What is the difference between barrier and limit. They both sound like
hard limits. No?

Why uid? Will it be possible to club processes belonging to different

What are the above two fields used for?

I presume UB_RESOURCES value is going to change as different resources
start getting tracked.
I think something like configfs should be used for user interface. It
