humanize_number() to reduce the amount of column overflowing. -H turns
this off. -h is turned on by default if stdout is a tty.
them unsigned I made the possible overflows hard to detect,
and it only saved 1 bit which isn't principal, even less now
that the underlying issue with the total of virtual memory has
been fixed. (For the record, it will overflow with >=2T of
VM total, with 32-bit ints used to keep counters in pages.)
- While here, fix printing of other "struct vmtotal" members
such as t_rq, t_dw, t_pw, and t_sw as they are also signed.

- Fix overflow bugs in sysctl(8), systat(1), and vmstat(8)
when printing values of "struct vmmeter" in kilobytes as
they don't necessarily fit into 32 bits. (Fix sysctl(8)
reporting of a total virtual memory; it's in pages too.)
- Remove some extra blank lines.
- Remove comments that don't contribute to understanding.
- Remove additional blank lines in output added to maximize compatibility
with older vmstat output, but that is actually somewhat gratuitous.

statistics from -z are now a bit different due to changes in the
way statistics are now measured. Reproduce with some amount of
accuracy the slightly obscure layouts adopted by the two kernel
sysctls. In the future, we might want to normalize them.

malloc(9) statistics from kernel memory or a kernel coredump, to catch
up with recent changes to adopt per-CPU malloc(9) statistics. The new
routines walk the per-CPU statistics pools and coalesce them for
presentation to the user.
Fixed a nearby bug. The "play it safe" code in dosysctl() was unsafe
because it overran the buffer by 1 if sysctl() filled all of the buffer.
Fixed a nearby style bug in output. Not just 1, but 2 extra newlines
were printed at the end by "vmstat -m" and "vmstat -z". Don't print
any newlines explicitly. This depends on 2 of the many formatting
bugs in the corresponding sysctls. First, the sysctls return an extra
newline at the end of the strings. This also messes up output from
sysctl(8). Second, the sysctls return an extra newline at the beginning
of the strings. This is good for separating the 2 tables output by
"vmstat -mz" and for starting the header on a new line in plain sysctl
output, but gives a bogus extra newline at the beginning for "vm -[m | z]"
and "sysctl -n [kern.malloc | vm.zone]".
Fixed some nearby style bugs in the source code:
- the same line that misspelled 0 as NULL also spelled NULL as 0.
- the size was doubled twice in the realloc loop.
- the "play it safe" comment was misleading. Terminating the buffer
is bogus because dosysctl() is only meant to work with sysctls that
return strings and the terminator is part of a string. However, the
kern.malloc sysctl has more than style bugs. It also doesn't return
a string. Termination is needed to work around this bug.
- Replace overly-complicated (and buggy) -a logic with a much simpler
version: -a causes all interrupts to be displayed, otherwise only
those that have occurred are displayed. This removes the need for
any MD code.
- Instead of just making sure intrcnt is large enough, figure out the
exact size it needs to be. We derive nintr from this number, and we
don't want to risk printing garbage. Note that on sparc64, we end up
printing garbage anyway because the names of non-existent interrupts
are left uninitialized by the kernel.
Tested on: alpha, i386, sparc64
o nintr and inamlen must by of type size_t, not int,
o Remove now unnecessary casts,
o Handle the aflag differently, because the intr. names have a
fixed width and almost always have trailing spaces.
The use of libkvm for post-mortem analysis is still supported (though it
could use more testing). We can now remove vmstat's setgid bit.
While I'm here, hack the interrupt listing code to not display interrupts
that haven't occurred unless the -a option was given on the command line,
and document this change.
Kernel:
Change statistics to use the *uptime() timescale (ie: relative to
boottime) rather than the UTC aligned timescale. This makes the
device statistics code oblivious to clock steps.
Change timestamps to bintime format, they are cheaper.
Remove the "busy_count", and replace it with two counter fields:
"start_count" and "end_count", which are updated in the down and
up paths respectively. This removes the locking constraint on
devstat.
Add a timestamp argument to devstat_start_transaction(), this will
normally be a timestamp set by the *_bio() function in bp->bio_t0.
Use this field to calculate duration of I/O operations.
Add two timestamp arguments to devstat_end_transaction(), one is
the current time, a NULL pointer means "take timestamp yourself",
the other is the timestamp of when this transaction started (see
above).
Change calculation of busy_time to operate on "the salami principle":
Only when we are idle, which we can determine by the start+end
counts being identical, do we update the "busy_from" field in the
down path. In the up path we accumulate the timeslice in busy_time
and update busy_from.
Change the byte_* and num_* fields into two arrays: bytes[] and
operations[].
Userland:
Change the misleading "busy_time" name to be called "snap_time" and
make the time long double since that is what most users need anyway,
fill it using clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) to put it on the same
timescale as the kernel fields.
Change devstat_compute_etime() to operate on struct bintime.
Remove the version 2 legacy interface: the change to bintime makes
compatibility far too expensive.
Fix a bug in systat's "vm" page where boot relative busy times would
be bogus.
