Description Pas 2015-05-04 16:44:17 UTC 
Currently the systemd.exec man page defers to setrlimit(2) for all the Limit* directives.

A detailed listing of directives with their accepted arguments and their semantics would be helpful for users.

systemd.resource-control (so cgroups) have some understanding of unit suffixes, so it'd nice to also support those for resource limits too.

This has been implemented a while back.
