|

.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.nf
|
|
.ft B
|
|
#include <sys/resource.h>
|
|
|
|
int getrlimit(int \fIresource\fP, struct rlimit *\fIrlp\fP);

.fi
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
getrlimit queries the current resource limit regarding the specified
|
|
\fIresource\fP. This can be one of the following: RLIMIT_CORE, RLIMIT_CPU,
|
|
RLIMIT_DATA, RLIMIT_FSIZE, RLIMIT_NOFILE, RLIMIT_STACK or RLIMIT_AS.
|
|
The soft limit is specified in \fIrlp\fP\->rlim_cur and the hard limit in
|
|
\fIrlp\fP\->rlim_max. On MINIX, these are currently always the same.
|
|
A value of RLIM_INFINITY specifies that no limit is enforced, although
|
|
architectural limits may still apply.
|
|
.SH "RETURN VALUE
|
|
If the function succeeds, 0 is returned.
|
|
If the function fails, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the
|
|
cause of the failure.
