Detailed Description

32-bit based struct rlimit used with getrlimit() and setrlimit().

The kernel calls this struct compat_rlimit. The userspace struct rlimit always uses 64-bit wide integers (at least on glibc), but getrlimit() and setrlimit() on e.g. i386 only support 32-bit wide ints, meaning that larger values are silently ignored by glibc.

The prlimit64 system call always uses 64-bit integers instead, which is not clearly visible from the man page.

For getrlimit() and setrlimit() depending on system call ABI either rlimit32 or rlimit64 needs to be considered.
