  <para>
   <function>posix_getrlimit</function> returns an <type>array</type>
   of information about the current resource's soft and hard limits.
  </para>
  <para>
    Each resource has an associated soft and hard limit.  The soft
    limit is the value that the kernel enforces for the corresponding
    resource.  The hard limit acts as a ceiling for the soft limit.
    An unprivileged process may only set its soft limit to a value
    from 0 to the hard limit, and irreversibly lower its hard limit.
