng newlib, we've probably gone way too far. Did 'PROCPS_PIDS_TICS_SYSTEM' actually offer more protection against clash than 'PIDS_TICS_SYSTEM' does? I don't think so. Besides, no matter how big that name becomes, one can never guarantee they'll never be some clash. And, conversely, extremely short names will not always create conflict. Of course, in either case when some clash occurs, one can always #undef that problem. Thus, this commit will eliminate that 'PROCPS_' prefix making all of those enum identifiers a little shorter. And, we'll still be well above some ridiculously short (criminally short) names found in some common headers: - - - - - - - - - - <term.h> - 'tab', 'TTY', etc - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - <search.h> - 'ENTER', ENTRY', 'FIND', etc ------------------------------------------------------ Finally, with this as a last of the wholesale changes, we will have established the naming conventions below: . only functions will begin with that 'procps_' prefix . exposed structures begin with the module/header name . item enumerators begin like structs, but capitalized . other enumerators work exactly like item enumerators . macros and constants begin just like the enumerators ------------------------------------------------------ Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

library: expand fields yet maintain ABI, <MEMINFO> api With the 4.8 kernel, 2 new fields will be added to the meminfo pseudo file. This commit, soon to be replaced, is intended as an example of how such changes might be incorporated plus still maintain binary compatibility. This actually goes further than is strictly necessary, by retaining meminfo_item ordering for 'set' functions and the creation of hash table entries. However, there is only 1 true requirement, that of Item_table entries which must always agree exactly with item enumerators. All of the other changes could be done alphabetically. Ok, so what happens when an old program encounters the new expanded meminfo items? Well, if it was thoroughly tested against an old library, it won't even see those new fields. On the other hand, if it somehow exceeds a previous MEMINFO_logical_end, then it will just get an extra result structure or two, with no real harm done.

library: remove the ull_int result type, <MEMINFO> api Because of the vast quantities of virtual memory which may be allocated, it initially seemed like a good idea to provide for a widest possible range through the use of a 'ull_int' result type. However, on second thought the implementation was a bit flawed for these reasons: . that underlying meminfo_data variable 'VmallocTotal' is 'unsigned long' not a required 'unsigned long long' . there wasn't a convenient way to value it since each variable was set with a strtoul() call, not strtoull() So this patch will standardize on the 'ul_int' results type (and reduce the associated delta to 's_int' too). For now, we'll rely on protections under a 64-bit arch where a 'ull_int' & 'ul_int' yield identical capacity. Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

library: ensure that all those 'GET' macros are robust When users call the native 'get' functions they have a responsibility to check that the result struct address was indeed returned. But when using those 'GET' macros there was no protection for possible NULL dereference. So this patch will add some protection for a potential failure of an underlying 'get' function. And should it occur then those 'GET' macros will just return a zero. Plus, we'll also mirror that behavior in the debugging header should the XTRA_PROCPS_DEBUG #define be active. And, we might as well add a warning when invalid items are passed to 'GET' macros, just like we do for 'VAL'.

This commit trades the current compromise for a return value guaranteed to satisfy all future needs, namely a pointer to a particular api's specific results struct.

library: standardize all the 'context' structure names This patch attempts to standardize the naming of those most important (declared not defined) context structs. The present practice represents a hodge podge of names only some of which reflect the source /proc file name. And 2 of those file names embed a literal 'info' which is likely the origin of that required parm identifier. Now we'll append a universal '_info' to such structure names, while including the names of those /proc pseudo files where possible. In any case, that context struct will *always* begin with the actual module/header file name.

struct meminfo_info;
library: refactor meminfo providing dynamic allocation An earlier approach to meminfo chaining, referenced in the patch shown below, represents the first baby steps toward the goal of some generalized approach with PIDs processing. However, statically allocating a chain for each task or thread is totally impractical. And, while a single chain could serve all PIDs, that would mean a separate call to our library for each running process. This commit is intended as the next evolutionary step, dynamically allocating some 'result' chains to contain as many or as few 'items' as a caller wishes. In other words, holding only those 'items' of current interest. This is the kind of service useful for both top and ps programs if we finally get around to /proc/<PID> data.

library: standardize all the 'context' structure names This patch attempts to standardize the naming of those most important (declared not defined) context structs. The present practice represents a hodge podge of names only some of which reflect the source /proc file name. And 2 of those file names embed a literal 'info' which is likely the origin of that required parm identifier. Now we'll append a universal '_info' to such structure names, while including the names of those /proc pseudo files where possible. In any case, that context struct will *always* begin with the actual module/header file name.

library: <MEMINFO> api, changed that 'get' return type The following commit message is shared with 4 patches. ------------------------------------------------------ Under the newlib interface most of our 'get' functions represent a bit of a compromise in that the actual raw values are coerced into one (probably ok) return type. That approach creates the possibility of truncation at best, and wouldn't serve future needs should something other than numeric data be added to the 'get' results. This commit trades the current compromise for a return value guaranteed to satisfy all future needs, namely a pointer to a particular api's specific results struct. The impact on existing programs is minimal, especially when using a new supplied macro. Otherwise, native 'C' syntax could be used, but may feel somewhat unnatural. [ as an aside, this new approach allows us to delete ] [ all 'getsfunc' table entries & the supporting code ] Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

struct meminfo_info *info,
library: improve/normalize an interface, <MEMINFO> api This represents the refinement of this interface after the <stat> API was redesigned. We now follow a pattern of 'get' for single item retrieval & 'select' for when multiple items are desired, with just 1 function call. And again following the <stat> lead this interface now provides for delta values encompassing most items. The reason I went cuckoo nuts with those deltas is because they are essentially free. At the cost of a little RAM and just one memcpy there's no other price to be paid. Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>
