Would there be any objection to the following patch, it makes it easier
to see in top(1) which thing a process is waiting for.
The rule is that wchan messages should be at most 8 characters (see,
e.g., condvar(9)). These wchan messages satisfy that, as far as I can
tell. Maybe top(1) should be adjusted to show all 8 characters
instead?
It is 6 now because of /<n>...
Hmmm. I still have a 24-core machine (dual AMD 12-core processors)
sitting in my too-expensive-to-run-and-cool pile. If I were to fire
this beast up, would top(1) be limited to displaying only 5 chars of
waitchan?
:)
(PS I'm really not interested in bring this machine up - I've already
cannabilized it for several parts, so it's probably no longer bootable.)
