Function setrlimit [src]

Prototype

pub fn setrlimit(resource: rlimit_resource, limits: rlimit) SetrlimitError!void

Parameters

resource: rlimit_resourcelimits: rlimit

Possible Errors

LimitTooBig

PermissionDenied

Unexpected UnexpectedError

The Operating System returned an undocumented error code.

This error is in theory not possible, but it would be better to handle this error than to invoke undefined behavior.

When this error code is observed, it usually means the Zig Standard Library needs a small patch to add the error code to the error set for the respective function.

Source

  pub fn setrlimit(resource: rlimit_resource, limits: rlimit) SetrlimitError!void {
    const setrlimit_sym = if (lfs64_abi) system.setrlimit64 else system.setrlimit;

    switch (errno(setrlimit_sym(resource, &limits))) {
        .SUCCESS => return,
        .FAULT => unreachable, // bogus pointer
        .INVAL => return error.LimitTooBig, // this could also mean "invalid resource", but that would be unreachable
        .PERM => return error.PermissionDenied,
        else => |err| return unexpectedErrno(err),
    }
