I've listed two other operating systems (AIX+IRIX) who already have this kind of functionality (unfortunately with two slightly different names (|RLIMIT_PTHREADS| vs. |RLIMIT_THREADS|)). > Personally I don't object to adding a 'ulimit -T' I was just showing how > the functionality I believe you described could be achieved using > existing Solaris functionality. Erm... AFAIK it's an _approximation_ of the functionality I'm looking for: $ prctl -n task.max-lwps ... # sets a task-wide limit, affecting all processes in this task instead just the intended audience of the current process (and it's children). ---- Bye, Roland -- __ . . __ (o.\ \/ /.o) [EMAIL PROTECTED] \__\/\/__/ MPEG specialist, C&&JAVA&&Sun&&Unix programmer /O /==\ O\ TEL +49 641 7950090 (;O/ \/ \O;) _______________________________________________ opensolaris-code mailing list opensolaris-code@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/opensolaris-code
