98a5332de2 library: Move runtime signal count check to compile time
Since the value of number_of_signals is known at compile time, we can
 use a compile-time check instead. This also adds SIGLOST for the Hurd,
 uses the correct signal counts for the Hurd and FreeBSD, and only gives
 a compile-time warning when compiled on an unknown platform that it does
 not know whether the number of signals is correct.

55a42ae040 top: allow more flexible approach for startup defaults
Those references below offer more detail regarding the
default startup changes beginning with version 3.3.10.

It is important to remember that all such changes were
supposed to impact only new users or users who had not
saved the personal config file (via that 'W' command).
However, I introduced a bug wherein the rcfile was not
fully honored. This gave the changes a bad reputation.

That bug was corrected in release 3.3.11 but the issue
of default startup options keeps resurfacing. And it's
clear there's no consensus on what should be included.

Our --disable-modern-top configure option is of little
help since it remains an all-or-nothing approach. What
we need is an answer offering unlimited customization.
So, this commit will provide distribution packagers or
system administrators with a much more flexible way to
set their own preferred startup default configuration.

A new rcfile is being introduced: '/etc/topdefaultrc',
whose format/content is the same as a personal rcfile.
Thus once a 'proper' enterprise configuration has been
established and saved via 'W', it can be copied to the
/etc/ directory. Thereafter, startup in the absence of
a saved rcfile will use that configuration as default.

Now if a distribution packager or system administrator
wishes to expose their users to some of top's advanced
capabilities they can do so gradually. Perhaps setting
up graph mode for summary area task and memory display
while retaining the %CPU sort could be tried. Or maybe
showing colors, but better customized for a particular
terminal emulator. Such possibilities are now endless.

[ in exploiting this new capability, i hope that the ]
[ other windows (alt display mode) aren't overlooked ]

0a502adfd0 top: let's exploit the new standardized errno handling
With the library having now normalized errno handling,
perhaps it is time at least one program took advantage
of it. So, instead of printing just a message with the
programs's line number, top will now also provide that
associated errno string text, compliments of strerror.

[ with those newlib functions returning NULL, we can ]
[ use errno directly in strerror. for the ones which ]
[ yield an int, all we need do is invert such return ]
[ values before passing it to the strerror function. ]

06be33b43e library: improve and/or standardize 'errno' management
With older library logic having been modified to avoid
using those potentially deadly alloc.h routines, while
improving 'errno' handling, we're ready to standardize
and enhance newlib's approach to any potential errors.

In so doing, we'll establish the following objectives:

. . . . . . . . . . . . . functions returning an 'int'
. an error will be indicated by a negative number that
is always the inverse of some well known errno.h value

. . . . . . . . . . . functions returning an 'address'
. any error will be indicated by a NULL return pointer
with the actual reason found in the formal errno value

And, when errno is manipulated directly we will strive
to do so whenever possible within those routines which
have been declared with PROCPS_EXPORT. In other words,
in the user callable functions defined in source last.

[ But, that won't always be possible. In particular, ]
[ all the 'read_failed' functions will sometimes set ]
[ 'errno' so that they can serve callers returning a ]
[ NULL or an int without duplicating a lot of logic. ]

[ Also, that includes one subordinate function which ]
[ was called by 'read_failed' in the <slabinfo> API. ]

------------------------------------------------------
Along the way, several additional miscellaneous issues
were addressed. They're listed here now for posterity.

. the '-1' return value passed outside the library was
eliminated since it would erroneously equate to -EPERM

. the stacks_fetch functions in <diskstats> and <stat>
weren't checked for their possible minus return values

. hash create was not checked in <meminfo> or <vmstat>

. fixed 'new' function faulty parm check in <slabinfo>

18e684d65d library: eliminate all dependencies on alloc.h/alloc.c
While that old master branch library may utilize those
memory allocation functions found in the alloc module,
it was inappropriate for this newlib branch to subject
callers to a stderr message followed by an early exit.

Of course, the old libprocps offered a message handler
override provision (xalloc_err_handler) but that, too,
would seem to be inappropriate for our modern library.

