Revert "Fix #148: ARM: sadc crashes because of unaligned memory accesses"
This reverts commit 569378eb1a3be23cdb45ac5d39e354683a7748f8.
Proposed fix for #148 "sadc crashes because of unaligned memory access"
doesn't work properly:
Copying old pointer contents to new pointer destination uses the size of
the memory pointed to by the newly allocated pointer... which is not the
size of the memory the old pointer was pointing to. The result is you
may get a segmentation fault in some cases.
So for now, revert the corresponding patch, awaiting a better solution.

SVG: Fix graphs for swap space utilization statistics
Commit 8b71682 added a new metric to sar's memory report (available free
memory). This new metric caused a shift in the array containing data to
be drawn that wasn't properly taken into account (see commit f90adb6).
As a consequence graphs for swap space utilisation statistics (those
corresponding to sar -S output) were wrong.
This patch fixes the problem by using the right position in data array.

Fix #154: pidstat: Don't stop if /proc/#/schedstat files not found
Commit a41b24a added %wait field to pidstat CPU statistics. This field
is calculated for each task using the contents of /proc/#/schedstat
file. Yet pidstat should not stop if this file cannot be found: It
should display the other CPU statistics as usual and display 0.00 for
this particular field. This is what this patch does.

Start collect and summary systemd services after sysstat.service
When booting a system, systemd could start sysstat.service and
sysstat-collect.service at the exact same time, causing sysstat.service
to fail with the "flock: Resource temporarily unavailable" error
message.
To avoid the failure, ensure that sysstat.service is started before the
collect and summary services and timers, by adding
"After=sysstat.service" ordering dependencies.

Replace "rd_sec/s" and "wr_sec/s" fields (expressed in sectors) with

Replace "avgrq-sz" field (expressed in sectors) with "areq-sz" (expressed
in kilobytes).
Rename "avgqu-sz" field to "aqu-sz".
Original field names are still present in sadf's XML and JSON output to
keep backward compatibility.
Replace "rd_sec/s" and "wr_sec/s" fields with "rkB/s" and "wkB/s". These
fields are now expressed in kilobytes instead of sectors. This also make
them consistent with iostat's output.
Replace "avgrq-sz" field with "areq-sz". This field is now expressed in
kilobytes instead of sectors and make it consistent with iostat's output.
Rename "avgqu-sz" field to "aqu-sz" to make it consistent with iostat's
output.
Notes:
1) All those changes don't break the format of sar's binary data files.
The values for rkB/s, wkB/s and areq-sz fields are still saved as a
number of sectors. Only the output displayed onto the screen changes.
2) I plan to keep the original field names (in addition to the new ones)
in sadf's XML and JSON output to keep backward compatibility. This means
you will still get fields named rd_sec, wr_sec and avgrq-sz (expressed
in sectors) in XML and JSON output in addition to the new fields rkB,
wkB and areq-sz expressed in kB.
Field avgqu-sz will still exist too.
Make JSON output take into account the options used with iostat.
This fixes a problem where some fields had a name like rkB/s or wkB/s
even when data were expressed in MB. In this example, the name will now
be rMB/s or wMB/s when data are expressed in MB.
This patch renames several fields, breaking backward compatibility that
I first hoped to keep. However all fields are now consistent with
iostat's standard report.
iostat: Express requests average size in kB, not sectors
Since field "avgrq-sz" was renamed to "areq-sz", also change its unit:
This is now a number of kilobytes, and not sectors.
JSON output keeps both fields for backward compatibility: "avgrq-sz"
expressed in sectors, and "areq-sz" expressed in kilobytes.
iostat: Add new metrics in extended statistics output
Add the following metrics to iostat -x output:
%rrqm: percentage of read requests merged
%wrqm: percentage of write requests merged
rareq-sz: average size (in sectors) of the read requests
wareq-sz: average size (in sectors) of the write requests
The metric previously known as "avgqu-sz" has been renamed to "aqu-sz"
(except in the JSON output where the name remains unchanged).
The metric previously known as "avgrq-sz" has been renamed to "areq-sz"
(except in the JSON output where the name remains unchanged).
The "await" metric is no longer displayed in the default output (you
have separate values for reads and writes: "r_await", "w_await"),
except in the short output version where it replaces "r_await" and
"w_await".
This patch casts some variables to target type before they are used.
Without this patch, problems may happen (like issue #150) notably on 32
bit architectures where sizeof(long) is different from sizeof(long
long).

