library: vmstat redesign now using 'stack' vs. 'chain' In addition to that text shown below the line which is common to several commit messages, this patch contains several minor changes with lessor impact upon the API: . Standard copyright boilerplate was added in .c file. . The #include header files are ordered alphabetically now, with all those <sys/??> types separately grouped. . The header file follows the conventions of indenting (by 4 spaces) those parameters too lengthy for 1 line. ------------------------------------------------------ . The former 'chains' have now become 'stacks' without the 'next' pointer in each result struct. The pointers initially seemed to offer some flexibility with memory allocations and benefits for the library access logic. However, user access was always via displacement and a a statically allocated chain was cumbersome to define. . An enumerator ending in '_noop' will no longer serve as a fencepost delimiter. Rather, it has become a much more important and flexible user oriented tool. Adding one or more such 'items' in any items list passed into the library becomes the means of extending the 'stack' to also include user (not just library) data. Any such data is guaranteed to never be altered by the library. . Anticipating PID support, where many different types must be represented in a result structure, we'll adopt a common naming standard. And, while not every results structure currently needs to reflect disparate types a union will be employed so the same dot qualifier ('.') can be used consistently when accessing all such data.

library: update those source files for copyright dates In addition to copyright date, the initial descriptive line was changed from a generic statement to one which reflects the specific portion of the proc/ filesystem. [ such descriptions alternate between 'declarations' ] [ (h files) & corresponding 'definitions' (c files). ] Also, a few missing copyright attributions were added.

library: normalize/standardize interface, <VMSTAT> api This interface represented a 2nd generation attempt at the opaque newlib approach. In other words, it did not involve the 1st generation 'chains'. Instead, 'stacks' were employed. But the interface wasn't user friendly. Users were required to create their own stacks, before calling 'getstack' to retrieve multiple results with a single call. Even worse, sometimes 'read' was required before calling 'get' when working with single results. So this commit represents the 3rd generation approach. We eliminate the burden of 'read' and creating stacks. Rather, beyond those standard 'new', 'ref' and 'unref' functions, we'll offer just 'get' (single result) plus a 'select' function (for multiple results in 1 stack). And along the way, this commit vastly expands the data extracted from /proc/vmstat. All values that currently exist (and their delta equivalents) are now available. Deltas were included for everything because there's no real runtime costs beyond using a little extra memory. The only problem is a lack of documentation for all of those fields, as is reflected in the references below. Oh well, maybe someday someone will dig through kernel sources & finally plug that rather large document gap.

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. Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

library: refactored some header file items and origins This commit is intended as a refinement of the patches mentioned below, where origins/sources of newlib items were added to the header files for user documentation. However, if those additions are to be truly effective, along with kernel documentation (where available), the following prerequisites must also have been satisfied: . our identifiers closely align with linux field names . our derived items are documented or self-documenting Satisfying those prerequisites prompted this patch and for these changes, kernel sources were emphasized over available documentation (shame on me, it should always have been so). And, while some 'new' fields were found to be conditional, they were included unconditionally.

library: normalize/standardize interface, <VMSTAT> api This interface represented a 2nd generation attempt at the opaque newlib approach. In other words, it did not involve the 1st generation 'chains'. Instead, 'stacks' were employed. But the interface wasn't user friendly. Users were required to create their own stacks, before calling 'getstack' to retrieve multiple results with a single call. Even worse, sometimes 'read' was required before calling 'get' when working with single results. So this commit represents the 3rd generation approach. We eliminate the burden of 'read' and creating stacks. Rather, beyond those standard 'new', 'ref' and 'unref' functions, we'll offer just 'get' (single result) plus a 'select' function (for multiple results in 1 stack). And along the way, this commit vastly expands the data extracted from /proc/vmstat. All values that currently exist (and their delta equivalents) are now available. Deltas were included for everything because there's no real runtime costs beyond using a little extra memory. The only problem is a lack of documentation for all of those fields, as is reflected in the references below. Oh well, maybe someday someone will dig through kernel sources & finally plug that rather large document gap.

library: refactored some header file items and origins This commit is intended as a refinement of the patches mentioned below, where origins/sources of newlib items were added to the header files for user documentation. However, if those additions are to be truly effective, along with kernel documentation (where available), the following prerequisites must also have been satisfied: . our identifiers closely align with linux field names . our derived items are documented or self-documenting Satisfying those prerequisites prompted this patch and for these changes, kernel sources were emphasized over available documentation (shame on me, it should always have been so). And, while some 'new' fields were found to be conditional, they were included unconditionally.

More significantly, those 'SLABNODE' guys were renamed to 'SLAB' since they concern individual caches and the concept of 'nodes' is really an implementation detail. Also, several enumerators were changed to more closely agree with official slabinfo(5) documentation referred to in what we're treating as a base document: proc(5).

library: normalize/standardize interface, <VMSTAT> api This interface represented a 2nd generation attempt at the opaque newlib approach. In other words, it did not involve the 1st generation 'chains'. Instead, 'stacks' were employed. But the interface wasn't user friendly. Users were required to create their own stacks, before calling 'getstack' to retrieve multiple results with a single call. Even worse, sometimes 'read' was required before calling 'get' when working with single results. So this commit represents the 3rd generation approach. We eliminate the burden of 'read' and creating stacks. Rather, beyond those standard 'new', 'ref' and 'unref' functions, we'll offer just 'get' (single result) plus a 'select' function (for multiple results in 1 stack). And along the way, this commit vastly expands the data extracted from /proc/vmstat. All values that currently exist (and their delta equivalents) are now available. Deltas were included for everything because there's no real runtime costs beyond using a little extra memory. The only problem is a lack of documentation for all of those fields, as is reflected in the references below. Oh well, maybe someday someone will dig through kernel sources & finally plug that rather large document gap.

library: refactored some header file items and origins This commit is intended as a refinement of the patches mentioned below, where origins/sources of newlib items were added to the header files for user documentation. However, if those additions are to be truly effective, along with kernel documentation (where available), the following prerequisites must also have been satisfied: . our identifiers closely align with linux field names . our derived items are documented or self-documenting Satisfying those prerequisites prompted this patch and for these changes, kernel sources were emphasized over available documentation (shame on me, it should always have been so). And, while some 'new' fields were found to be conditional, they were included unconditionally.

library: normalize/standardize interface, <VMSTAT> api This interface represented a 2nd generation attempt at the opaque newlib approach. In other words, it did not involve the 1st generation 'chains'. Instead, 'stacks' were employed. But the interface wasn't user friendly. Users were required to create their own stacks, before calling 'getstack' to retrieve multiple results with a single call. Even worse, sometimes 'read' was required before calling 'get' when working with single results. So this commit represents the 3rd generation approach. We eliminate the burden of 'read' and creating stacks. Rather, beyond those standard 'new', 'ref' and 'unref' functions, we'll offer just 'get' (single result) plus a 'select' function (for multiple results in 1 stack). And along the way, this commit vastly expands the data extracted from /proc/vmstat. All values that currently exist (and their delta equivalents) are now available. Deltas were included for everything because there's no real runtime costs beyond using a little extra memory. The only problem is a lack of documentation for all of those fields, as is reflected in the references below. Oh well, maybe someday someone will dig through kernel sources & finally plug that rather large document gap.

