The main goal of this patch is to protect processes + from running short of important resources because of accidental + misbehavior of processes or malicious activity aiming to ``kill'' + the system. It's worth mentioning that resource limits configured + by setrlimit(2) do not give an acceptable level of protection + because they cover only a small fraction of resources and work on a + per-process basis. Per-process accounting doesn't prevent malicious + users from spawning a lot of resource-consuming processes. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
