qemu uses prctl() to set its process title. I bumped up against
prctl()'s
16-character limit recently, when adding process title support to
libvirt[1][2].
The attached patch overwrites argv instead. Linux seems to maintain
the
length of the original args, even when the new args are shorter and
NULL-terminated, so the trailing whitespace in ps(1) output is
probably
unavoidable. I've seen the same result with other daemons that
overwrite
argv.
Please use git-send-email to send it inline along with a commit
message, so that it can be better reviewed and applied.
Also lacks a Signed-off-by. Please see CODING_STYLE or list archives.
