procps-ng-3.3.8

[Gilles Espinasse]

Here is the announce

procps-ng version 3.3.8 was released today.  Besides the bug fixes,
there have been two main enhancements: NUMA and systemd support.

top comes with NUMA support which is a soft dependency, meaning that if
compilied with the support, top will try to link at runtime to libnuma.
The new key presses are '2' and '3' which will show the Nodes or more
detail about a specific node respectively.

ps has two new output columns; unit and uunit. These permit ps to
display the systemd unit and user unit fields.  The systemd support is a
hard dependency which is enabled with --with-systemd

There is also a new option to restore top behavior from 3.3.6

--disable-wide-memory disable extra precision under memory fields for top

For the test suite, the which hack is no more needed and kill test is skipped if running directly runtest.

Here is the diff for 3.3.8 upgrade for my build system to give an idea of the changes:

Fixed at revision 10287.

The pmap tests still fail due in scripts, but the other regression tests have been fixed.
