I am ecstatic beyond words to announce the release of procps version 2.0.13. This release contains a number of NPTL-related enhancements, courtesy of Alexander Larsson of Red Hat. Some of the enhancements are generic in nature, and thus also benefit non-NPTL applications.
I encourage everyone to give this a try, especially 2.5 users.
Tarball, RPM packages, and CVS information is available at:
http://tech9.net/rml/procps/ http://sources.redhat.com/procps/
Change Log:
- fix top(1) -p flag behavior (Lars Holmberg) - do not qsort the process list if we are not sorting (Alexander Larsson) - read tgid from /proc/pid/status if it exists (Alexander Larsson) - PROC_SKIPTHREADS flag for ps_readproc() to force only reading of (tgid != pid) to avoid lots of syscalls (Alexander Larsson) - Look at PM->flags in ps_readproc() to avoid reading /proc files files that are not needed. (Alexander Larsson) - Support FILLMEM, FILLCMD, FILLENV, FILLWCHAN for above. (Alexander Larsson) - Fix wchan decoding bug (Alexander Larsson) - Fix for ticks going backward and cleanup (Denis Vlasenko)
And other misc. cleanups and changes.
Enjoy,
Robert "Why the Hell am I maintaining this" Love
