I'm trying to set my real-time priority to unlimited on my CentOS 7 (CentOS Linux release 7.9.2009 (Core)) image running in Docker.

I'm executing (as root):

ulimit -r unlimited

I'm receiving the following error:

bash: ulimit: real-time priority: cannot modify limit: Operation not permitted

I pulled the centos 7 container from https://hub.docker.com/_/centos.

When executing ulimit -a, I'm met with

core file size          (blocks, -c) unlimited
data seg size           (kbytes, -d) unlimited
scheduling priority             (-e) 0

virtual memory          (kbytes, -v) unlimited

Is setting the real-time priority to something other than zero even feasible in the docker container?