SVG: Define a max number of horizontal lines for the background grid
When a graph for percentage values is displayed, a background grid with
horizontal lines for 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% is drawn.
This works well except when sadf gets a bogus value for the maximum
value reached by the metric. For example, if sadf thinks that the max
value is 123456789% then a high number of horizontal lines will be
drawn, resulting in a huge SVG file that can weigh hundreds of megabytes
or more (NB: There are metrics which are percentage values that can go
above 100%, e.g., %commit).
This patch fixes that by setting a limit for the number of horizontal
lines that can be drawn.

Fix #153: sar program buffer overflow when options -s or -e specified
When a short time format is used with sar's options -s or -e (e.g.,
sar -s 04:00), 5 characters are copied by strncpy in parse_timestamp
to timestamp variable. Unfortunately these 5 characters do not contain
the termination, therefore the following strcat appends after the
next "random" null byte. Therefore writing beyond the end of timestamp.
This patch tries to prevent this by explicitly terminating.

Fix #148: ARM: sadc crashes because of unaligned memory accesses
Use posix_memalign() with 16 bytes alignment request instead of
realloc() to guarantee 16 byte alignment requested by several
sysstat's structures.
Note: 16 byte alignment is no longer needed by sysstat's
structures. Yet removing the corresponding attributes
(__attribute__ ((aligned (16)))) for example in rd_stats.h
would imply a format change for sar/sadc binary data files.
These attributes will be removed when work is done to make sa binary
datafiles portable (see #135).
This is really a nasty point here. The fix should be to make sar and sadf
able to read both big and little-endian binary data files.
For now we just remove the problematic test cases.
The fill_file_menu() function was rewritten and tries to handle
all three possible formats (`saYYYYMMDD, `saDD', `YYYYMM/saDD')
by collecting existing log files into a temporary list of strings,
which is then used after being sorted to generate the menu.
NOTE: isag is no longer maintained. This patch has been provided by
Debian team (see #146).
Add Refresh button to file menu to make it possible to re-read contents
of sysstat directory in case isag is running over midnight, and new

RFE #140: mpstat: Provide CPU statistics based on NUMA node placement
This patch for mpstat provides CPU load statistics for NUMA nodes.
It uses CPU statistics read from /proc/stat file then split them among
all nodes based on node placement.
Node placement is determined using /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/node#
file indicating which node the CPU is bound to. The node the CPU belongs
to is saved in an array of integers named cpu2node (e.g. cpu2node[3]
gives the node number for CPU#3).
The number of CPU per node is saved in another array of integers named
cpu_per_node (e.g. cpu_per_node[0] gives the number of CPU bound to
node#0).
The statistics for node N is calculated as the sum of statistics for
each CPU bound to node N divided by the number of CPU bound to that
node.
The patch assumes that statistics for node "all" are the same as
statistics for CPU "all".
Node statistics can be displayed using the new mpstat's option "-n"
(e.g. "mpstat -n 2 5"). Nodes to be displayed can be selected using
option "-N" the same way processors can be selected using option "-P"
(e.g. "mpstat -n -N 0,3 2 5").
PLEASE TEST THIS PATCH as my own machine offers limited possibilities.

SVG: Give actual canvas height
Add a comment at the end of SVG output that indicates the actual canvas
height.
The actual height is frequently different (i.e. smaller) than that
indicated in the header of the SVG output. This is because some
activities have pre-allocated entries that don't result in graphs being
drawn, or because option 'skipempty' has been used.
Remove memory statistics from sar (those displayed by sar -R, not
sar -r!) I have always considered those data displayed by sar as a
"mistake from my youth". They are not related to the speed of any
specific device (except maybe CPU, but there are other means to
measure CPU speed...), so displaying data per second is just irrelevant.
Cast values to (unsigned long long) before calling pval()
pval() function, used by sadf for its raw output format, assumes values
type is unsigned long long. So cast the values to that type before
calling this function.