library: refactored some header file items and origins This commit is intended as a refinement of the patches mentioned below, where origins/sources of newlib items were added to the header files for user documentation. However, if those additions are to be truly effective, along with kernel documentation (where available), the following prerequisites must also have been satisfied: . our identifiers closely align with linux field names . our derived items are documented or self-documenting Satisfying those prerequisites prompted this patch and for these changes, kernel sources were emphasized over available documentation (shame on me, it should always have been so). And, while some 'new' fields were found to be conditional, they were included unconditionally. These changes appear more extensive than they actually need be since I have attempted to enforce some spacing conventions. So, I've summarize the significant things in the sections that follow. For a proper perspective, use: 'git diff --ignore-space-change' (good as alias). ___________________________________________ <PIDS> api This api is unique in that there exists many different file/directory origins subordinate to /proc/<pid>. And our item identifiers are sometimes coerced so as to be able to group related or similar enumerators together. So, users needed more help relating our identifiers to an actual documented field. Thus, we will now also add the field names as with 'stat: delayacct_blkio_ticks'. Each item ending with a '_C' now consistently includes both the parent's count/time plus waited for children. That 'RTPRIO' guy was renamed/relocated as PRIORITY_RT since its original name is an implementation artifact. ___________________________________________ <STAT> api The only api change was to correct a typo ('dervied'). _________________________________________ <VMSTAT> api Even ignoring white space, this interface received the largest number of changes. Mostly, this was because of deficiencies in the proc(5) documentation. Recall that this documentation already sorely lacks any substance. Usually, just kernel releases are noted, not contents. When compared to kernel source, that proc(5) contained many non-existent fields and also omitted many others. ________________________________________ <MEMINFO> api Sadly, with this api many of the changes were simply a correction of some earlier 'human error' where several fields where hashed then tracked but never represented with an item enumerator in this meminfo.h header file. _______________________________________ <SLABINFO> api The 'SLABS' (summary) & 'SLABNODE' items were reversed since the former are derived from the separate caches.

When compared to kernel source, that proc(5) contained many non-existent fields and also omitted many others. ________________________________________ <MEMINFO> api Sadly, with this api many of the changes were simply a correction of some earlier 'human error' where several fields where hashed then tracked but never represented with an item enumerator in this meminfo.h header file. _______________________________________ <SLABINFO> api The 'SLABS' (summary) & 'SLABNODE' items were reversed since the former are derived from the separate caches. More significantly, those 'SLABNODE' guys were renamed to 'SLAB' since they concern individual caches and the concept of 'nodes' is really an implementation detail. Also, several enumerators were changed to more closely agree with official slabinfo(5) documentation referred to in what we're treating as a base document: proc(5). Lastly, while those 'SLABS' items are solely a product of our library and not represented in slabinfo(5), the names attempt to parallel those found as 'SLAB' items. ______________________________________ <DISKSTATS> api One enumeration identifier was changed so as to better reflect its relationship to that actual documentation: 'Documentation/iostats.txt', as referenced in proc(5).

library: normalize/standardize interface, <VMSTAT> api This interface represented a 2nd generation attempt at the opaque newlib approach.

We eliminate the burden of 'read' and creating stacks.

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: <VMSTAT> api, change in the '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.

library: refine support for multiple concurrent access Our new library's now well protected against potential problems which arise when a multi-threaded application opens more than one context within the same API at the same time. However, with a single-threaded application designed along those same lines, some problems remain. So, to avoid potential corruption of some data (which was classified as local 'static __thread') from those single-threaded designs, we'll move several variables to the info structure itself and remove the '__thread' qualifier. Now they're protected against both designs.

library: minimize the use of 'cleanup_stacks' routines Some parts of our newlib implementation are the result of functions which have been propagated from module to module. In particular, those 'cleanup_stacks' routines are all similar & likely originated in the <pids> api. In that interface there was a need to free dynamically acquired memory before the result structure was reused to satisfy subsequent 'get', 'select' or 'reap' calls. This, in turn, led to a concept of 'dirty' stacks with the need to call one of two 'cleanup_stack' functions. None of the remaining interfaces deal with such memory yet they each had their own 'cleanup_stack' functions. Those functions were responsible for resetting each of the result unions to zero, excluding any 'noop' items. The bottom line is that for all interfaces, repetitive calls would require iterating through the stack(s) two separate times: once to 'cleanup' another to 'assign'. With this commit we will reduce iterations to just the 'assign' routine. A reset to zero will be accomplished in the 'extra' item set routine (which is the only one actually requiring any reset). All other items will be reinitialized automatically by a new current set value or upon reallocation when an items compliment changes. In the <pids> interface, any freeing of dynamic memory could have been accomplished by adding that 'freefunc' check to the 'assign' function. However, that requires an Item_table test with every item. Instead, we'll now satisfy such needs as the very first step in those set functions responsible for dynamically acquired memory. [ the <pids> api retains 2 'cleanup_stack' functions ] [ to accommodate stack(s) 'reset' & to serve 'unref' ] Lastly, all the 'itemize_stack' functions were tweaked by eliminating an unnecessary initialization of result unions. That objective was already accomplished by the calloc() in a 'stacks_alloc' function or the remaining 'cleanup_stack' routine found in the <pids> interface.

library: refactored some header file items and origins This commit is intended as a refinement of the patches mentioned below, where origins/sources of newlib items were added to the header files for user documentation. However, if those additions are to be truly effective, along with kernel documentation (where available), the following prerequisites must also have been satisfied: . our identifiers closely align with linux field names . our derived items are documented or self-documenting Satisfying those prerequisites prompted this patch and for these changes, kernel sources were emphasized over available documentation (shame on me, it should always have been so). And, while some 'new' fields were found to be conditional, they were included unconditionally. These changes appear more extensive than they actually need be since I have attempted to enforce some spacing conventions. So, I've summarize the significant things in the sections that follow. For a proper perspective, use: 'git diff --ignore-space-change' (good as alias). ___________________________________________ <PIDS> api This api is unique in that there exists many different file/directory origins subordinate to /proc/<pid>. And our item identifiers are sometimes coerced so as to be able to group related or similar enumerators together. So, users needed more help relating our identifiers to an actual documented field. Thus, we will now also add the field names as with 'stat: delayacct_blkio_ticks'. Each item ending with a '_C' now consistently includes both the parent's count/time plus waited for children. That 'RTPRIO' guy was renamed/relocated as PRIORITY_RT since its original name is an implementation artifact. ___________________________________________ <STAT> api The only api change was to correct a typo ('dervied'). _________________________________________ <VMSTAT> api Even ignoring white space, this interface received the largest number of changes. Mostly, this was because of deficiencies in the proc(5) documentation. Recall that this documentation already sorely lacks any substance. Usually, just kernel releases are noted, not contents. When compared to kernel source, that proc(5) contained many non-existent fields and also omitted many others. ________________________________________ <MEMINFO> api Sadly, with this api many of the changes were simply a correction of some earlier 'human error' where several fields where hashed then tracked but never represented with an item enumerator in this meminfo.h header file. _______________________________________ <SLABINFO> api The 'SLABS' (summary) & 'SLABNODE' items were reversed since the former are derived from the separate caches. More significantly, those 'SLABNODE' guys were renamed to 'SLAB' since they concern individual caches and the concept of 'nodes' is really an implementation detail. Also, several enumerators were changed to more closely agree with official slabinfo(5) documentation referred to in what we're treating as a base document: proc(5). Lastly, while those 'SLABS' items are solely a product of our library and not represented in slabinfo(5), the names attempt to parallel those found as 'SLAB' items. ______________________________________ <DISKSTATS> api One enumeration identifier was changed so as to better reflect its relationship to that actual documentation: 'Documentation/iostats.txt', as referenced in proc(5).

