Unit for docker module parameter 'memory_limit'

Hi:

What is the syntax to specify ‘memory_limit’ in the docker module?

According to Docker documentation[1], its passed
like so:
256b, 256k,256m or 256g
I see that according to the docker module doc its passed as 256MB? or should we follow the syntax as outlines in the Docker CLI?

An example would be nice.

Thanks,

[1]

-m, --memory=""            Memory limit (format: <number><optional unit>, where unit = b, k, m or g)
2

in the docs it indicates an example default of 256 MB.

The example code in question contributed with the docker modoule

suffixes = [‘B’, ‘KB’, ‘MB’, ‘GB’, ‘TB’, ‘PB’]

The docker CLI seems a bit non-standard in the regard of just using a single letter, so this seems ok to me.

I suspect nobody has used that petabyte setting.
