I can change the name if you have better suggestions. rlimit_track_max? The max value is written often but read seldom, if ever. What kind of locking should I use then? > Wouldn't this be nicer if you taught the rlimit code to track the > *current* usage generically and to derive the max usage from that? Current rlimit code performs checks against current limits. These are typically done early in the calling function and further checks could also fail. Thus max should not be updated until much later. Maybe these could be combined, but not easily if at all. > >> diff --git a/fs/proc/base.c b/fs/proc/base.c >> index a11eb71..227997b 100644 >> --- a/fs/proc/base.c >> +++ b/fs/proc/base.c >> @@ -630,8 +630,8 @@ static int proc_pid_limits(struct seq_file *m, >> struct pid_namespace *ns, >> /* >> * print the file header >> */ >> - seq_printf(m, "%-25s %-20s %-20s %-10s\n", >> - "Limit", "Soft Limit", "Hard Limit", "Units"); >> + seq_printf(m, "%-25s %-20s %-20s %-10s %-20s\n", >> + "Limit", "Soft Limit", "Hard Limit", "Units", "Max"); > > What existing programs, if any, does this break? Using Debian codesearch for /limits" string, I'd check pam_limits and rtkit.