library: refactored some header file items and origins This commit is intended as a refinement of the patches mentioned below, where origins/sources of newlib items were added to the header files for user documentation. However, if those additions are to be truly effective, along with kernel documentation (where available), the following prerequisites must also have been satisfied: . our identifiers closely align with linux field names . our derived items are documented or self-documenting Satisfying those prerequisites prompted this patch and for these changes, kernel sources were emphasized over available documentation (shame on me, it should always have been so). And, while some 'new' fields were found to be conditional, they were included unconditionally. These changes appear more extensive than they actually need be since I have attempted to enforce some spacing conventions. So, I've summarize the significant things in the sections that follow. For a proper perspective, use: 'git diff --ignore-space-change' (good as alias). ___________________________________________ <PIDS> api This api is unique in that there exists many different file/directory origins subordinate to /proc/<pid>. And our item identifiers are sometimes coerced so as to be able to group related or similar enumerators together. So, users needed more help relating our identifiers to an actual documented field. Thus, we will now also add the field names as with 'stat: delayacct_blkio_ticks'. Each item ending with a '_C' now consistently includes both the parent's count/time plus waited for children. That 'RTPRIO' guy was renamed/relocated as PRIORITY_RT since its original name is an implementation artifact. ___________________________________________ <STAT> api The only api change was to correct a typo ('dervied'). _________________________________________ <VMSTAT> api Even ignoring white space, this interface received the largest number of changes. Mostly, this was because of deficiencies in the proc(5) documentation. Recall that this documentation already sorely lacks any substance. Usually, just kernel releases are noted, not contents. When compared to kernel source, that proc(5) contained many non-existent fields and also omitted many others. ________________________________________ <MEMINFO> api Sadly, with this api many of the changes were simply a correction of some earlier 'human error' where several fields where hashed then tracked but never represented with an item enumerator in this meminfo.h header file. _______________________________________ <SLABINFO> api The 'SLABS' (summary) & 'SLABNODE' items were reversed since the former are derived from the separate caches. More significantly, those 'SLABNODE' guys were renamed to 'SLAB' since they concern individual caches and the concept of 'nodes' is really an implementation detail. Also, several enumerators were changed to more closely agree with official slabinfo(5) documentation referred to in what we're treating as a base document: proc(5). Lastly, while those 'SLABS' items are solely a product of our library and not represented in slabinfo(5), the names attempt to parallel those found as 'SLAB' items. ______________________________________ <DISKSTATS> api One enumeration identifier was changed so as to better reflect its relationship to that actual documentation: 'Documentation/iostats.txt', as referenced in proc(5).

library: refactored some header file items and origins This commit is intended as a refinement of the patches mentioned below, where origins/sources of newlib items were added to the header files for user documentation. However, if those additions are to be truly effective, along with kernel documentation (where available), the following prerequisites must also have been satisfied: . our identifiers closely align with linux field names . our derived items are documented or self-documenting Satisfying those prerequisites prompted this patch and for these changes, kernel sources were emphasized over available documentation (shame on me, it should always have been so). And, while some 'new' fields were found to be conditional, they were included unconditionally. These changes appear more extensive than they actually need be since I have attempted to enforce some spacing conventions. So, I've summarize the significant things in the sections that follow. For a proper perspective, use: 'git diff --ignore-space-change' (good as alias). ___________________________________________ <PIDS> api This api is unique in that there exists many different file/directory origins subordinate to /proc/<pid>. And our item identifiers are sometimes coerced so as to be able to group related or similar enumerators together. So, users needed more help relating our identifiers to an actual documented field. Thus, we will now also add the field names as with 'stat: delayacct_blkio_ticks'. Each item ending with a '_C' now consistently includes both the parent's count/time plus waited for children. That 'RTPRIO' guy was renamed/relocated as PRIORITY_RT since its original name is an implementation artifact. ___________________________________________ <STAT> api The only api change was to correct a typo ('dervied'). _________________________________________ <VMSTAT> api Even ignoring white space, this interface received the largest number of changes. Mostly, this was because of deficiencies in the proc(5) documentation. Recall that this documentation already sorely lacks any substance. Usually, just kernel releases are noted, not contents. When compared to kernel source, that proc(5) contained many non-existent fields and also omitted many others. ________________________________________ <MEMINFO> api Sadly, with this api many of the changes were simply a correction of some earlier 'human error' where several fields where hashed then tracked but never represented with an item enumerator in this meminfo.h header file. _______________________________________ <SLABINFO> api The 'SLABS' (summary) & 'SLABNODE' items were reversed since the former are derived from the separate caches. More significantly, those 'SLABNODE' guys were renamed to 'SLAB' since they concern individual caches and the concept of 'nodes' is really an implementation detail. Also, several enumerators were changed to more closely agree with official slabinfo(5) documentation referred to in what we're treating as a base document: proc(5). Lastly, while those 'SLABS' items are solely a product of our library and not represented in slabinfo(5), the names attempt to parallel those found as 'SLAB' items. ______________________________________ <DISKSTATS> api One enumeration identifier was changed so as to better reflect its relationship to that actual documentation: 'Documentation/iostats.txt', as referenced in proc(5).

