When autogroups are active programs such as renice and
nice are basically useless because the nice value will
only affect the target task priority relative to other
processes in the same autogroup. So to accomplish what
we thought of as renice, /proc/<pid>/autogroup must be
changed. Altering a single member in an autogroup will
also affect every other member of that same autogroup.
Since top's renice provision ('r') suffers constraints
like those of the stand alone nice/renice programs, we
will now provide a means to manipulate that nice value
found within some process' /proc/<pid>/autogroup file.
[ to alter this file for other user's tasks requires ]
[ root privileges, as does setting a negative value. ]

Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>
With openSUSE's tumbleweed release of procps-ng-4.0.0,
their source rpm contained a questionable patch. It is
ostensibly devoted to increasing the accuracy for %cpu
calculations in the ps program. However, in my opinion
it goes too far and is quite flawed for these reasons:
1. Six separate files were impacted instead of just 1.
2. While ps was the object, libproc-2 was changed too.
3. A header file's alphabetic item order was violated.
4. The library API and ABI were altered unnecessarily.
It should be noted that all the <pids> TIME items were
made 'real' when representing seconds so that they can
be converted into jiffies/tics if multiplied by hertz.
Thus, there was absolutely no justification for adding
a new PIDS_TICS_ELAPSED ull_int item to the interface.
As an example, assuming a hertz value of 100, there is
enough capacity in all of those 'TIME' seconds to hold
nearly 3 million years worth of tics without a loss of
precision whenever they are changed back into jiffies.
[ that's nine quadrillion seven trillion one hundred ]
[ ninety-nine billion two hundred fifty-four million ]
[ seven hundred forty thousand nine hundred ninety + ]
[ one! or more concisely, as: 9,007,199,254,740,991. ]
So, any need for increased accuracy in that ps program
can be realized within the single output.c file alone.
That's what will be accomplished with this new commit.
And for any doubters here's a 'double' capacity proof:

This particulate commit was a refactor of the openSUSE
patch 'procps-ng-3.3.8-bnc634840.patch'. Unfortunately
their original patch did not have the intended effect.
That was because the amended signal handling logic was
performed well before the command line parameters were
parsed. So the global 'Batch' flag was in its 0 state.
. what follows is the original openSUSE commit message
------------------------------------------------------
Do not setup SIGHUP signal handler if we are in the batch mode
Top enables a signal handler for the SIGHUP signal (loss of terminal). While
this makes sense for top's default interactive mode, it doesn't make any sense
for batch mode. If you run top in nohup just to collect data over time and
disconnect top finishes which is not what one would expect.

When the globbing update was put into sysctl, you could no longer
simply use the keys because one key could potentially be
multiple paths once the glob expansion occured. Using the path
instead gave a unique output.
Except certain programs, such as salt, expected the output to use
the dotted path "kernel.hostname" and not "kernel/hostname".
We can no longer use the original key, so now for each path:
Copy the path
strip off /proc/
convert all / to .
The sysctl testsuite was also updated to check for a few different
types of conversion failures.

For some unknown reason, make check doesn't depend on either
the check programs or the actual programs under test. This means
if you try to run make check right off the bat from a clean git
repositorty, it will fail as it won't be able to run the unbuilt
binaries.
I'm not sure why this is needed, but if the dist_man_MANS
variable is not copied from the top-level Makefile down to the
man-po one then make dist from a clean archive will not work.
I'm sure someone with better automake magic than me can make
this more elegant but for now it works if a little ugly.

When we transitioned from 'char' based fields to 'int'
proper initial cursor positioning (highlight) was lost
in the 'fields_utility' function. The highlight should

completely different field other than that sort field.
So this patch will restore the master branch behavior.

This new integer based version of 'fieldscur' deviated
a bit too much from that character based logic when it
comes to ancient 3.2.8 rcfile support. This results in
an inappropriate extra field shown as the last column.
If we're truly dealing with 20 year old 3.2.8 rcfiles,
it's important the 3.3.9 extension (RCF_PLUS_H) not be
concatenated to what was read. That's because a search
for the special SUSE characters will always find a '\'
in the 26th position (after normal 3.2.8 'fieldscur').
[ for symmetry, we'll also avoid RCF_PLUS_J (3.3.17) ]

As I speculated in a prior commit, this patch will now
demonstrate how simple it is to extend the upper limit
of supportable fields. With these changes we'll now go
from facing the old limit of 86 to a new limit of 100.
No other changes are needed nor is any logic impacted.
Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net>
With each of those references shown below, the maximum
number of fields was increased. However, with a 'char'
based implementation we're nearing the upper limits of
total displayable fields. We currently use 76 of a max
of 86 fields. With extra effort, 94 might be possible.
But 94 is the absolute upper limit of possible fields!
Moreover, the current implementation yields characters
that were unprintable in the rcfile. This could become
an issue with that 'inspect' feature when/if an rcfile
is edited to add entries (as opposed to using 'echo').
So, with this commit the internals of field management
has been completely reimagined. It is now based on the
integer type, not a character. And whereas that former
design used the high order bit to show the 'on' state,
thus yielding an unprintable character, the new design
uses the low order bit for the state. As such, numbers
will be kept small and an even number will be an 'off'
field whereas an odd number will become an 'on' state.
The bottom line is that this new design will afford an
unlimited number of new fields while keeping an rcfile
completely free of that potential unprintable garbage.
And it is embarrassingly easy to extend the maximum of
supportable fields from the currently implemented 100.
Who knows, maybe a future patch will prove this point.
