SUMMARY
System Monitor crashes with a segfault while viewing the process list in tree mode, the bug has been narrowed down to a child process being unable to find its parent item and thus segfaulting.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the system monitor
2. Open a Process list view
3. Set the Process list to tree mode

OBSERVED RESULT
It crashes in random intervals when a parent process exits before all child processes exit.

EXPECTED RESULT
The program handles this properly and uses the next available parent as its parent.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.88.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3

Comment 2 Fabian Vogt 2021-12-06 18:25:41 UTC
I can reproduce this easily with:
1. A debug build of kitemmodels
2. Start plasma-systemmonitor, view the process list
3. Run bash -c "/bin/sleep 6 & /bin/sleep 3" until systemmonitor crashes

Result: qt.core.qabstractitemmodel.checkindex: Index QModelIndex(-1,-1,0x0,QObject(0x0)) is not valid (expected valid)

Handle process parent changes in ProcessDataModel

When the PPID of a process changes, it moves around in the model, changing the
layout. This needs to be announced properly, otherwise users of the model get
confused, leading to weird behaviour and crashes.

The added code is pretty much a direct copy from ProcessModel.
