NAME
       explain_getrlimit_or_die - get resource limits and report errors


SYNOPSIS
       #include <libexplain/getrlimit.h>
       void explain_getrlimit_or_die(int resource, struct rlimit *rlim);


DESCRIPTION
       The  explain_getrlimit_or_die  function  is  used  to  call  the getrlimit(2) system call.  On failure an
       explanation will be  printed  to  stderr,  obtained  from  explain_getrlimit(3),  and  then  the  process
       terminates by calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE).

       This function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following example:
              explain_getrlimit_or_die(resource, rlim);

       resource
               The resource, exactly as to be passed to the getrlimit(2) system call.

       rlim    The rlim, exactly as to be passed to the getrlimit(2) system call.

       Returns:
               This function only returns on success.  On failure, prints an explanation and exits.
