             Bug #: 13661
           Summary: server softening: allow relaxed rlimits
           Product: systemtap
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: server
        AssignedTo: systemtap@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: fche@redhat.com
    Classification: Unclassified


commit 4a044a5e772 introduced a hard-coded rlimit suite
for stap-serverd's running under the "stap-server" userid.
These limits are unfortunately too small to do stuff like

% stap --use-server -L 'kernel.function("*")'
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc'
  what():  std::bad_alloc

So, we need some one or more of
- relaxing the default limits
- allowing those limits to be unapplied, even though running as stap-server
- moving these limits to individual /etc/stap-server/conf.d/* files, so that
  the invoking shell sets separate limits
