Almost forever, top has been accessing the /proc/stat/ directory one line at a time until either smp_num_cpus was reached or (more recently) Screen_rows is reached. When NUMA/Nodes support is enabled screen rows will no longer serve as a limit because all cpus must be read. With this commit, the entire /proc/stat/ directory can be read at once so all statistics will be frozen. Thus individual cpus will no longer keep "ticing" until top gets around to accessing them via some separate fgets. The distortion this commit eliminates was quite easily seen when comparing old/new tops using: individual cpu stats vs. cpu summary; a healthy delay interval of 3-5 seconds; manually synchronized update cycles (the hard part); some system loading (maybe another top at -d0). Additionally, this patch eliminates some long standing unnecessary initialization made possible because of an allocation via calloc. If some parts are never touched by sscanf due to a kernel version, it's unnecessary to repeatedly re-initialize those portions to zero again. Reference(s): . numa extensions added commit |

COMPATIBILITY
This code is intended for use with Linux 2.6.xx, 3.x and
hopefully all future kernels.
INSTALLATION
If you are using git version of the project you need extra step.
./autogen.sh
After that, and everyone using .tar.xz version of procps-ng, can
do normal build. Read './configure --help' to select options for
your needs.
./configure
make
make install
If you have DejaGNU installed you can run optional test suite.
make check
HOW TO CONTRIBUTE
See Documentation/BUGS file.
PACKAGING
If you are a downstream maintainer (packager) for a Linux
distribution, please avoid causing troubles. This section
applies to you.
Avoid maintaining distribution specific patches. Send your
patches to upstream, where they are at least reviewed, if not
included.
Please forward bug reports. If your bug database is public and
busy enough to bother with, please make this known. Follow
Debian's lead in making the bug database easy to comment on via
email without need for an account.
For normal packages, ensure that you do not add debugging flags
to the CFLAGS variable.
