This information is rather hard to come by. Since this is "fixed", should I instead file bugs against
- limits.conf - lists an rss limit as the example in the man page, and does not warn that some or the limits just don't work. - zsh (and presumably, bash), which similarly pretends that limits work, does not report an error when setting one that don't, and while I'm at it, really should support abbreviated numbers (K,M,G suffixes) instead of just ignoring the suffix. ? Anyway, I was using ulimit -d (RLIMIT_DATA), is that also supposed to not work? BTW, there's a patch for RLIMIT_RSS on 2.6.8 at http://lwn.net/Articles/96859/, presumably it wasn't applied? -k -- ulimit / pam limits don't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/71024 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
