#### **--ulimit**=*type=soft-limit[:hard-limit]*

Specifies resource limits to apply to processes launched when processing `RUN` instructions. This option can be specified multiple times.  Recognized resource types include:
  "core": maximum core dump size (ulimit -c)
  "cpu": maximum CPU time (ulimit -t)
  "data": maximum size of a process's data segment (ulimit -d)
  "fsize": maximum size of new files (ulimit -f)
  "locks": maximum number of file locks (ulimit -x)
  "memlock": maximum amount of locked memory (ulimit -l)
  "msgqueue": maximum amount of data in message queues (ulimit -q)
  "nice": niceness adjustment (nice -n, ulimit -e)
  "nofile": maximum number of open files (ulimit -n)
  "nproc": maximum number of processes (ulimit -u)
  "rss": maximum size of a process's (ulimit -m)
  "rtprio": maximum real-time scheduling priority (ulimit -r)
  "rttime": maximum amount of real-time execution between blocking syscalls
  "sigpending": maximum number of pending signals (ulimit -i)
  "stack": maximum stack size (ulimit -s)

Size limits ("core", "data", "fsize", "memlock", "msgqueue", "rss" and "stack") are given in bytes,
not in the units that the **ulimit** shell builtin displays. See the **--ulimit** option in
**[podman-run(1)](podman-run.1.md)** for the units used by each type.
