!!DESCRIPTION
+getrlimit(2) get resource limits respectively. ''resource'' should be one of:
+ __RLIMIT_CPU__ /* CPU time in seconds */
+ __RLIMIT_FSIZE__ /* Maximum filesize */
+ __RLIMIT_DATA__ /* max data size */
+ __RLIMIT_STACK__ /* max stack size */
+ __RLIMIT_CORE__ /* max core file size */
+ __RLIMIT_RSS__ /* max resident set size */
+ __RLIMIT_NPROC__ /* max number of processes */
+ __RLIMIT_NOFILE__ /* max number of open files */
+ __RLIMIT_MEMLOCK__ /* max locked-in-memory address space*/
+ __RLIMIT_AS__ /* address space (virtual memory) limit */
-__getrlimit
__ and
__setrlimit
__ get and set resource
-limits respectively
. ''resource'' should be one
-of:
+A resource may unlimited if you set the limit to
__RLIM
_INFINITY
__.
__RLIMIT_OFILE__ is the BSD name for __RLIMIT_NOFILE
__.
+The __rlimit__ structure is defined as follows:

+Including ''<sys/time.h>'' is not required these days, but increases portability. (Indeed, ''struct timeval'' is defined in ''<sys/time.h>''.)
+The above struct was taken from BSD 4.3 Reno. Not all fields are meaningful under Linux. Right now (Linux 2.4) only the fields __ru_utime__, __ru_stime__, __ru_minflt__, __ru_majflt__, and __ru_nswap__ are maintained.
