Why is RLIMIT_STACK lost after fork or exec on linux?

Question

Linux says that the rlimit of a process is kept intact after fork or exec. But I lose my RLIMIT_STACK in the child, either after fork or after exec. Anyone please explain?

Here are some descriptive results of my program.

// The parent has an RLIMIT_STACK like this

RLIMIT_STACK, soft - 10485760, hard - -1

// Immediately after the fork, the child loses his RLIMIT_STACK

In the child after fork, RLIMIT_STACK, soft - 1, hard - 1

// In the child, before exec, RLIMIT_STACK soft is again set to 10485760

RLIMIT_STACK is set to OK.

In the child after typing, RLIMIT_STACK, soft - 10485760, hard - 1 Children's pid = 3096

// After exec, the new process loses RLIMIT_STACK again

RLIMIT_STACK received, soft - -1, hard - -1
