Several of our newer meters have merged coding concerns in terms
of extracting values and displaying those values. This commit
rectifies that for the SysArch and Hostname meters, allowing use
of this code with alternative front/back ends. The SysArch code
is also refined to detect whether the platform has an os-release
file at all and/or the sys/utsname.h header via configure.ac.
On Linux kernels the size of the values exported for network
device bytes and packets has used a 64 bit integer for quite
some time (2.6+ IIRC). Make the procfs value extraction use
correct types and change internal types used to rate convert
these counters (within the NetworkIO Meter) 64 bit integers,
where appropriate.
Use only one enum instead of a global and a platform specific one.
Drop Platform_numberOfFields global variable.
Set known size of Process_fields array
Move platform-specific code out of the htop.c main function
and into the platform sub-directories - primarily this is
the Linux procfs path check and sensors setup/teardown; not
needed on any other platforms. No functional changes here.
Reasoning:
- implementation was unsound -- broke down when I added a fairly
basic macro definition expanding to a struct initializer in a *.c
file.
- made it way too easy (e.g. via otherwise totally innocuous git
commands) to end up with timestamps such that it always ran
MakeHeader.py but never used its output, leading to overbuild noise
when running what should be a null 'make'.
- but mostly: it's just an awkward way of dealing with C code.
Specifically, Platform_signals[] and Platform_numberOfSignals. Both are
not supposed to be mutable. Marking them 'const' puts them into rodata
sections in binary. And for Platform_numberOfSignals, this aids
optimization (aids only Link Time Optimization for now). :)
