Dear readers, Beside source code,
# man login.conf | grep cputime cputime time CPU usage limit. Is there any other information or examples about that parameter ? SO far if found : `cputime = pp->p_rtime_sec + ((pp->p_rtime_usec + 500000) / 1000000);` implying this parameters is in seconds, and the kernel will send a SIGXCPU if the process is not finished after that time ? Thank you for reading that far. ( i was looking for a way to limit cpu time allocation - a bit like nice but with an upper bound ) ( also a cpu core that would force affinity of a login class to a specific core would be fun ) -- -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Knowing is not enough; we must apply.
