#38999: base/src/pextlib1.0/tracelib.c setrlimit failure ------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: ajdudman@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: base | Version: 2.1.3 Keywords: | Port: ------------------------+-------------------------------- Say OSX is 10.8.3 and open files are: {{{ ulimit -Sn 10240 ulimit -Hn 12288 }}} Then the current code will have rl.rlim_max as 12288, which is greater than OPEN_MAX. This produces an error in setrlimit() at line 438. See the attached log. OSX's setrlimit(2) is tricky and recently its behavior has changed. The manual page gives highlights. This problem is analogous to closed, fixed Ticket 35612 for bsdmake and the solution is similar. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/38999> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