library: refactored some header file items and origins This commit is intended as a refinement of the patches mentioned below, where origins/sources of newlib items were added to the header files for user documentation. However, if those additions are to be truly effective, along with kernel documentation (where available), the following prerequisites must also have been satisfied: . our identifiers closely align with linux field names . our derived items are documented or self-documenting Satisfying those prerequisites prompted this patch and for these changes, kernel sources were emphasized over available documentation (shame on me, it should always have been so). And, while some 'new' fields were found to be conditional, they were included unconditionally. These changes appear more extensive than they actually need be since I have attempted to enforce some spacing conventions. So, I've summarize the significant things in the sections that follow. For a proper perspective, use: 'git diff --ignore-space-change' (good as alias). ___________________________________________ <PIDS> api This api is unique in that there exists many different file/directory origins subordinate to /proc/<pid>. And our item identifiers are sometimes coerced so as to be able to group related or similar enumerators together. So, users needed more help relating our identifiers to an actual documented field. Thus, we will now also add the field names as with 'stat: delayacct_blkio_ticks'. Each item ending with a '_C' now consistently includes both the parent's count/time plus waited for children. That 'RTPRIO' guy was renamed/relocated as PRIORITY_RT since its original name is an implementation artifact. ___________________________________________ <STAT> api The only api change was to correct a typo ('dervied'). _________________________________________ <VMSTAT> api Even ignoring white space, this interface received the largest number of changes. Mostly, this was because of deficiencies in the proc(5) documentation. Recall that this documentation already sorely lacks any substance. Usually, just kernel releases are noted, not contents. When compared to kernel source, that proc(5) contained many non-existent fields and also omitted many others. ________________________________________ <MEMINFO> api Sadly, with this api many of the changes were simply a correction of some earlier 'human error' where several fields where hashed then tracked but never represented with an item enumerator in this meminfo.h header file. _______________________________________ <SLABINFO> api The 'SLABS' (summary) & 'SLABNODE' items were reversed since the former are derived from the separate caches. More significantly, those 'SLABNODE' guys were renamed to 'SLAB' since they concern individual caches and the concept of 'nodes' is really an implementation detail. Also, several enumerators were changed to more closely agree with official slabinfo(5) documentation referred to in what we're treating as a base document: proc(5). Lastly, while those 'SLABS' items are solely a product of our library and not represented in slabinfo(5), the names attempt to parallel those found as 'SLAB' items. ______________________________________ <DISKSTATS> api One enumeration identifier was changed so as to better reflect its relationship to that actual documentation: 'Documentation/iostats.txt', as referenced in proc(5). Reference(s): . 12/2018, item origins added (and commit msg history) commit 96d59cbf46b3ff687bd29fad4708074a0e1cea14 . 01/2019, <stat> origins tweaked commit 201e816b26ddaccc923ec40977c92037cdd0c34e Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

HST_set(DELTA_PGSTEAL_FILE, pgsteal_file)
library: refactored some header file items and origins This commit is intended as a refinement of the patches mentioned below, where origins/sources of newlib items were added to the header files for user documentation. However, if those additions are to be truly effective, along with kernel documentation (where available), the following prerequisites must also have been satisfied: . our identifiers closely align with linux field names . our derived items are documented or self-documenting Satisfying those prerequisites prompted this patch and for these changes, kernel sources were emphasized over available documentation (shame on me, it should always have been so). And, while some 'new' fields were found to be conditional, they were included unconditionally. These changes appear more extensive than they actually need be since I have attempted to enforce some spacing conventions. So, I've summarize the significant things in the sections that follow. For a proper perspective, use: 'git diff --ignore-space-change' (good as alias). ___________________________________________ <PIDS> api This api is unique in that there exists many different file/directory origins subordinate to /proc/<pid>. And our item identifiers are sometimes coerced so as to be able to group related or similar enumerators together. So, users needed more help relating our identifiers to an actual documented field. Thus, we will now also add the field names as with 'stat: delayacct_blkio_ticks'. Each item ending with a '_C' now consistently includes both the parent's count/time plus waited for children. That 'RTPRIO' guy was renamed/relocated as PRIORITY_RT since its original name is an implementation artifact. ___________________________________________ <STAT> api The only api change was to correct a typo ('dervied'). _________________________________________ <VMSTAT> api Even ignoring white space, this interface received the largest number of changes. Mostly, this was because of deficiencies in the proc(5) documentation. Recall that this documentation already sorely lacks any substance. Usually, just kernel releases are noted, not contents. When compared to kernel source, that proc(5) contained many non-existent fields and also omitted many others. ________________________________________ <MEMINFO> api Sadly, with this api many of the changes were simply a correction of some earlier 'human error' where several fields where hashed then tracked but never represented with an item enumerator in this meminfo.h header file. _______________________________________ <SLABINFO> api The 'SLABS' (summary) & 'SLABNODE' items were reversed since the former are derived from the separate caches. More significantly, those 'SLABNODE' guys were renamed to 'SLAB' since they concern individual caches and the concept of 'nodes' is really an implementation detail. Also, several enumerators were changed to more closely agree with official slabinfo(5) documentation referred to in what we're treating as a base document: proc(5). Lastly, while those 'SLABS' items are solely a product of our library and not represented in slabinfo(5), the names attempt to parallel those found as 'SLAB' items. ______________________________________ <DISKSTATS> api One enumeration identifier was changed so as to better reflect its relationship to that actual documentation: 'Documentation/iostats.txt', as referenced in proc(5).

library: normalize/standardize interface, <VMSTAT> api This interface represented a 2nd generation attempt at the opaque newlib approach. In other words, it did not involve the 1st generation 'chains'. Instead, 'stacks' were employed. But the interface wasn't user friendly. Users were required to create their own stacks, before calling 'getstack' to retrieve multiple results with a single call. Even worse, sometimes 'read' was required before calling 'get' when working with single results. So this commit represents the 3rd generation approach. We eliminate the burden of 'read' and creating stacks. Rather, beyond those standard 'new', 'ref' and 'unref' functions, we'll offer just 'get' (single result) plus a 'select' function (for multiple results in 1 stack). And along the way, this commit vastly expands the data extracted from /proc/vmstat. All values that currently exist (and their delta equivalents) are now available. Deltas were included for everything because there's no real runtime costs beyond using a little extra memory. The only problem is a lack of documentation for all of those fields, as is reflected in the references below. Oh well, maybe someday someone will dig through kernel sources & finally plug that rather large document gap.

Following is a summary of significant changes (if any) to each of these now upgraded 3rd gen library modules. <meminfo> ............................................ . strictly formatting/comment changes, code unaffected <pids> ............................................... . replaced a local mkSTR macro with existing STRINGIFY . added fetch narrative explaining duplicate addresses <slabinfo> ........................................... . rearranged some free logic for procps_slabinfo_unref . added fetch narrative explaining duplicate addresses <stat> ............................................... . added #define ENFORCE_LOGICAL, just as in <slabinfo> . replaced a local mkSTR macro with existing STRINGIFY . alphabetized the function declarations in the header <vmstat> ............................................. . made one coverity concession with read_vmstat_failed [ several of these changes may reflect this author's ] [ continuing pursuit of an unreasonable goal -- that ] [ of a 'perfect' (plus 'pretty') C language program! ] Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

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. Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

library: provide for validating result type references During development, we now have a means for validating that a type referenced in application code matches the actual type set by the library. The new feature can be activated through either of the following two methods: 1) ./configure CFLAGS='-DXTRA_PROCPS_DEBUG' (all pgms) 2) an #include <proc/xtra-procps-debug.h> (single pgm) [ in the future, one could add a formal configure.ac ] [ provision. but for now a manual approach is safer. ] Lastly, for any module which provides a sort function, the handling for both 'noop' & 'extra' enumerators was made consistent. Now, 'noop' is not sorted and 'extra' will be sorted as that module's widest supported type. Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

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. Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

