I just tried on macOS 12.1 beta and getrlimit(RLIMIT_DATA) gives RLIM_INFINITY for both current and max (and so does my macOS 10.14 box).

On Monterey, using setrlimit() to reduce 'current' works for large numbers, but does return error for low numbers.  On my hardware at least, it starts to return error around 419 GB.
