This enables:
* Multiple filters in the main panel and strace etc. views
* Multiple search terms
The search terms are separated by "|" and are still fixed strings
matched case-insensitive.
Added a multi flag at request of BenBE.
SELinux contexts can be quite long; adjust the column width dynamically
at each cycle to the longest value.
Also with the recent addition of multiple screens, over-long columns can
be moved into their own screen.
ProcessList_buildTree does not need any particular sort order for
children of the same process or roots. Switching these to the sort order
configured by the user produces sorted tree automatically, making repeat
sort unnecessary.
ProcessList_buildTreeBranch used to search for children with a linear
scan of the process table, which made tree build time quadratic in
process count. Pre-sorting the list by parent PID (if known) makes it
possible to select the correct slice by bisection much faster.
Separate `processes` (the vector owning the processes, sorted in
whatever order is needed right now internally) and `displayList` (a
vector referencing the processes in the same order they're to be
displayed).
Special-casing hidden processes does not serve any obvious purpose and
depends on the move from processes to processes2 which will be removed
in a later commit.
While most Unix-like systems use 16-bit user IDs,
Linux supports 32-bit UIDs since version 2.6.
UIDs above 65535 are used for UID namespacing of containers,
where a container has its own set of 16-bit user IDs.
Processes in such containers will have (much) larger UIDs than 65535.
Because the current format strings for `ST_UID` and `USER`
are `%5d` and `%9d` respectively, processes with such UIDs
lead to misaligned columns.
Dynamically scale the `ST_UID` column and increase the size of `USER`
to 10 characters (length of UINT32_MAX) to ensure that the user ID always fits.
Additionally: clean up how the titlebuffer size calculation and ensure
the PID column has a minimum size of 5.
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.
Currently htop does not support offline CPUs and hot-swapping, e.g. via
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
Split the current single cpuCount variable into activeCPUs and
existingCPUs.

This commit is based on exploratory work by Sohaib Mohamed.
The end goal is two-fold - to support addition of Meters we
build via configuration files for both the PCP platform and
for scripts ( https://github.com/htop-dev/htop/issues/526 )
Here, we focus on generic code and the PCP support. A new
class DynamicMeter is introduced - it uses the special case
'param' field handling that previously was used only by the
CPUMeter, such that every runtime-configured Meter is given
a unique identifier. Unlike with the CPUMeter this is used
internally only. When reading/writing to htoprc instead of
CPU(N) - where N is an integer param (CPU number) - we use
the string name for each meter. For example, if we have a
configuration for a DynamicMeter for some Redis metrics, we
might read and write "Dynamic(redis)". This identifier is
subsequently matched (back) up to the configuration file so
we're able to re-create arbitrary user configurations.
The PCP platform configuration file format is fairly simple.
We expand configs from several directories, including the
users homedir alongside htoprc (below htop/meters/) and also
/etc/pcp/htop/meters. The format will be described via a
new pcp-htop(5) man page, but its basically ini-style and
each Meter has one or more metric expressions associated, as
well as specifications for labels, color and so on via a dot
separated notation for individual metrics within the Meter.
A few initial sample configuration files are provided below
./pcp/meters that give the general idea. The PCP "derived"
metric specification - see pmRegisterDerived(3) - is used
as the syntax for specifying metrics in PCP DynamicMeters.
Refactor the sample time code to make one call to gettimeofday
(aka the realtime clock in clock_gettime, when available) and
one to the monotonic clock. Stores each in more appropriately
named ProcessList fields for ready access when needed. Every
platform gets the opportunity to provide their own clock code,
and the existing Mac OS X specific code is moved below darwin
instead of in Compat.
A couple of leftover time(2) calls are converted to use these
ProcessList fields as well, instead of yet again sampling the
system clock.

Currently the tree-view is empty on OpenBSD when kernel threads are
hidden, cause the kernel thread 'swapper' has pid 0 and gets treated as
root of the tree and parent of 'init'.
Do not build any tree with a pid 0 root node.
The local stack buffer does not need to be cleaned to zeros when
- just initialized, cause the length is set to 0 and the first
character is set to '\0', so all printing functions will safely stop
- no further used, i.e. the variable goes out of scope
- stay in follow mode on sort inversion (I)
- stay in follow mode after viewing help screen (h)
- select parent process (where available) when having followed a thread
and hiding these (H)
Closes: #560
If the last process entry is selected and the process dies, stay at the
end of the list and do not jump to the start.
Also if the last entry is selected keep, after rebuilding the process
list due to a new scan, the last entry selected.
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. :)
RichString_writeFrom takes a top spot during performance analysis due to the
calls to mbstowcs() and iswprint().
Most of the time we know in advance that we are only going to print regular
ASCII characters.