#ifdef ITEMTABLE_DEBUG
int enumnumb; // enumerator (must match position!)
char *enum2str; // enumerator name as a char* string
#endif
library: provide for validating result type references During development, we now have a means for validating that a type referenced in application code matches the actual type set by the library. The new feature can be activated through either of the following two methods: 1) ./configure CFLAGS='-DXTRA_PROCPS_DEBUG' (all pgms) 2) an #include <proc/xtra-procps-debug.h> (single pgm) [ in the future, one could add a formal configure.ac ] [ provision. but for now a manual approach is safer. ] Lastly, for any module which provides a sort function, the handling for both 'noop' & 'extra' enumerators was made consistent. Now, 'noop' is not sorted and 'extra' will be sorted as that module's widest supported type. Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

library: normalize/standardize interface, <VMSTAT> api This interface represented a 2nd generation attempt at the opaque newlib approach. In other words, it did not involve the 1st generation 'chains'. Instead, 'stacks' were employed. But the interface wasn't user friendly. Users were required to create their own stacks, before calling 'getstack' to retrieve multiple results with a single call. Even worse, sometimes 'read' was required before calling 'get' when working with single results. So this commit represents the 3rd generation approach. We eliminate the burden of 'read' and creating stacks. Rather, beyond those standard 'new', 'ref' and 'unref' functions, we'll offer just 'get' (single result) plus a 'select' function (for multiple results in 1 stack). And along the way, this commit vastly expands the data extracted from /proc/vmstat. All values that currently exist (and their delta equivalents) are now available. Deltas were included for everything because there's no real runtime costs beyond using a little extra memory. The only problem is a lack of documentation for all of those fields, as is reflected in the references below. Oh well, maybe someday someone will dig through kernel sources & finally plug that rather large document gap.

library: refactored some header file items and origins This commit is intended as a refinement of the patches mentioned below, where origins/sources of newlib items were added to the header files for user documentation. However, if those additions are to be truly effective, along with kernel documentation (where available), the following prerequisites must also have been satisfied: . our identifiers closely align with linux field names . our derived items are documented or self-documenting Satisfying those prerequisites prompted this patch and for these changes, kernel sources were emphasized over available documentation (shame on me, it should always have been so). And, while some 'new' fields were found to be conditional, they were included unconditionally. These changes appear more extensive than they actually need be since I have attempted to enforce some spacing conventions. So, I've summarize the significant things in the sections that follow. For a proper perspective, use: 'git diff --ignore-space-change' (good as alias). ___________________________________________ <PIDS> api This api is unique in that there exists many different file/directory origins subordinate to /proc/<pid>. And our item identifiers are sometimes coerced so as to be able to group related or similar enumerators together. So, users needed more help relating our identifiers to an actual documented field. Thus, we will now also add the field names as with 'stat: delayacct_blkio_ticks'. Each item ending with a '_C' now consistently includes both the parent's count/time plus waited for children. That 'RTPRIO' guy was renamed/relocated as PRIORITY_RT since its original name is an implementation artifact. ___________________________________________ <STAT> api The only api change was to correct a typo ('dervied'). _________________________________________ <VMSTAT> api Even ignoring white space, this interface received the largest number of changes. Mostly, this was because of deficiencies in the proc(5) documentation. Recall that this documentation already sorely lacks any substance. Usually, just kernel releases are noted, not contents. When compared to kernel source, that proc(5) contained many non-existent fields and also omitted many others. ________________________________________ <MEMINFO> api Sadly, with this api many of the changes were simply a correction of some earlier 'human error' where several fields where hashed then tracked but never represented with an item enumerator in this meminfo.h header file. _______________________________________ <SLABINFO> api The 'SLABS' (summary) & 'SLABNODE' items were reversed since the former are derived from the separate caches. More significantly, those 'SLABNODE' guys were renamed to 'SLAB' since they concern individual caches and the concept of 'nodes' is really an implementation detail. Also, several enumerators were changed to more closely agree with official slabinfo(5) documentation referred to in what we're treating as a base document: proc(5). Lastly, while those 'SLABS' items are solely a product of our library and not represented in slabinfo(5), the names attempt to parallel those found as 'SLAB' items. ______________________________________ <DISKSTATS> api One enumeration identifier was changed so as to better reflect its relationship to that actual documentation: 'Documentation/iostats.txt', as referenced in proc(5).

library: refactored some header file items and origins This commit is intended as a refinement of the patches mentioned below, where origins/sources of newlib items were added to the header files for user documentation. However, if those additions are to be truly effective, along with kernel documentation (where available), the following prerequisites must also have been satisfied: . our identifiers closely align with linux field names . our derived items are documented or self-documenting Satisfying those prerequisites prompted this patch and for these changes, kernel sources were emphasized over available documentation (shame on me, it should always have been so). And, while some 'new' fields were found to be conditional, they were included unconditionally. These changes appear more extensive than they actually need be since I have attempted to enforce some spacing conventions. So, I've summarize the significant things in the sections that follow. For a proper perspective, use: 'git diff --ignore-space-change' (good as alias). ___________________________________________ <PIDS> api This api is unique in that there exists many different file/directory origins subordinate to /proc/<pid>. And our item identifiers are sometimes coerced so as to be able to group related or similar enumerators together. So, users needed more help relating our identifiers to an actual documented field. Thus, we will now also add the field names as with 'stat: delayacct_blkio_ticks'. Each item ending with a '_C' now consistently includes both the parent's count/time plus waited for children. That 'RTPRIO' guy was renamed/relocated as PRIORITY_RT since its original name is an implementation artifact. ___________________________________________ <STAT> api The only api change was to correct a typo ('dervied'). _________________________________________ <VMSTAT> api Even ignoring white space, this interface received the largest number of changes. Mostly, this was because of deficiencies in the proc(5) documentation. Recall that this documentation already sorely lacks any substance. Usually, just kernel releases are noted, not contents. When compared to kernel source, that proc(5) contained many non-existent fields and also omitted many others. ________________________________________ <MEMINFO> api Sadly, with this api many of the changes were simply a correction of some earlier 'human error' where several fields where hashed then tracked but never represented with an item enumerator in this meminfo.h header file. _______________________________________ <SLABINFO> api The 'SLABS' (summary) & 'SLABNODE' items were reversed since the former are derived from the separate caches. More significantly, those 'SLABNODE' guys were renamed to 'SLAB' since they concern individual caches and the concept of 'nodes' is really an implementation detail. Also, several enumerators were changed to more closely agree with official slabinfo(5) documentation referred to in what we're treating as a base document: proc(5). Lastly, while those 'SLABS' items are solely a product of our library and not represented in slabinfo(5), the names attempt to parallel those found as 'SLAB' items. ______________________________________ <DISKSTATS> api One enumeration identifier was changed so as to better reflect its relationship to that actual documentation: 'Documentation/iostats.txt', as referenced in proc(5).

