Description of problem: The default display of top is broken on SMP machines with procps 2.0.17 (as in RHEL3 update 3). It appears that the "I" toggle is no longer set correctly for top, as it was in previous procps versions. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): procps 2.0.17 How reproducible: Run top on an SMP machine and observe the totals. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run top 2. Observe the totals Actual results: Top gives displays like this: CPU states: cpu user nice system irq softirq iowait idle total 0.0% 0.0% 28.4% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 371.2% cpu00 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 100.0% cpu01 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 100.0% cpu02 0.0% 0.0% 33.3% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 66.6% cpu03 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 0.0% 100.0% Expected results: Percentages should never go above 100%. Additional info: It appears that the problem here is that the "I" command is now toggled incorrectly for SMP systems. With procps 2.0.13, running top produced a correct display, but with procps 2.0.17 it's necessary to execute the "I" command once to fix the display. This default should set back to the old, correct behavior.
