[X] that I haven't found another request for this feature.
[X] that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available that
contain this feature already.
Description
Since some games require a number of files open per process higher than the default values, it would be a good idea to have it increased without having to troubleshoot and modify it yourself.
Default values can be found with the following commands in a terminal:
ulimit -Sn # soft limit; can be raised up to the hard limit
ulimit -Hn # hard limit
By default, these values are respectively 1024 and 4096.
For certain games, it results in a bug that you can find in the standard output or the log(s):
eventfd: Too many open files
Justification
The modifications of the defaults limits values is necessary to play some games or it results in a crash of the game.
Risks
If set values are too high, could lower the security against fork bombs.
