Hi,
CAP_SYS_ADMIN: exceed /proc/sys/fs/file-max
Quick note: you can change that particular limit via the systemd .service file (LimitNOFILE= – see "man systemd.exec").
rsyslog thus doesn't need that cap. Also, on my mostly-vanilla system, $ ulimit -n -H 1048576 $I hesitate to speculate why rsyslog would need more than a million file descriptors …
