NAME


prlimit - get and set process resource limits

SYNOPSIS


prlimit [options] [--resource[=limits] [--pid PID]

prlimit [options] [--resource[=limits] command [argument...]

DESCRIPTION


Given a process id and one or more resources, prlimit tries to retrieve and/or modify the
limits.

When command is given, prlimit will run this command with the given arguments.

The limits parameter is composed of a soft and a hard value, separated by a colon (:), in
order to modify the existing values. If no limits are given, prlimit will display the
current values. If one of the values is not given, then the existing one will be used.
To specify the unlimited or infinity limit (RLIM_INFINITY), the -1 or 'unlimited' string
can be passed.

Because of the nature of limits, the soft limit must be lower or equal to the high limit
(also called the ceiling). To see all available resource limits, refer to the RESOURCE
OPTIONS section.

soft:hard Specify both limits.

soft: Specify only the soft limit.

:hard Specify only the hard limit.

value Specify both limits to the same value.

GENERAL OPTIONS

--noheadings

-o, --output list
Define the output columns to use. If no output arrangement is specified, then a

-p, --pid
Specify the process id; if none is given, the running process will be used.

--raw Use the raw output format.
