When -H is specified, for kernel threads the command is formatted as
"<proc name>/<td name>" and truncated to MAXCOMLEN. But each of the
proc name and td name may be up to MAXCOMLEN bytes in length.
Also handle the ki_moretdname field to ensure that the full thread name
gets printed. This is already handled correctly when formatting for
"-o tdname".

The current `ps -axO rtprio' show threads running at interrupt
priority such as the [intr] thread as '1:48' and threads running
at kernel priority such as [pagedaemon] as normal:4294967260.
This change shows [intr] as intr:48 and [pagedaemon] as kernel:4.

This flag will now show the processor number on which a process is running.
This change was inspired by PR129965. Initially I didn't think that the
patch attached to it was correct -- it sacrificed ki_estcpu use in "cpu"
for ki_lastcpu and I thought that the old functionality should be kept and
the new (cpu#) one added to it. But I've since discovered that ki_estcpu is
sched_4bsd-specific. What's worse, it represents the same thing as
ki_pctcpu, except ki_pctcpu is universal -- so "%cpu" has been using it
successfully. Therefore, I've decided to replace information based on
ki_estcpu with information based on ki_oncpu/ki_lastcpu.
Key parts of the code and manual changes were borrowed from top(1).

Fix the rtprio option that for some reason was progessively becoming an
option showing the priority class of threads. In particular:
- use the constants defined in sys/sys/rtprio.h instead of those defined in
sys/sys/priority.h: this helps making clearer that the code actually is
about realtime priorities and not standard scheduler priorities;
- remove the PRI_ITHD case that has nothing to do with realtime priorities;
- convert the priority levels to realtime priority levels using the same
formulas used for pri_to_rtp function in sys/kern/kern_resource.c.
- remove outdated note "101 = not a realtime process" in the man page and
replace it with a more useful reference to man 1 rtprio.

Initially it seemed that there were multiple possible ways to do it.
Processing option -p could conditionally add selected processes and
their descendants to the list for further work, but it is not guaranteed
to know whether the -d option has been used or not, and it also doesn't
have access to the process list just yet.
There is also descendant_sort() which has access to all possibly needed
information, but serves the purely post-processing purpose of sorting
output.
Then there is the loop that uses invocation information and full process
list to create a list of processes for final display. It seems the most
natural place to implement this, but indeterminate state of the process
list and volatility of the final list that is being created obstruct
adding an elegant search for all elements of process descendancy trees.
So I opted for adding another loop, just before the one I mentioned
above. For all selected processes it conditionally adds direct
descendants to the end of this list of selected processes.
Possible usage:
* ps -auxd -p $$
* ps -auxd -p 1
* while x=$(pgrep svnlite); do clear; ps auxd -p $x; sleep 2; done
* ps -auxd -p `pgrep make`

Apply patch submitted with PR 217159 to make ps use unlimited
width when not associated with a terminal (i.e., none of stdout, stdin,

This change was requested to work around lack of -ww in scripts from
third-party packages, including Hadoop, and adds a small measure of
Linux compatibility. Hopefully few if any non-interactive scripts
depend on the old default of 79.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
Previously it just didn't work at all - kvm_getprocs(3) doesn't update
the &nentries when it returns NULL. The end result was that ps(1) showed
garbage data instead of reporting kinfo_proc size mismatch.

A follow-up fix for r314685.
Because the -w flag is parsed after ps(1) infers termwidth from COLUMNS and
stdout, and UNLIMITED happens to be the zero value, the single -w flag in
combination with a non-terminal stdout or COLUMNS=0 could result in output
truncated at 131 characters. (Despite the output being unlimited without
-w.)
Obviously, adding more -w shouldn't truncate output lines.
The committed patch is from bdrewery@, and I've reviewed and tested it.

If stdout isn't a tty, use unlimited width output rather than truncating to
79 characters. This is helpful for shell scripts or e.g., 'ps | grep foo'.
This hardcoded width has some history: In The Beginning of History[0], the
width of ps was hardcoded as 80 bytes. In 1985, Bloom@ added detection
using TIOCGWINSZ on stdin.[1] In 1986, Kirk merged a change to check
stdout's window size instead. In 1990, the fallback checks to stderr and
stdin's TIOCGWINSZ were added by Marc@, with the commit message "new
version."[2]
OS X Darwin has a very similar modification to ps(1), which simply sets
UNLIMITED for all non-tty outputs.[3] I've chosen to respect COLUMNS
instead of behaving identically to Darwin here, but I don't feel strongly
about that. We could match OS X for parity if that is desired.

target. Due to a way issignal() selects the next signal to deliver
and report, if the simultaneous or already pending another signal
exists, that signal might be reported by the next waitpid(2) call.
This causes minor annoyance for debuggers, which must be prepared to
take any signal as the first event, then filter SIGSTOP later.
More importantly, for tools like gcore(1), which attach and then
detach without processing events, SIGSTOP might leak to be delivered
after PT_DETACH. This results in the process being unintentionally
stopped after detach, which is fatal for automatic tools.
The solution is to force SIGSTOP to be the first signal reported after
the attach. Attach code is modified to set P2_PTRACE_FSTP to indicate
that the attaching ritual was not yet finished, and issignal() prefers
SIGSTOP in that condition. Also, the thread which handles
P2_PTRACE_FSTP is made to guarantee to own p_xthread during the first
waitpid(2). All that ensures that SIGSTOP is consumed first.
Additionally, if P2_PTRACE_FSTP is still set on detach, which means
that waitpid(2) was not called at all, SIGSTOP is removed from the
queue, ensuring that the process is resumed on detach.
In issignal(), when acting on STOPing signals, remove the signal from
queue before suspending. Otherwise parallel attach could result in
ptracestop() acting on that STOP as if it was the STOP signal from the
attach. Then SIGSTOP from attach leaks again.
As a minor refactoring, some bits of the common attach code is moved
to new helper proc_set_traced().

There is no need to to call strdup() on the value returned by fmt().
The latter calls fmt_argv() which always returns a dynamically
allocated string, and calling strdup() on that leaks the memory
allocated by fmt_argv(). Wave some const magic on ki_args and
ki_env to make the direct assignment happy. This requires a tweak
to the asprintf() case to avoid a const vs. non-const mismatch.