[ remember the battles fought with that damn libnuma ]

So, this commit will tweak those old inherited sources
setting the stage for standardized return values/errno
settings in connection with a memory allocation error.

------------------------------------------------------
Along the way, we'll address the following miscellany:

. Completely eliminate usage of anything from alloc.h.
This, of course, entails our own error checking of the
alternative allocation calls from stdlib.h & string.h.

. Eliminate use of the strdup function where possible,
as with 'procps_uptime' and 'procps_loadavg' routines.

. Whack some obsolete code (getslabinfo) in sysinfo.c.

a02a31f7e9 top: eliminate that potential vulnerability for TOCTOU
Initially, I was going to ignore that coverity warning
CID #177876. But, since top may be running SETUID it's
best if it can be avoided instead. The fix was simple.

We'll trade the access() call for a real fopen() call.
This time-of-check-time-of-use warning should go away.
------------------------------------------------------

When XDG support was originally introduced in top, the
author made a poor choice in access(). A real question
that needed asking was 'does the file exist'. However,
the question that was asked was 'can this real user ID
or this real group ID access the file'. Then, when the
fopen() is finally issued, top would use the effective
user ID or the effective group ID to access that file.

That's what opened the potential TOCTOU vulnerability,
which was important only if top was running SUID/SGID.

a74f604441 top: make the 'utf8_proper_col' routine more efficient
This patch better exploits short-circuit evaluation in
two 'if' tests. In every case, the 1st of 2 conditions
in each 'if' test must take place but it always proves
true with each iteration for 1 of the 'if' statements.
Thus, the 2nd condition will have to be evaluated too.

By reordering 2 tests in each 'if', we can ensure that
the 2nd condition will then be tested much less often.

1bc25e920a top: correct an insidious occasional truncation buglet
With the help of our Swedish translator, hopefully the
final buglet has now been vanquished in the multi-byte
translation support. This one was a real nasty bugger.

Although it didn't occur with every terminal emulator,
occasionally random text lines were being chopped off.

As it turns out, those terminals were blameless. There
were two separate places in top's show_special routine
where potential multi-byte sequences were inadequately
addressed. Solution: exploit existing utf-8 functions.

[ it also became apparent that the translation hints ]

9ea0021070 ps: don't use '+' truncation indicator with multi-byte
The ps program generally supports multi-byte sequences
in strings representing user and group names. However,
should a multi-byte sequence span the maximum width of
a column, the '+' inserted by ps to signify truncation
will corrupt that sequence, misaligning the text line.

Unfortunately, there's insufficient info returned from

provide a robust response. So, this commit will revert
to the old standby of displaying a number when the '+'
character would've corrupted that multi-byte sequence.

1c76d8e566 top: some minor tweaks to the utf-8 multi-byte support
Translatable column headers are supposed to be limited
to no more than 7 characters, even though some columns
are wider than that or even variable width. That value
of 7 is dictated by the Fields Management screen which
will otherwise truncate a column header longer than 7.

Our new utf-8 support did not adequately deal with the
potential need for truncation of column headers should
that limit of 7 be exceeded. This patch corrects that.

b8bfa17450 top: extend multi-byte support to 'Inspection' feature
The previous commit implemented multi-byte support for
the basic top user interaction and display provisions.
This commit completes multi-byte support by addressing
that 'Inspect Other Output' feature (the 'Y' command).

Few people probably exploit this very powerful feature
which allows the perusing of any file or piped output.
And even if nobody uses 'Y', someone will stumble over
it on the help screen and try it out. Assuming top was
not built with INSP_OFFDEMO defined, they'll end up on
the screen our translators have faithfully translated.

Without this patch, such a screen would display with a
bunch of 'unprintable' characters which will then show
in the standard (less-like) way as: '^A', '<C3>', etc.
In other words, those poor screens will be a big mess!

[ this program can even display an executable binary ]
[ while at that same time supporting Find/Find Next. ]
[ imagine, a file with no guarantee of real strings! ]
[ just try a Find using less with such binary files. ]

With this commit, the translated 'Y' demo screens will
now be properly shown, providing no invalid multi-byte
characters have been detected. Should that be the case
then they'll be displayed in that less-like way above.