library: refactored some header file items and origins This commit is intended as a refinement of the patches mentioned below, where origins/sources of newlib items were added to the header files for user documentation. However, if those additions are to be truly effective, along with kernel documentation (where available), the following prerequisites must also have been satisfied: . our identifiers closely align with linux field names . our derived items are documented or self-documenting Satisfying those prerequisites prompted this patch and for these changes, kernel sources were emphasized over available documentation (shame on me, it should always have been so). And, while some 'new' fields were found to be conditional, they were included unconditionally. These changes appear more extensive than they actually need be since I have attempted to enforce some spacing conventions. So, I've summarize the significant things in the sections that follow. For a proper perspective, use: 'git diff --ignore-space-change' (good as alias). ___________________________________________ <PIDS> api This api is unique in that there exists many different file/directory origins subordinate to /proc/<pid>. And our item identifiers are sometimes coerced so as to be able to group related or similar enumerators together. So, users needed more help relating our identifiers to an actual documented field. Thus, we will now also add the field names as with 'stat: delayacct_blkio_ticks'. Each item ending with a '_C' now consistently includes both the parent's count/time plus waited for children. That 'RTPRIO' guy was renamed/relocated as PRIORITY_RT since its original name is an implementation artifact. ___________________________________________ <STAT> api The only api change was to correct a typo ('dervied'). _________________________________________ <VMSTAT> api Even ignoring white space, this interface received the largest number of changes. Mostly, this was because of deficiencies in the proc(5) documentation. Recall that this documentation already sorely lacks any substance. Usually, just kernel releases are noted, not contents. When compared to kernel source, that proc(5) contained many non-existent fields and also omitted many others. ________________________________________ <MEMINFO> api Sadly, with this api many of the changes were simply a correction of some earlier 'human error' where several fields where hashed then tracked but never represented with an item enumerator in this meminfo.h header file. _______________________________________ <SLABINFO> api The 'SLABS' (summary) & 'SLABNODE' items were reversed since the former are derived from the separate caches.

library: refactored some header file items and origins This commit is intended as a refinement of the patches mentioned below, where origins/sources of newlib items were added to the header files for user documentation. However, if those additions are to be truly effective, along with kernel documentation (where available), the following prerequisites must also have been satisfied: . our identifiers closely align with linux field names . our derived items are documented or self-documenting Satisfying those prerequisites prompted this patch and for these changes, kernel sources were emphasized over available documentation (shame on me, it should always have been so). And, while some 'new' fields were found to be conditional, they were included unconditionally. These changes appear more extensive than they actually need be since I have attempted to enforce some spacing conventions. So, I've summarize the significant things in the sections that follow. For a proper perspective, use: 'git diff --ignore-space-change' (good as alias). ___________________________________________ <PIDS> api This api is unique in that there exists many different file/directory origins subordinate to /proc/<pid>. And our item identifiers are sometimes coerced so as to be able to group related or similar enumerators together. So, users needed more help relating our identifiers to an actual documented field. Thus, we will now also add the field names as with 'stat: delayacct_blkio_ticks'. Each item ending with a '_C' now consistently includes both the parent's count/time plus waited for children.

Mostly, this was because of deficiencies in the proc(5) documentation. Recall that this documentation already sorely lacks any substance. Usually, just kernel releases are noted, not contents.

library: normalize/standardize interface, <VMSTAT> api This interface represented a 2nd generation attempt at the opaque newlib approach. In other words, it did not involve the 1st generation 'chains'. Instead, 'stacks' were employed. But the interface wasn't user friendly. Users were required to create their own stacks, before calling 'getstack' to retrieve multiple results with a single call. Even worse, sometimes 'read' was required before calling 'get' when working with single results. So this commit represents the 3rd generation approach. We eliminate the burden of 'read' and creating stacks. Rather, beyond those standard 'new', 'ref' and 'unref' functions, we'll offer just 'get' (single result) plus a 'select' function (for multiple results in 1 stack). And along the way, this commit vastly expands the data extracted from /proc/vmstat. All values that currently exist (and their delta equivalents) are now available. Deltas were included for everything because there's no real runtime costs beyond using a little extra memory. The only problem is a lack of documentation for all of those fields, as is reflected in the references below. Oh well, maybe someday someone will dig through kernel sources & finally plug that rather large document gap.

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. Reference(s): . 08/2016, add new enumerators commit 09e1886c9e731f8b8c89a55d11f72f53f030b2de . 08/2020, added MAXTABLE macro commit c865b06c304e645c05eae0f5e06a1f49ea105285 . 08/2020, introduced ITEMTABLE_DEBUG commit 92d0297e1e4d5946c5b098e37c91c7e524a0eca0 Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

library: normalize/standardize interface, <VMSTAT> api This interface represented a 2nd generation attempt at the opaque newlib approach. In other words, it did not involve the 1st generation 'chains'. Instead, 'stacks' were employed. But the interface wasn't user friendly. Users were required to create their own stacks, before calling 'getstack' to retrieve multiple results with a single call. Even worse, sometimes 'read' was required before calling 'get' when working with single results. So this commit represents the 3rd generation approach. We eliminate the burden of 'read' and creating stacks. Rather, beyond those standard 'new', 'ref' and 'unref' functions, we'll offer just 'get' (single result) plus a 'select' function (for multiple results in 1 stack). And along the way, this commit vastly expands the data extracted from /proc/vmstat. All values that currently exist (and their delta equivalents) are now available. Deltas were included for everything because there's no real runtime costs beyond using a little extra memory. The only problem is a lack of documentation for all of those fields, as is reflected in the references below.

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: 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: normalize/standardize interface, <VMSTAT> api This interface represented a 2nd generation attempt at the opaque newlib approach. In other words, it did not involve the 1st generation 'chains'. Instead, 'stacks' were employed. But the interface wasn't user friendly. Users were required to create their own stacks, before calling 'getstack' to retrieve multiple results with a single call. Even worse, sometimes 'read' was required before calling 'get' when working with single results. So this commit represents the 3rd generation approach. We eliminate the burden of 'read' and creating stacks. Rather, beyond those standard 'new', 'ref' and 'unref' functions, we'll offer just 'get' (single result) plus a 'select' function (for multiple results in 1 stack). And along the way, this commit vastly expands the data extracted from /proc/vmstat. All values that currently exist (and their delta equivalents) are now available. Deltas were included for everything because there's no real runtime costs beyond using a little extra memory.

