You are actually proposing a new resource control, "process.max-lwps". There's some internal history on this, which I can dig up if needed, but the summary is that, since there are constraints on this resource at the task, project, and zone level, why is a process level constraint also needed? (Each of these constraints is evaluated during the creation of an LWP.) In any case, I would not be interested in seeing any of the setrlimit(2)/getrlimit(2)/ulimit(2) interfaces extended, although I have no comment on how one might choose to represent access to such a constraint in a shell. I suppose if the semantics matched some other OS's capabilities and those capabilities were widely invoked, then there's a more interesting discussion to have... - Stephen -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://blogs.sun.com/sch/ _______________________________________________ opensolaris-code mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/opensolaris-code
