Subject: Bug#975325: dash(1) man page: ulimit documentation is inconsistent and out-of-date
Date: Friday, 20 November 2020 14:54

Package: dash
Version: 0.5.11+git20200708+dd9ef66-2
Severity: normal

In the ulimit documentation from the dash(1) man page:

     ulimit [-H | -S] [-a | -tfdscmlpnv [value]]
[...]
            -r          show or set the limit on the real-time scheduling
                        priority of a process

The -r option is not listed in the synopsis, but described anyway.
However, it is not supported:

$ ulimit -r
sh: 17: ulimit: Illegal option -r

Moreover, the -w option is supported:

$ ulimit -w
unlimited

but neither given in the synopsis, nor described.
