PR htop-dev/htop#70 got rid of the infrastructure for generating header
files, but it left behind some code duplication.
Some of cases are things that belong in the header file and don't need
to be repeated in the C file. Other cases are things that belong in the
C file and don't need to be in the header file.
In this commit I tried to fix all of these that I could find. When given
a choice I preferred keeping things out of the header file, unless they
were being used by someone else.
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.
Use xStrdup instead of xMallow and strncpy
StringUtils.c: In function ‘String_split’:
StringUtils.c:86:7: error: ‘strncpy’ specified bound depends on the length of the source argument [-Werror=stringop-overflow=]
86 | strncpy(token, s, size + 1);
| ^
StringUtils.c:84:18: note: length computed here
84 | int size = strlen(s);
| ^
Use strncmp() combined with a strlen() will give better performance
than a strstr in worst case. Especially when the match prefix is a
constant and not a variable.
While we are at it, replace the match() function in linux/Battery.c,
which uses a naive algorithm, with a macro that does better job by
utilizing Strings_startWith().
