Re: setrlimit(RLIMIT_NETWORK) vs. prctl(???)

[Michael Stone]

Ulrich,

As promised, here's a draft based on prctl() for comparison with the
rlimit()-based approach presented in the first attempt.

It behaves as I expect in simple testing with busybox "nc" and I'll do a more
thorough test shortly. I'm sending it now because I think that it's good enough
to give a decent overview of what the end result of this implementation
strategy might look like.

Regards,

Michael
