Hi Jirka,
Thanks for your answer, but I'm looking for a way to set RLIMIT_MEMLOCK without locking all VM memory.
I'm wondering if there is a way to set RLIMIT_MEMLOCK without using the methods you wrote above.
Regards,
Roy

You can change it by specifying /domain/memtune/hard_limit in domain
XML; see http://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsMemoryTuning
Libvirt will use the hard_limit value for RLIMIT_MEMLOCK, but only if
needed. So it will be set only if any of the following is true:
- you are on PPC64
- the /domain/memoryBacking/locked is set
- a VFIO device passthrough is used
- an RDMA migration is initiated.
