>Description:
I've got a wrapper written in C.
It sets some limits on other scripts, which started in this wrapper.
Program makes syscall setrlimit() with RLIMIT_CPU, RLIMIT_NPROC limitations and than starts some perl script like this:
#!/usr/bin/perl
while(1){;}
This program eats CPU and dies after few seconds depending on RLIMIT_CPU parameter. There is no problem - everything correct. But there is no string in log files about process killing. I expect the following string in logs:
pid 32429 (perl5.8.7), uid 0, was killed: exceeded maximum CPU limit
but it's empty.
Talking about RLIMIT_NPROC limit - everything Ok.
I've tested this script on old 5.2.1-RELEASE FreeBSD... there was no questions... everything Ok too.