However, if those additions are to be truly effective, along with kernel documentation (where available), the following prerequisites must also have been satisfied: . our identifiers closely align with linux field names . our derived items are documented or self-documenting Satisfying those prerequisites prompted this patch and for these changes, kernel sources were emphasized over available documentation (shame on me, it should always have been so). And, while some 'new' fields were found to be conditional, they were included unconditionally. These changes appear more extensive than they actually need be since I have attempted to enforce some spacing conventions. So, I've summarize the significant things in the sections that follow. For a proper perspective, use: 'git diff --ignore-space-change' (good as alias). ___________________________________________ <PIDS> api This api is unique in that there exists many different file/directory origins subordinate to /proc/<pid>. And our item identifiers are sometimes coerced so as to be able to group related or similar enumerators together. So, users needed more help relating our identifiers to an actual documented field. Thus, we will now also add the field names as with 'stat: delayacct_blkio_ticks'. Each item ending with a '_C' now consistently includes both the parent's count/time plus waited for children. That 'RTPRIO' guy was renamed/relocated as PRIORITY_RT since its original name is an implementation artifact. ___________________________________________ <STAT> api The only api change was to correct a typo ('dervied'). _________________________________________ <VMSTAT> api Even ignoring white space, this interface received the largest number of changes. Mostly, this was because of deficiencies in the proc(5) documentation. Recall that this documentation already sorely lacks any substance. Usually, just kernel releases are noted, not contents. When compared to kernel source, that proc(5) contained many non-existent fields and also omitted many others. ________________________________________ <MEMINFO> api Sadly, with this api many of the changes were simply a correction of some earlier 'human error' where several fields where hashed then tracked but never represented with an item enumerator in this meminfo.h header file. _______________________________________ <SLABINFO> api The 'SLABS' (summary) & 'SLABNODE' items were reversed since the former are derived from the separate caches. More significantly, those 'SLABNODE' guys were renamed to 'SLAB' since they concern individual caches and the concept of 'nodes' is really an implementation detail. Also, several enumerators were changed to more closely agree with official slabinfo(5) documentation referred to in what we're treating as a base document: proc(5). Lastly, while those 'SLABS' items are solely a product of our library and not represented in slabinfo(5), the names attempt to parallel those found as 'SLAB' items. ______________________________________ <DISKSTATS> api One enumeration identifier was changed so as to better reflect its relationship to that actual documentation: 'Documentation/iostats.txt', as referenced in proc(5).

library: normalize/standardize interface, <VMSTAT> api This interface represented a 2nd generation attempt at the opaque newlib approach. In other words, it did not involve the 1st generation 'chains'. Instead, 'stacks' were employed. But the interface wasn't user friendly. Users were required to create their own stacks, before calling 'getstack' to retrieve multiple results with a single call. Even worse, sometimes 'read' was required before calling 'get' when working with single results. So this commit represents the 3rd generation approach. We eliminate the burden of 'read' and creating stacks. Rather, beyond those standard 'new', 'ref' and 'unref' functions, we'll offer just 'get' (single result) plus a 'select' function (for multiple results in 1 stack). And along the way, this commit vastly expands the data extracted from /proc/vmstat. All values that currently exist (and their delta equivalents) are now available. Deltas were included for everything because there's no real runtime costs beyond using a little extra memory. The only problem is a lack of documentation for all of those fields, as is reflected in the references below. Oh well, maybe someday someone will dig through kernel sources & finally plug that rather large document gap.

library: refactored some header file items and origins This commit is intended as a refinement of the patches mentioned below, where origins/sources of newlib items were added to the header files for user documentation. However, if those additions are to be truly effective, along with kernel documentation (where available), the following prerequisites must also have been satisfied: . our identifiers closely align with linux field names . our derived items are documented or self-documenting Satisfying those prerequisites prompted this patch and for these changes, kernel sources were emphasized over available documentation (shame on me, it should always have been so). And, while some 'new' fields were found to be conditional, they were included unconditionally. These changes appear more extensive than they actually need be since I have attempted to enforce some spacing conventions. So, I've summarize the significant things in the sections that follow. For a proper perspective, use: 'git diff --ignore-space-change' (good as alias). ___________________________________________ <PIDS> api This api is unique in that there exists many different file/directory origins subordinate to /proc/<pid>. And our item identifiers are sometimes coerced so as to be able to group related or similar enumerators together. So, users needed more help relating our identifiers to an actual documented field. Thus, we will now also add the field names as with 'stat: delayacct_blkio_ticks'. Each item ending with a '_C' now consistently includes both the parent's count/time plus waited for children. That 'RTPRIO' guy was renamed/relocated as PRIORITY_RT since its original name is an implementation artifact. ___________________________________________ <STAT> api The only api change was to correct a typo ('dervied'). _________________________________________ <VMSTAT> api Even ignoring white space, this interface received the largest number of changes. Mostly, this was because of deficiencies in the proc(5) documentation. Recall that this documentation already sorely lacks any substance. Usually, just kernel releases are noted, not contents. When compared to kernel source, that proc(5) contained many non-existent fields and also omitted many others. ________________________________________ <MEMINFO> api Sadly, with this api many of the changes were simply a correction of some earlier 'human error' where several fields where hashed then tracked but never represented with an item enumerator in this meminfo.h header file. _______________________________________ <SLABINFO> api The 'SLABS' (summary) & 'SLABNODE' items were reversed since the former are derived from the separate caches. More significantly, those 'SLABNODE' guys were renamed to 'SLAB' since they concern individual caches and the concept of 'nodes' is really an implementation detail. Also, several enumerators were changed to more closely agree with official slabinfo(5) documentation referred to in what we're treating as a base document: proc(5). Lastly, while those 'SLABS' items are solely a product of our library and not represented in slabinfo(5), the names attempt to parallel those found as 'SLAB' items. ______________________________________ <DISKSTATS> api One enumeration identifier was changed so as to better reflect its relationship to that actual documentation: 'Documentation/iostats.txt', as referenced in proc(5).

library: normalize/standardize interface, <VMSTAT> api This interface represented a 2nd generation attempt at the opaque newlib approach. In other words, it did not involve the 1st generation 'chains'. Instead, 'stacks' were employed. But the interface wasn't user friendly. Users were required to create their own stacks, before calling 'getstack' to retrieve multiple results with a single call. Even worse, sometimes 'read' was required before calling 'get' when working with single results. So this commit represents the 3rd generation approach. We eliminate the burden of 'read' and creating stacks. Rather, beyond those standard 'new', 'ref' and 'unref' functions, we'll offer just 'get' (single result) plus a 'select' function (for multiple results in 1 stack). And along the way, this commit vastly expands the data extracted from /proc/vmstat. All values that currently exist (and their delta equivalents) are now available. Deltas were included for everything because there's no real runtime costs beyond using a little extra memory. The only problem is a lack of documentation for all of those fields, as is reflected in the references below. Oh well, maybe someday someone will dig through kernel sources & finally plug that rather large document gap.

However, if those additions are to be truly effective, along with kernel documentation (where available), the following prerequisites must also have been satisfied: . our identifiers closely align with linux field names . our derived items are documented or self-documenting Satisfying those prerequisites prompted this patch and for these changes, kernel sources were emphasized over available documentation (shame on me, it should always have been so).

