31.Sh NAME
32.Nm cpuset_getaffinity ,
33.Nm cpuset_setaffinity
34.Nd manage CPU affinity
35.Sh LIBRARY
36.Lb libc
37.Sh SYNOPSIS
38.In sys/param.h
39.In sys/cpuset.h
40.Ft int
41.Fn cpuset_getaffinity "cpulevel_t level" "cpuwhich_t which" "id_t id" "size_t setsize" "cpuset_t *mask"
42.Ft int
43.Fn cpuset_setaffinity "cpulevel_t level" "cpuwhich_t which" "id_t id" "size_t setsize" "const cpuset_t *mask"
44.Sh DESCRIPTION
45.Fn cpuset_getaffinity
46and
47.Fn cpuset_setaffinity
48allow the manipulation of sets of CPUs available to processes, threads,
49interrupts, jails and other resources.
50These functions may manipulate sets of CPUs that contain many processes
51or per-object anonymous masks that effect only a single object.
52.Pp
53The valid values for the
54.Fa level
55and
56.Fa which
57arguments are documented in
58.Xr cpuset 2 .
59These arguments specify which object and which set of the object we are
60referring to.
61Not all possible combinations are valid.
62For example, only processes may belong to a numbered set accessed by a
63.Fa level
64argument of
65.Dv CPU_LEVEL_CPUSET .
66All resources, however, have a mask which may be manipulated with
67.Dv CPU_LEVEL_WHICH .
68.Pp
69Masks of type
70.Ft cpuset_t
71are composed using the
72.Dv CPU_SET
73macros.
74If the user-supplied mask is not large enough to fit all of the matching CPUs,
75.Fn cpuset_getaffinity
76fails with
77.Er ERANGE .
78Calls to
79.Fn cpuset_setaffinity
80tolerate masks of any size with no restrictions.
81The kernel uses the meaningful part of the mask, where the upper bound is
82the maximum CPU id present in the system.
83If bits for non-existing CPUs are set, calls to
84.Fn cpuset_setaffinity
85fail with
86.Er EINVAL .
87.Pp
88The supplied mask should have a size of
89.Fa setsize
90bytes.
91This size is usually provided by calling
92.Li sizeof(mask)
93which is ultimately determined by the value of
94.Dv CPU_SETSIZE
95as defined in
96.In sys/cpuset.h .
97.Pp
98.Fn cpuset_getaffinity
99retrieves the
100mask from the object specified by
101.Fa level ,
102.Fa which
103and
104.Fa id
105and stores it in the space provided by
106.Fa mask .
107.Pp
108.Fn cpuset_setaffinity
109attempts to set the mask for the object specified by
110.Fa level ,
111.Fa which
112and
113.Fa id
114to the value in
115.Fa mask .
116.Sh RETURN VALUES
117.Rv -std
118.Sh ERRORS
119The following error codes may be set in
120.Va errno :
121.Bl -tag -width Er
122.\" When changing this list, consider updating share/man/man3/pthread_create.3,
123.\" since that function can return any of these errors.
124.It Bq Er EINVAL
125The
126.Fa level
127or
128.Fa which
129argument was not a valid value.
130.It Bq Er EINVAL
131The
132.Fa mask
133argument specified when calling
134.Fn cpuset_setaffinity
135was not a valid value.
136.It Bq Er EDEADLK
137The
138.Fn cpuset_setaffinity
139call would leave a thread without a valid CPU to run on because the set
140does not overlap with the thread's anonymous mask.
141.It Bq Er EFAULT
142The mask pointer passed was invalid.
143.It Bq Er ESRCH
144The object specified by the
145.Fa id
146and
147.Fa which
148arguments could not be found.
149.It Bq Er ERANGE
150The
151.Fa cpusetsize
152was smaller than needed to fit all of the matching CPUs.
153.It Bq Er EPERM
154The calling process did not have the credentials required to complete the
155operation.
156.It Bq Er ECAPMODE
157The calling process attempted to act on a process other than itself, while
158in capability mode.
