1 /* ulimit.c - Modify resource limits
3 * Copyright 2015 Rob Landley <rob@landley.net>
5 * See http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/ulimit.html
8 * Deviations from posix: The units on -f are supposed to be 512 byte
9 * "blocks" (no other options are specified, and even hard drives don't
10 * do that anymore). Bash uses 1024 byte blocks, so they don't care either.
11 * We consistently use bytes everywhere we can.
13 * Deviations from bash: Sizes are in bytes (instead of -p 512 and -f 1024).
14 * Bash's -p value has been wrong since 2010 (git 35f3d14dbbc5).
15 * The kernel implementation of RLIMIT_LOCKS (-x) was removed from Linux in
16 * 2003. Bash never implemented -b (it's in the help but unrecognized at
17 * runtime). We support -P to affect processes other than us.

24 depends on TOYBOX_PRLIMIT
26 usage: ulimit [-P PID] [-SHRacdefilmnpqrstuv] [LIMIT]
28 Print or set resource limits for process number PID. If no LIMIT specified
29 (or read-only -ap selected) display current value (sizes in bytes).
30 Default is ulimit -P $PPID -Sf" (show soft filesize of your shell).
32 -S Set/show soft limit -H Set/show hard (maximum) limit
33 -a Show all limits -c Core file size
34 -d Process data segment -e Max scheduling priority
35 -f Output file size -i Pending signal count
36 -l Locked memory -m Resident Set Size
37 -n Number of open files -p Pipe buffer
38 -q Posix message queue -r Max Real-time priority
39 -R Realtime latency (usec) -s Stack size
40 -t Total CPU time (in seconds) -u Maximum processes (under this UID)
41 -v Virtual memory size -P PID to affect (default $PPID)
