Code that parses /proc/self/stat may be broken if the executable name contains spaces.
We have code that does this correctly, and code that does not.
UnixOperatingSystem.c is Linux-specific OS code, and has vread_statdata which correctly uses strrchr to find the last ) and parses from there.
OperatingSystemImpl.c the generic, not Linux-specific code, is not OK, as Java_com_sun_management_internal_OperatingSystemImpl_getCommittedVirtualMemorySize0 has a problematic fscanf call.
But the problematic fscanf call is Linux-specific: we use ifdef to create OS-specific implementations.
Need to change the fscanf of /proc/self/stat to do the same buffered read as read_ticks in UnixOperatingSystem.c (the Linux-specific code), with strrchr to read past the ) of the execname.
Moving the actually-Linux-specific getCommittedVirtualMemorySize0 to be with the other Linux-specific code means it can just use the existing method for accessing /proc/self/stat.
It does however call throw_internal_error, which is then not accessible. So that function can be shared in the libmanagement_ext.h/.c for both uses.
The call to throw_internal_error is working: if I change the code to fail, it reports a java.lang.InternalError as it would before.
Existing tests still pass:
i.e. test/jdk/com/sun/management/OperatingSystemMXBean/GetCommittedVirtualMemorySize.java
