[Bug 690776] Re: Overwrite argv to set process title, eliminating 16-character prctl() limit.

[Thomas Huth]

The QEMU project is currently considering to move its bug tracking to another 
system. For this we need to know which bugs are still valid and which could be 
closed already. Thus we are setting older bugs to "Incomplete" now.
If you still think this bug report here is valid, then please switch the state 
back to "New" within the next 60 days, otherwise this report will be marked as 
"Expired". Or mark it as "Fix Released" if the problem has been solved with a 
newer version of QEMU already. Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience.

Title:
  Overwrite argv to set process title, eliminating 16-character prctl()
  limit.

Status in QEMU:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I've modified qemu to overwrite its arguments to set the process
  title, since its current prctl() method has a 16-character limit.

  I posted the original patch to qemu-devel, made the changes others
  suggested, then re-posted to qemu-devel. I flailed around a bit with
  the patch submission process and think I finally got it right, but
  haven't been able to gain the notice of a committer to have this
  pushed. Maybe this will get more attention when reported in the BTS.
