Implements support for arbitrary Performance Co-Pilot
metrics with per-process instance domains to form new
htop columns. The column-to-metric mappings are setup
using configuration files which will be documented via
man pages as part of a follow-up commit.
We provide an initial set of column configurations so
as to provide new capabilities to pcp-htop: including
configs for containers, open fd counts, scheduler run
queue time, tcp/udp bytes/calls sent/recv, delay acct,
virtual machine guests, detailed virtual memory, swap.
Note there is a change to the configuration file path
resolution algorithm introduced for 'dynamic meters'.
First, look in any custom PCP_HTOP_DIR location. Then
iterate, in priority order, users home directory, then
local sysadmins files in /etc/pcp/htop, then readonly
configuration files below /usr/share/pcp/htop. This
final location becomes the preferred place for our own
shipped meter and column files.
The Settings file (htoprc) writing code is updated to
not using the numeric identifier for dynamic columns.
The same strategy used for dynamic meters is used here
where we write Dynamic(name) so the name can be setup
once more at start. Regular (static) columns writing
to htoprc - i.e. numerically indexed - is unchanged.
Writing to the file stream might fail due to a immutable file or a
filesystem error.
Check the error indicator for the stream and for fclose() failures.
Support three settings:
- Always show Function Bar
- Always hide the Function Bar, except in Infoscreens (Env/Locks...)
and when editing the search and filter mode
- Hide the Function Bar on ESC until the next user input
Closes: #439
Implements the suggestion from https://github.com/htop-dev/htop/issues/399#issuecomment-747861013
Thanks to the refactors from 0bd5c8fb5da and 6393baa74e5, this was really easy
and clean to do.
It maintains the "Tree view always by PID" option in the Settings, which
results in some specific behaviors such as "clicking on the column header to
exit tree view" and "picking a new sort order to exit tree view", for the sake
of the muscle memory of long time htop users. :)
Numbering from one is idiosyncratic and inconsistent with basically
everything else in the world; it doesn't make much sense as default
behavior.
All naming is updated to reflect that numbering from one is a
non-default, opt-in option. The old label of the flag saved in htoprc
("cpu_count_from_zero") is still supported for backwards compatibility
with existing configs, however.
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.
This commit adds a "vim_mode" setting (false/`0` by default) that causes
keys to be remapped in the following way by the `ScreenManager`:
+ h -> LEFT
+ j -> DOWN
+ k -> UP
+ l -> RIGHT
+ LEFT -> h (toggle help)
+ DOWN -> j (noop)
+ UP -> k (open kill menu)
+ RIGHT -> l (lsof current process)
+ K (Shift+K) -> k (open kill menu)
+ J (Shift+J) -> K (toggle show/hide kernel threads)
+ L (Shift+L) -> l (lsof current process)
I couldn't figure out where the manpage documentation is in the repo,
though I admittedly did not look particularly hard.
I believe this change would be a welcome option for heavy vim users like myself
who would like a familiar way to get around in htop.
