NAME

rctl —

resource limits

SYNOPSIS

To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in the kernel configuration file:

options RACCT
options RCTL

DESCRIPTION

The rctl subsystem provides a flexible resource limits mechanism, controlled by a set of rules that can be added or removed at runtime using the rctl(8) management utility.

LOADER TUNABLES

Tunables can be set at the loader(8) prompt, or loader.conf(5).

kern.racct.enable: 1: Enable rctl. This defaults to 1, unless options RACCT_DEFAULT_TO_DISABLED is set in the kernel configuration file.

HISTORY

The rctl subsystem first appeared in FreeBSD 9.0.

AUTHORS

The rctl subsystem was developed by Edward Tomasz Napierala <trasz@FreeBSD.org> under sponsorship from the FreeBSD Foundation.
