получить и установить ограничения процесса (get and set process limits)

Пролог (Prolog)

This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The
       Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
       corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
       or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

Имя (Name)

ulimit — get and set process limits

Синопсис (Synopsis)

#include <ulimit.h>

long ulimit(int cmd, ...);


Описание (Description)

The ulimit() function shall control process limits. The process
       limits that can be controlled by this function include the
       maximum size of a single file that can be written (this is
       equivalent to using setrlimit() with RLIMIT_FSIZE). The cmd
       values, defined in <ulimit.h>, include:

UL_GETFSIZE Return the file size limit (RLIMIT_FSIZE) of the process. The limit shall be in units of 512-byte blocks and shall be inherited by child processes. Files of any size can be read. The return value shall be the integer part of the soft file size limit divided by 512. If the result cannot be represented as a long, the result is unspecified.

UL_SETFSIZE Set the file size limit for output operations of the process to the value of the second argument, taken as a long, multiplied by 512. If the result would overflow an rlim_t, the actual value set is unspecified. Any process may decrease its own limit, but only a process with appropriate privileges may increase the limit. The return value shall be the integer part of the new file size limit divided by 512.

The ulimit() function shall not change the setting of errno if successful.

As all return values are permissible in a successful situation, an application wishing to check for error situations should set errno to 0, then call ulimit(), and, if it returns -1, check to see if errno is non-zero.


Возвращаемое значение (Return value)

Upon successful completion, ulimit() shall return the value of
       the requested limit. Otherwise, -1 shall be returned and errno
       set to indicate the error.

Ошибки (Error)

The ulimit() function shall fail and the limit shall be unchanged
       if:

EINVAL The cmd argument is not valid.

EPERM A process not having appropriate privileges attempts to increase its file size limit.

The following sections are informative.


Примеры (Examples)

None.

Использование в приложениях (Application usage)

Since the ulimit() function uses type long rather than rlim_t,
       this function is not sufficient for file sizes on many current
       systems.  Applications should use the getrlimit() or setrlimit()
       functions instead of the obsolescent ulimit() function.

Обоснование (Rationale)

None.

Будущие направления (Future directions)

The ulimit() function may be removed in a future version.
