Hello, First off all, I beg your pardon for my pure English.
IMO the only big problem is that libprocps does not export enough symbols. Currently it doesn't export even the essential freeproc() [1]. I filled a bug report against libprocps0-dev [2]. And ss soon as those symbols begins to be exported, the ulatencyd will be easily patchable. I created a branch on github, that uses such external libproc. It consists of rather trivial code removal and of the cmake system update. Though, it probably depends on changes I have committed before, these come to my mind: - let readproc/readtask allocate proc_t storage instead of reusing single buffer (i.e. call them with NULL). This is maybe not necessary but it allows ulatencyd to more abstract from libproc internals. - reimplement and improve u_proc.cgroups_* handling in ulatencyd core, this is IMHO needed for #629380 [3] fix anyhow. I have also temporary disable the "groups" property of u_proc instances exported tu lua (not used anywhere). The branch is https://github.com/gajdusek/ulatencyd/commits/libprocps-ng with currently one commit: "Remove embedded libproc and coreutils, use system libprocps (issue #37)" https://github.com/gajdusek/ulatencyd/commit/b30c5ef10c63b978e16a2f8addd5ed4a02761944 It seems to work fine. I haven't tried to backport it to the Poelzi's master yet. I have fixed some bugs since that, including a try of fixing #629380 [3] and the patches would overlap. Moreover the patches would divert from upstream rather much. Any ideas?
