    library: Increase comm length to 64 · 2cfdbbe8
    Craig Small authored
    For many years, the comm length has been set to 16. Previously to that
    it was 8. This means for things like kworkers they all have very cryptic
    names. The kernel is now going to increase this size to 64, so the
    procps library will follow this length increase.
    
    System tools may also increase their default length to 64, or keep it at
    16; there is only so much screen real estate.