htVAL(thp_fault_fallback_charge)
library: refactored some header file items and origins This commit is intended as a refinement of the patches mentioned below, where origins/sources of newlib items were added to the header files for user documentation. However, if those additions are to be truly effective, along with kernel documentation (where available), the following prerequisites must also have been satisfied: . our identifiers closely align with linux field names . our derived items are documented or self-documenting Satisfying those prerequisites prompted this patch and for these changes, kernel sources were emphasized over available documentation (shame on me, it should always have been so). And, while some 'new' fields were found to be conditional, they were included unconditionally. These changes appear more extensive than they actually need be since I have attempted to enforce some spacing conventions. So, I've summarize the significant things in the sections that follow. For a proper perspective, use: 'git diff --ignore-space-change' (good as alias). ___________________________________________ <PIDS> api This api is unique in that there exists many different file/directory origins subordinate to /proc/<pid>. And our item identifiers are sometimes coerced so as to be able to group related or similar enumerators together. So, users needed more help relating our identifiers to an actual documented field. Thus, we will now also add the field names as with 'stat: delayacct_blkio_ticks'. Each item ending with a '_C' now consistently includes both the parent's count/time plus waited for children. That 'RTPRIO' guy was renamed/relocated as PRIORITY_RT since its original name is an implementation artifact. ___________________________________________ <STAT> api The only api change was to correct a typo ('dervied'). _________________________________________ <VMSTAT> api Even ignoring white space, this interface received the largest number of changes. Mostly, this was because of deficiencies in the proc(5) documentation. Recall that this documentation already sorely lacks any substance. Usually, just kernel releases are noted, not contents. When compared to kernel source, that proc(5) contained many non-existent fields and also omitted many others. ________________________________________ <MEMINFO> api Sadly, with this api many of the changes were simply a correction of some earlier 'human error' where several fields where hashed then tracked but never represented with an item enumerator in this meminfo.h header file. _______________________________________ <SLABINFO> api The 'SLABS' (summary) & 'SLABNODE' items were reversed since the former are derived from the separate caches. More significantly, those 'SLABNODE' guys were renamed to 'SLAB' since they concern individual caches and the concept of 'nodes' is really an implementation detail. Also, several enumerators were changed to more closely agree with official slabinfo(5) documentation referred to in what we're treating as a base document: proc(5). Lastly, while those 'SLABS' items are solely a product of our library and not represented in slabinfo(5), the names attempt to parallel those found as 'SLAB' items. ______________________________________ <DISKSTATS> api One enumeration identifier was changed so as to better reflect its relationship to that actual documentation: 'Documentation/iostats.txt', as referenced in proc(5).

library: normalize/standardize interface, <VMSTAT> api This interface represented a 2nd generation attempt at the opaque newlib approach. In other words, it did not involve the 1st generation 'chains'. Instead, 'stacks' were employed. But the interface wasn't user friendly. Users were required to create their own stacks, before calling 'getstack' to retrieve multiple results with a single call. Even worse, sometimes 'read' was required before calling 'get' when working with single results. So this commit represents the 3rd generation approach. We eliminate the burden of 'read' and creating stacks. Rather, beyond those standard 'new', 'ref' and 'unref' functions, we'll offer just 'get' (single result) plus a 'select' function (for multiple results in 1 stack). And along the way, this commit vastly expands the data extracted from /proc/vmstat. All values that currently exist (and their delta equivalents) are now available.

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.

In other words, it did not involve the 1st generation 'chains'. Instead, 'stacks' were employed. But the interface wasn't user friendly. Users were required to create their own stacks, before calling 'getstack' to retrieve multiple results with a single call. Even worse, sometimes 'read' was required before calling 'get' when working with single results. So this commit represents the 3rd generation approach. We eliminate the burden of 'read' and creating stacks. Rather, beyond those standard 'new', 'ref' and 'unref' functions, we'll offer just 'get' (single result) plus a 'select' function (for multiple results in 1 stack). And along the way, this commit vastly expands the data extracted from /proc/vmstat. All values that currently exist (and their delta equivalents) are now available. Deltas were included for everything because there's no real runtime costs beyond using a little extra memory. The only problem is a lack of documentation for all of those fields, as is reflected in the references below. Oh well, maybe someday someone will dig through kernel sources & finally plug that rather large document gap.

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. Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

library: the uref functions were insufficiently robust The earlier attempt at protecting these functions from already freed memory worked just fine until the memory was, in fact, reused by the OS. At that point, the ref count would most likely fail an existing a test for 0. So this commit will take control of the 'info' pointer and force it to NULL when a reference count reaches 0. Plus, since it makes little sense returning an address that a caller already has, henceforth we will return a reference count out of the 'ref' and 'unref functions.

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>

Rather, beyond those standard 'new', 'ref' and 'unref' functions, we'll offer just 'get' (single result) plus a 'select' function (for multiple results in 1 stack). And along the way, this commit vastly expands the data extracted from /proc/vmstat. All values that currently exist (and their delta equivalents) are now available. Deltas were included for everything because there's no real runtime costs beyond using a little extra memory.

library: refine support for multiple concurrent access Our new library's now well protected against potential problems which arise when a multi-threaded application opens more than one context within the same API at the same time. However, with a single-threaded application designed along those same lines, some problems remain. So, to avoid potential corruption of some data (which was classified as local 'static __thread') from those single-threaded designs, we'll move several variables to the info structure itself and remove the '__thread' qualifier. Now they're protected against both designs.

library: <VMSTAT> api, change in the '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.

Plus the following additional modifications were made: . the stacks_alloc prologue was generalized plus added to a couple of modules where it had not yet propagated . a couple of the '// end ...' comments were corrected . some functions have been formally tagged as 'inline' Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>

vmstat_extents_free_all(info);
library: vmstat redesign now using 'stack' vs. 'chain' In addition to that text shown below the line which is common to several commit messages, this patch contains several minor changes with lessor impact upon the API: . Standard copyright boilerplate was added in .c file. . The #include header files are ordered alphabetically now, with all those <sys/??> types separately grouped. . The header file follows the conventions of indenting (by 4 spaces) those parameters too lengthy for 1 line. ------------------------------------------------------ . The former 'chains' have now become 'stacks' without the 'next' pointer in each result struct. The pointers initially seemed to offer some flexibility with memory allocations and benefits for the library access logic. However, user access was always via displacement and a a statically allocated chain was cumbersome to define. . An enumerator ending in '_noop' will no longer serve as a fencepost delimiter. Rather, it has become a much more important and flexible user oriented tool. Adding one or more such 'items' in any items list passed into the library becomes the means of extending the 'stack' to also include user (not just library) data. Any such data is guaranteed to never be altered by the library. . Anticipating PID support, where many different types must be represented in a result structure, we'll adopt a common naming standard. And, while not every results structure currently needs to reflect disparate types a union will be employed so the same dot qualifier ('.') can be used consistently when accessing all such data.

library: normalize/standardize interface, <VMSTAT> api This interface represented a 2nd generation attempt at the opaque newlib approach. In other words, it did not involve the 1st generation 'chains'. Instead, 'stacks' were employed. But the interface wasn't user friendly. Users were required to create their own stacks, before calling 'getstack' to retrieve multiple results with a single call. Even worse, sometimes 'read' was required before calling 'get' when working with single results. So this commit represents the 3rd generation approach. We eliminate the burden of 'read' and creating stacks. Rather, beyond those standard 'new', 'ref' and 'unref' functions, we'll offer just 'get' (single result) plus a 'select' function (for multiple results in 1 stack). And along the way, this commit vastly expands the data extracted from /proc/vmstat. All values that currently exist (and their delta equivalents) are now available. Deltas were included for everything because there's no real runtime costs beyond using a little extra memory. The only problem is a lack of documentation for all of those fields, as is reflected in the references below.

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'.
