Feature or enhancement
There are some RLIMIT_* constants on Posix platforms which are not currently exposed in the resource module.
RLIMIT_NTHR. Available on NetBSD >= 7.0, QNX >= 6.3.2.RLIMIT_UMTXP. Available on FreeBSD >= 11.RLIMIT_PIPEBUF. Available in the main branch on FreeBSD(>= 15?)>= 14.2.RLIMIT_THREADS. Available on AIX. The same asRLIMIT_NTHR?RLIMIT_VMEM. Available on Solaris/OpenIndiana. On FreeBSD >= 5.3 it is an alias ofRLIMIT_AS.
Constants RLIM_SAVED_CUR and RLIM_SAVED_MAX are used on some platforms (Solaris/OpenIndiana, AIX) to represent values that cannot be represented in 32-bit rlim_t.
It is perhaps too early to add RLIMIT_PIPEBUF.
RLIMIT_NTHR and RLIMIT_THREADS, should we only add one of them on the corresponding platform or add both names as aliases of one other?
RLIMIT_VMEM. Should we add it as an alias of RLIMIT_AS on all other platforms?
I am not sure whether RLIM_SAVED_CUR and RLIM_SAVED_MAX are still relevant on modern Unixes. Their use is complicated. They are the part of Posix, but not defined on Linux. On FreeBSD they are aliases of RLIM_INFINITY and are not useful at all.
