clobbered at runtime:
dirtybuf -> dtbuf
desiredvnodes -> desvn
numvnodes -> numvn
freevnodes -> frevn
The vmstats column has only 5 characters available for descriptors, but up
to 13 were used. The extras get clobbered at runtime by interrupt values
and/or descriptors on systems with more than 12 interrupt sources.
%slo-z -> %sloz
This one is in the "extended" vmstats area and doesn't get clobbered now.
Removed stale documentation of desvn.
Changed a descriptor:
tfree -> totfr
so that it is consistent with the abbreviations for other free counts
(daefr and prcfr) and thus almost decodeable.
Fixed missing documentation of tfree/totfr. This and everything else
in the extended vmstats area is misdocumented as being in a certain
place in the vmstats column.
w/ non-zero data, and it turns out we don't... This is really optimized
zero filled on demand, or pages that were already zero'd for us...
MFC after: 3 days
3 columns were wasted at the left, except these columns were used to
make the header line up. Now there is no space on the same line for
the "Proc:" part of the header. Try putting this on the line above
although it clutters that line (there is already similar clutter for
the "Interrupts" header). Leave 1 column between these fields. With
the above and a previous change there is enough of space for this.
Use 5 columns instead of 3 for the number of users since 3 is not quite
enough and there was space to spare. This also fixes an off-by-2 error
in a previous fix forthe column count in the comment on STATROW.
Move all the pager fields 1 to the right so that the "count" and "pages"
descriptors more clearly apply to the pager fields and not the memory
fields. There was space to space.
Waste some of the spare space at the right of the pager fields to expand
all the pager field widths to their old values (but now with a column
between the fields). There are fields more in need of expansion but most
of them are not in places near spare space.
made it unnecessary. (Rev.1.6 had to reduce the field width to 4, and
changed 100.0 and preposterous larger values down to 99.9 since 100.0
wouldn't have fitted. Rev.1.35 handles precentages > 99.9 well enough by
changing the format to %.0f when the string given by the initial format
is too wide.)
Even with this change, during short testing I've never seen a percentage
of 100 being displayed by systat -v, although top(1) displays percentages
of 100 user or 100 idle for similar loads.
Always use snprintf()'s return value, since discarding it is a style
bug at best and using it here gives slightly simpler code and better
error checking. Use snprintf() in putlongdouble() the same as in
putfloat(). (1.25 changed most sprintf()'s to snprintf()'s to fix
non-bugs without changing the logic to use the result of snprintf();
1.27 restored one of the sprintf()s by cloning a stale version of
putfloat().)
Don't print a too-long field in the unlikely case that the fallback
to M units in putint() leaves the field still too long. (The fallback
to printing stars was lost in rev.1.58 when the fallback to M units
was added.)
cannot run into other fields or field descriptors. If the value is
too large to fit in the field width, then the output format is adjusted
so that the value (usually) fits, but with fields running together
externally this adjustment usually didn't help. Mostly it doesn't
matter to lose 1 digit of precision, but switching the output format
is bad if it happens often or gives bogus units. The loss of width
is most serious for fields near "Csw" (which are also the ones which
must often ran together) since these have a high variance and large
values relative to the possible field widths so the switch occurs more
often now, and for the memory size fields where the switch gives the
bogus units kKB or MKB.
Now only the fields for r, p, d, s and w can run into each other.
These fields have width 3, and 3 cannot be reduced to 2 without losing
all precision when the value is between 100 and 999.
Trim "pdwake" to "pdwak" at think time now that it doesn't get clobbered
at runtime. The manpage doesn't need to be changed for this because
it documents the clobbered descriptor, unlike for 4 other too-long
descriptors which only get clobbered if there are lots of interrupt
sources.
Trim "% busy" to "%busy" since most other descriptors for percentages
are spelled without the space and this change makes changing the widths
of the %busy fields unnecessary.
around PUTRATE() because PUTRATE() only looked like a function -- it was
multiple statements. Use "do {...} while(0)" as usual in PUTRATE() so
that it is a single statement that can be used like a function.
large. In most cases it is still 1 too large, so fields tend to run
together, but in the following cases it was more than 1 too large, and
the starting column was too small too, so the field started inside the
previous field or descriptor and clobbered that:
- "wire": the number for this overwrote 2 characters of the number for
"Flt". Reduce the field width by 3 (2 to avoid the overwrite and 1
so that the fields don't run together). This was already done for
the preceding number for "cow".
- "inact": the number for this overwrote 1 character of the descriptor
"Idle". Reducing the field width by 2 is enough.
- "cache:" the number for this overwrote 3 characters of the scale
"...| |". The field width should be reduced by 4 to keep things
from running together, but that is a lot and not so necessary here
since the final "|" in the scale serves as a delimiter. Only reduce
it by 3.
- "free": the number for this overwrote 2 characters of the bar graph.
The character position under the final "|" in the scale is apparently
not used, so reducing the field width by 3 is enough.
When "zfod" is in the main vmstat display:
- use the normal field width of 9 (not 5) for it since there is no shortage
of space. Fix style bugs (excessive {}) in the statement that
conditionally writes it.
Write all reduced field widths for vmstat fields as "9 - <reduction>" as
a hint that we don't want to reduce them.
number in more cases by stealing 2 characters from the count field to
give more space in the descriptor field, but it did the column adjustments
for this strangely using an off-by-2 error in the base column and
compensating off-by-2 errors in 6 offsets from the base column (4 new
errors and 2 from not changing the offsets that actually changed).
Print the "Interrupts" header directly at its offset from the base column
instead of spacing it half using the offset and half by printing a space
character.
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.
Bump __FreeBSD_version to 500107

The data for network statistics are still obtained via the kvm interface
if systat was started with the needed privileges, otherwise sysctls are
used. The reason for this is that with really many open sockets, the
sysctl method is probably slower, but it systat -netstat is probably not
really usable in either mode under these conditions.

and numvnodes are longs in the kernel. They should remain longs in systat,
what really needs to change is that they should be using SYSCTL_LONG rather
than SYSCTL_INT. I also changed wantfreevnodes to SYSCTL_LONG because I
happened to notice it.
I wish there was a way to find all of these automatically..

o Make the hw.ncpu error checking code a little more rigorous by
sanity checking the returned data size.
o Didn't fix machine-dependent non-sysctl-exported variables:
intrnames, eintrnames, intrcnt, eintrcnt, as these variables are
defined and exported from machine-dependent kernel code in
assembly. This should probably be fixed somehow.
o Add more checks for buffer overflows
o Use snprintf rather than strcat/cpy and have better checks for max
length exceeded.
Most of these changes are not exploitable buffer overruns, but it never
hurts to be safe.
