CPUSET(1) FreeBSD General Commands Manual CPUSET(1) NAME cpuset -- configure processor sets SYNOPSIS cpuset [-l cpu-list] [-s setid] cmd ... cpuset [-l cpu-list] [-s setid] -p pid cpuset [-c] [-l cpu-list] -C -p pid cpuset [-c] [-l cpu-list] [-j jailid | -p pid | -t tid | -s setid | -x irq] cpuset -g [-cir] [-d domain | -j jailid | -p pid | -t tid | -s setid | -x irq] DESCRIPTION The cpuset command can be used to assign processor sets to processes, run commands constrained to a given set or list of processors, and query information about processor binding, sets, and available processors in the system. cpuset requires a target to modify or query. The target may be specified as a command, process id, thread id, a cpuset id, an irq, a jail id, or a NUMA domain. Using -g the target's set id or mask may be queried. Using -l or -s the target's CPU mask or set id may be set. If no target is specified, cpuset operates on itself. Not all combinations of operations and targets are supported. For example, you may not set the id of an existing set or query and launch a command at the same time. There are two sets applicable to each process and one private mask per thread. Every process in the system belongs to a cpuset. By default processes are started in set 1. The mask or id may be queried using -c. Each thread also has a private mask of CPUs it is allowed to run on that must be a subset of the assigned set. And finally, there is a root set, numbered 0, that is immutable. This last set is the list of all possible CPUs in the system and is queried using -r. When running a command it may join a set specified with -s otherwise a new set is created. In addition, a mask for the command may be specified using -l. When used in conjunction with -c the mask modifies the sup- plied or created set rather than the private mask for the thread. The options are as follows: -C Create a new cpuset and assign the target process to that set. -c The requested operation should reference the cpuset avail- able via the target specifier. -d domain Specifies a NUMA domain id as the target of the operation. -g Causes cpuset to print either a list of valid CPUs or, using -i, the id of the target. -i When used with the -g option print the id rather than the valid mask of the target. -j jailid Specifies a jail id as the target of the operation. -l cpu-list Specifies a list of CPUs to apply to a target. Specifica- tion may include numbers separated by '-' for ranges and commas separating individual numbers. A special list of ``all'' may be specified in which case the list includes all CPUs from the root set. -p pid Specifies a pid as the target of the operation. -s setid Specifies a set id as the target of the operation. -r The requested operation should reference the root set avail- able via the target specifier. -t tid Specifies a thread id as the target of the operation. -x irq Specifies an irq as the target of the operation. EXIT STATUS The cpuset utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs. EXAMPLES Create a new group with CPUs 0-4 inclusive and run /bin/sh on it: cpuset -c -l 0-4 /bin/sh Query the mask of CPUs the <sh pid> is allowed to run on: cpuset -g -p <sh pid> Restrict /bin/sh to run on CPUs 0 and 2 while its group is still allowed to run on CPUs 0-4: cpuset -l 0,2 -p <sh pid> Modify the cpuset /bin/sh belongs to restricting it to CPUs 0 and 2: cpuset -l 0,2 -c -p <sh pid> Modify the cpuset all threads are in by default to contain only the first 4 CPUs, leaving the rest idle: cpuset -l 0-3 -s 1 Print the id of the cpuset /bin/sh is in: cpuset -g -i -p <sh pid> Move the pid into the specified cpuset setid so it may be managed with other pids in that set: cpuset -s <setid> -p <pid> Create a new cpuset that is restricted to CPUs 0 and 2 and move pid into the new set: cpuset -C -c -l 0,2 -p <pid> SEE ALSO cpuset(2) HISTORY The cpuset command first appeared in FreeBSD 7.1.
