584028dbe5 ps: exploit those new <pids> task/threads capabilities
This commit represents the ps transition to the <pids>
'stacks' interface. While an effort to minimize impact
on existing code was made (as with a disguised proc_t)
the changes were still extensive. Along the way, a few
modifications beyond simply conversion were also made.

------------------------------------------------------
Here's a brief overview the design of this conversion:

. The need to satisfy relative enum requirements could
not easily have been made table driven since any entry
in the format_array might require several <pids> items
in support. So I decided to allow every print function
to contribute its own relative enums once the decision
as to exactly what will be printed had been finalized.

. A similar approach was taken for sorting, since it's
possible to have sort keys that will not be displayed.
Here, I relied on the existing print extensions above.

. In summary, just prior to printing ps walks thru two
lists one time (the format_list & sort_list) and calls
each print function. That function does not print, but
sets its required enum if necessary. Later, when those
same functions are called repeatedly for every printed
line, the only overhead will be an if test and branch.

------------------------------------------------------
Below is a summary of major changes beyond conversion:

. Sorts are now the responsibility of the library. And
therefore the total # of sortable fields substantially
increased without effort. Additionally, several quirky
fields remain as sortable, even though they can't ever
be printed(?). Surely that must make sense to someone.

[ while on this subject of sort, please do *not* try ]
[ to sort old ps on 'args'. or better yet, if you do ]
[ try that sort, see if you can determine his order, ]
[ without peeking at the source. that one hurts yet! ]

. All logic dealing with the old openproc flags and ps
struct members known as 'need' have been whacked since
that entire area was solely the new library's concern.

. Remaining malloc/calloc calls to stdlib were changed
to xmalloc/xcalloc from our own include/xalloc.h file.
None of the replaced calls ever checked return values.

[ be aware that 2 minor potential memory leaks exist ]
[ depending on command line arguments. no attempt is ]
[ made to free dynamically acquired format/sort node ]
[ structures upon return; a conscious design choice. ]

56399212c8 library: Remove signal name from library
Procps library previously held functions that were about either
listing or finding signal names. These are not really the right
location for a library about reading procfs.

This patch handles signal related functions in two ways:

For functions purely found in skill, these have been moved back
into this binary as they are used nowhere else.

For functions used across the binaries, these have been moved
into include/signals.h and lib/signals.c. Besides formatting,
these functions are largely the same.

To assist the skill functions, two functions to access the
signal map array have been added to lib/signals.c

caeebdc71f ps: exploit the simplified library interface for wchan
This patch was made necessary by those library changes
in support of recently revised/simplified wchan logic.

In addition, this commit eliminates a broken alternate
'namelist' provision which was intended to allow users
to specify a System.map file to be used in translating
addresses into function names. But, the real effect of
the now defunct 'N' and '-n' options was to indirectly
force addresses (not names) to be displayed since such
user named map files could not be successfully parsed.

Besides when the required FRAME_POINTER kconfig option
is absent there is no address to translate and when it
is present /proc/PID/wchan is already translated. Thus
an alternate mapping is unnecessary and inappropriate.

[ we'll forgive POSIX for documenting '-n  namelist' ]

e751606fcc ps: add -q/q/--quick-pid option
This commit introduces a new option q/-q/--quick-pid
to the 'ps' command. The option does a similar job
to the p/-p/--pid option (i.e. selection of PIDs
listed in the comma separated list that follows
the option), but the new option is optimized
for speed.
In cases where users only need to specify a list
of PIDs to be shown and don't need other selection
options, forest type output and sorting options,
the new option is recommended as it decreases
the initial processing delay by avoiding reading
the necessary information from all the processes
running on the system and by simplifying
the internal filtering logic.

d06aaaaf2b ps: ignore SIGCONT
SIGCONT is a continue signal.  It seems that some zsh setups can send
this signal, causing ps to abort.  This is not what "continue" means.
This change just uses the default handler which will continue a stopped
process.

c1f10d11bc Allow core file generation by ps command (rhbz#871825, rhbz#512857)
Since the ps command handles signals with it's own handler, it doesn't create
core files when something wrong happens. The attached patch restores the ps
command ability to create core files by calling the default handler once we
print our custom message. The original RH's workaround masked SIGABRT and
SIGSEGV signals and that would conflict with the original intention of the
custom signal handler and also with the filtering patch I sent in my previous
email. Moreover, this solution generates core for all relevant signals (SIGFPE,
etc.).

4fb48c0bdb ps: generalize help text logic, add related translator hints
This commit represents an experiment in nls help text support.

The word --help itself been made translatable along with the
help section names and their abbreviations.  Thus, the work of
the translators will ultimately alter program run-time behavior.

Perhaps someday all "long" options can behave in a similar way
which could offer a considerable benefit to other languages.
Instead of translationg just option descriptions, the long
forms of those options could also be transalated.

This commit also:
 . includes the section abbreviations in --help output
 . isolates all --help support in the ps/help.c module
 . provides (hopefully) meaningful Translator guidance
 . removes --help support from the ps/common.h header
 . removes --help support from the ps/parser.c module
 . eliminates tabs in line with the style of other ps modules
 . eliminates the need for the include/c.h header file

  with distinction between control chars + other unprintable
. added escaped_copy function for already escaped strings
