20.Nd inject setrlimit system call into victim process
21.Sh SYNOPSIS
22.Lb libproc
23.In libproc.h
24.Ft int
25.Fo pr_setrlimit
26.Fa "struct ps_prochandle *P"
27.Fa "int resource"

36.Sh DESCRIPTION
37The
38.Fn pr_setrlimit
39function injects the
40.Xr setrlimit 2
41system call into the target process
42.Fa P
43by means of the agent LWP.
44If the process handle
45.Fa P
46is the value
47.Dv NULL
48then this will be equivalent to calling
49.Xr setrlimit 2
50on the currently running process.
51.Pp
52The arguments
53.Fa resource
54and
55.Fa rlp
56have the same meaning as in
57.Xr setrlimit 2 .
58See
59.Xr setrlimit 2
60for the full description and purpose of the
61.Sy setrlimit
62system call and its arguments.
63.Pp
64The
65.Fn pr_setrlimit
66function only works on active processes.
67Process handles that correspond to core files, zombie processes, or ELF objects
68do not support system call injection.
69.Pp
70The
71.Fn pr_setrlimit64
72function is equivalent to
73.Fn pr_setrlimit ;
74however, rather than having the rlimit information be subject to the data model
75of the target process, they always provide 64-bit rlimit information.
76See
77.Xr lf64 5
78for more information.
79.Sh RETURN VALUES
80Upon successful completion, the
81.Fn pr_setrlimit
82function's return value is that described in
83.Xr setrlimit 2 .
84Otherwise,
85.Sy -1
86is returned and
87.Sy errno
88is set to
89.Er ENOSYS
90to indicate that the system call could not be injected.
91.Sh ERRORS
92For the full list of errors see the
93.Sy ERRORS
94section in
95.Xr setrlimit 2 .
96.Pp
97The
98.Fn pr_setrlimit
99function will fail if:
100.Bl -tag -width Er
101.It Er ENOSYS
102An error occurred while trying to invoke the agent LWP and inject a
103system call in the process handle
104.Fa P
105or the process handle
106.Fa P
107does not support system call injection.