And, if users go on to fully exploit this 'Y' command,
there is a good chance that a file or pipe might yield
output in a utf-8 multi-byte form. Should that be true
such output will thus be handled appropriately by top.

[ in many respects, this change was more challenging ]
[ than the basic support within the previous commit. ]
[ story of my life: least used = most effort needed. ]

Many thanks to our procps-ng translators which enabled
a proper test of these changed 'Y' command provisions:
. Vietnamese: Trần Ngọc Quân
. Polish: Jakub Bogusz
. German: Mario Blättermann
. French: Frédéric Marchal, Stéphane Aulery

9773c56add top: refactored for correct multi-byte string handling
When this project first began implementing translation
support nearly 6 years ago, we overcame many 'gettext'
obstacles and limitations.  And, of course, there were
not any actual translations at the time so our testing
was quite limited plus, in many cases, only simulated.

None of that, however, can justify or excuse the total
lack of attention to top's approach to NLS, especially
since some actual translations have existed for years.

When the issue referenced below was raised, I suffered
immediate feelings of anxiety, doubt and pending doom.
This was mostly because top strives to avoid line wrap
at all costs and that did not bode well for multi-byte
translated strings, using several bytes per character.

I was also concerned over possible performance impact,
assuming it was even possible to properly handle utf8.

But, after wrestling with the problem for several days
those initial feelings have now been replaced by guilt
over any trouble I initially caused those translators.

One can only imagine how frustrating it must have been
after the translation effort to then see top display a
misaligned column header and fields management page or
truncated screens like those of help or color mapping.
------------------------------------------------------

Ok, with that off my chest let's review these changes,
now that top properly handles UTF8 multi-byte strings.

. Performance - virtually all of this newly added cost
for multi-byte support is incurred during interactions
with the user. So, performance is not really an issue.

The one occasion when performance is impacted is found
during 'summary_show()' processing, due to an addition
of one new call to 'utf8_delta()' in 'show_special()'.

. Extra Wide Characters - I have not yet and may never
figure out a way to support languages like zh_CN where
the characters can be wider than most other languages.

. Translated User Name - at some future point we could
implement translation of user names. But as the author
of the issue acknowledged such names are non-standard.
Thus task display still incurs no new multi-byte costs
beyond those already incurred in that escape.c module.

For raising the issue I extend my sincerest thanks to:
Göran Uddeborg

ccbd818cb4 vmstat: Fix alignment for disk partition format
The disk partition format translation hint, the actual text and the
printf statements were all diagreeing with each other. This meant
the disk partition output from vmstat was a mess.

Now all the titles and values line up and everything is right-aligned
which looks better than some half-hearted attempt at center-aligned
for titles and right-aligned for values.

Thanks to @goeran for the heads-up in #69

3651280194 whattime: Show 0 minutes in pretty output
When supplying the -p command to uptime, it does not display any
sections where the value is less than 1; however, after a reboot, this
causes the command to just output "up". Showing 0 minutes when the
system has been up for less than a minute makes it clear a reboot just
occurred.

e6e228e7f4 Fix out of boundary write on 1x1 terminals
If a terminal is merely 1x1 in size, setsize() will write a nul byte in
front of the allocated memory, which is an out of boundary write.

aab30a0aad top: protect against the anomalous 'Mem' graph display
Until this patch, top falsely assumed that there would
always be some (small) amount of physical memory after
subtracting 'used' and 'available' from the total. But
as the issue referenced below attests, a sum of 'used'
and 'available' might exceed that total memory amount.

I'm not sure if this is a problem with our calculation
of the 'used' amount, a flaw in the kernel 'available'
algorithms or some other reason I cannot even imagine.

Anyway, this patch protects against such a contingency
through the following single line addition of new code
. if (pct_used + pct_misc > 100.0 || pct_misc < 0) ...

The check for less than zero is not actually necessary
as long as the source numbers remain unsigned. However
should they ever become signed, we'll have protection.

[ Most of the changes in this commit simply separate ]
[ a variable's definition from its associated logic. ]
