What did you do?

While preparing the Fedora package update for the next Go 1.18 release, I found that TestRlimit fails on arm7hl as you can see in this build. You can see the whole build log here in case someone is interested.
But the failure can be reproduce outside the Fedora build system:

[alex@ibm-p8-kvm-03-guest-02 src]$ ../bin/go test syscall -run ^TestRlimit$ -v
=== RUN   TestRlimit
    syscall_unix_test.go:349: Rlimit: change failed: wanted syscall.Rlimit{Cur:0xfffffffffffffffe, Max:0xffffffffffffffff} go
t syscall.Rlimit{Cur:0xffffffffffffffff, Max:0xffffffffffffffff}
--- FAIL: TestRlimit (0.01s)
FAIL
FAIL	syscall	0.216s
FAIL

I cannot reproduce it with previous versions, so I bet it might be related to this commit.

What did you expect to see?

No failing tests.

What did you see instead?

A failing test.

I don't understand why the kernel is ignoring the requested change. What version of the kernel are you running?

I don't understand why the kernel is ignoring the requested change. What version of the kernel are you running?

In the build system where I first saw the issue we have right now this version:

5.16.7-200.fc35.armv7hl+lpae

In the virtual machine where I can reproduce it:

5.14.10-300.fc35.armv7hl

Both are the standard packages that Fedora 35 and Fedora 36 ship.

I think this test is more trouble than it's worth.

It's more trouble than it's worth. New code should be using x/sys/unix
anyhow.

Fixes #40564
Fixes #51479
