Subject: Re: setrlimit hangs the process
Sorry. Let me describe the problem in more detail.
The process only hangs when launched without root privileges on the host
(Arch Linux x64 with kernel 4.17.5-1) where Alpine docker container is
running. Once with root privileges, it starts up correctly (but this is
obvious since it doesn't hit setrlimit call). The odd side is that on other
hosts it hangs even when started with root. No error messages so far.
Strace output:

I'll try to build a tiny example to isolate the problem and hopefully
provide more feedback.
Thanks
