We try to pass containers roughly the same rlimits as the host gets from the kernel. However, this means we'd set the RLIMIT_NOFILE to 4K. Which is quite limiting though, and is something we actually departed from in PID1: since 52d620757817bc0fa7de3ddbe43024544ced7ea0 we raise the limit substantially for all userspace. Given that nspawn is quite often invoked without proper PID1, let's raise the limits for container payloads the same way as we do from the real PID1 to its service payloads.
