DESCRIPTION
So on nixos there is a weird interaction that occurs between libksysguard's
implementation of handling program names and how nixos spawns certain
processes. I was able to narrow at least one solution down to a check in
readProcCmdline in the file libksysguard/processcore/processes_linux_p.cpp
around line 570 that would prevent the setting of the name from the command
line to a nontruncated name and so I removed the check. I did notice that after
applying this patch that there was a regression in the niceness of the names of
some of my brave browser threads but it seemed to fix the issue other than
that.
specifically if you change this:
QString nameFromCmdLine = process->command().mid(processNameStart, zeroIndex -
processNameStart);
if (nameFromCmdLine.startsWith(process->name())) {
process->setName(nameFromCmdLine);
}
to this:
QString nameFromCmdLine = process->command().mid(processNameStart, zeroIndex -
processNameStart);
process->setName(nameFromCmdLine);
it seems to have the exact effect I mean, I don't know if this is the best way
to fix this issue but I just wanted to figure out some solution to it since it
has been bugging me for awhile.
