There are 2 variants of strerror_r, GNU extension and a POSIX variant.
Use the more portable POSIX variant.
Also fix a potensial stack-use-after-return bug, instead of relying on
undefined behavoir in GNU libc implementation. The strerror_r manpage
says:
> This may be either a pointer to a string that the function stores in
> buf, or a pointer to some (immutable) static string (in which case buf
> is unused).
So it does not guarantee that it returns a pointer to some (immutable)
static string. It might return a pointer to "buf", in which case we get
a stack-use-after-return bug.
We fix this by declaring a thread local static buffer which we always
return.
Currently, state::getglobal pushes two values onto the stack: the global
environment and the requested global. For example, if you call
getglobal("conky"), the stack ends up with the following:
| ... global, conky |
The function config_setting_base::lua_set in setting.cc does not take this
behavior into account, resulting in #97.
To correct this, call replace(-2) at the end of state::getglobal where
LUA_VERSION_NUM >= 502.
Since commit 749083a, the output of ${top name <num>} contains the full
command line of each process, including arguments. While this feature can
be very useful, it changes the default behavior of Conky.
The present commit adds a new top_name_verbose option that allows the user
to toggle between basenames with no arguments (the old behavior) and full
command lines with arguments. To remain consistent with past versions of
Conky, the default value of top_name_verbose is false.
Fixes #113 (https://github.com/brndnmtthws/conky/issues/113).
get_cpu_count() is not called before trying to use cpus so conky exits with
conky: obj->data.i 1 info.cpu_count 0
conky: attempting to use more CPUs than you have!
Fixes issue #93.
If BUILD_IPV6=ON (default), but the user has disabled ipv6 support
in the kernel using the parameter ipv6.disable=1, then conky fails
to open /proc/net/if_inet6. This leads to a segfault when conky
calls fclose(file) regardless. This fix simply moves the fclose call
into the preceding if statement.
In our XCreateWindow call, we always set the backing_store attribute
to 'Always'. But since we never add the CWBackingStore to our value
mask, the backing_store setting always gets set to the default
NotUseful. This means that the backing store is never turned on, and
so when unobscuring the conky window, portions of the display will not
be drawn immediately if conky is blocked doing something else (e.g.
network, disk, the process is stopped), which is really annoying.
To fix this, specify the CWBackingStore flag in our value mask, so the
conky data is always visible, even if conky is blocking on some other
operation.
x11 shape extension (version >= 1.1) provide ability to set up input region
set up empty input region for undecorated window to create transparent window for mouse events
It now reports only reclaimable memory, by excluding shared memory,
and including the reclaimable part of the SLAB cache.
So '$mem' with 'no_buffers yes' is now the "really used" (unreclaimable) memory.
And when reaching OOM conditions, conky will always report high memory usage.
