DESCRIPTION

Sys::Hwloc::Cpuset is the Perl namespace used for struct hwloc_cpuset data prior hwloc-1.1.

Since hwloc-1.1, this class is replaced by Sys::Hwloc::Bitmap.

The Sys::Hwloc::Cpuset class provides an object-oriented interface for hwloc C functions that act on cpuset and nodeset objects. In particular, every hwloc C function that gets a hwloc_cpuset pointer as first argument has an OO-ish counterpart in Sys::Hwloc::Cpuset.

A Sys::Hwloc::Cpuset instance is created with hwloc_cpuset_alloc() or Sys::Hwloc::Cpuset->alloc().

The underlying C data must become freed with hwloc_cpuset_free() or $cpuset->free().

METHODS

Refer to http://www.open-mpi.org/projects/hwloc for the full specification.

This section lists only methods that are specific to Sys::Hwloc. These are methods, which have no pendants in the hwloc C API, or which behave differently compared to their hwloc C API counterparts.

alloc
  $set = Sys::Hwloc::Cpuset->alloc();

Allocates and returns a cpuset. Returns a new Sys::Hwloc::Cpuset instance on success, returns undef on error.

free
  $set->free();

Frees an allocated cpuset.

There is no automatic Perl destructor Sys::Hwloc::Cpuset::DESTROY. That means, if an initialized cpuset variable goes out of scope or gets another value assigned, the C cpuset is not freed. This conforms to the usage of the hwloc C API, but unfortunately not to the rules of OO in Perl.

ids
  @ids = $set->ids;

Returns the bits that are set in a cpuset as an array of unsigned numbers.

The method is a replacement of the hwloc C API macro pair hwloc_cpuset_foreach_begin and hwloc_cpuset_foreach_end.

The following example shows the use of the hwloc C API macros, and what the Perl ids method does:

  /* This is C */
  unsigned id;
  hwloc_cpuset_foreach_begin(id, set) {
    printf("id = %u\n", id);
  }
  hwloc_cpuset_foreach_end();

  # This is Perl
  foreach $id ($set->ids) {
    printf "id = %u\n", $id;
  }
sprintf_list
  $string = $set->sprintf_list

Returns a string containing the bits set in a cpuset as a comma-separated list of decimal numbers and ranges of numbers. The format conforms to the List Format of Linux cpusets, see cpuset(7).

This method is not part of the hwloc C API.

The following example script will print "0-7,16,17,24-27".

  $set = Sys::Hwloc::Cpuset->alloc;
  $set->set_range(0,7);
  $set->set_range(16,17);
  $set->set_range(24,27);
  printf "%s\n", $set->sprintf_list;
  $set->free;
from_liststring
  $rc = $set->from_liststring( $string );

Parses a Linux cpuset(7) list format ASCII string and stores it in cpuset $set.

Returns 0 on success, -1 on error. If error, the content of $set is undefined.

This method is not part of the hwloc C API. It is the reverse of $string = $set->sprintf_list.

includes
  $rc = $set->includes( $oset );

Tests wether $oset is part of $set.

This method is not part of the hwloc C API. It is equivalent to $oset->isincluded($set).

or
  $set->or( $oset );

ORes $set with $oset, similar to |=. In hwloc-0.9 this method is named orset.

The long version of this in pure hwloc-1.0 is:

  $tempset = hwloc_cpuset_alloc;
  hwloc_cpuset_or($tempset, $set, $oset);
  hwloc_cpuset_free($set);
  $set = $tempset;
and
  $set->and( $oset );

ANDs $set with $oset, similar to &=. In hwloc-0.9 this method is named andset.

The long version of this in pure hwloc-1.0 is:

  $tempset = hwloc_cpuset_alloc;
  hwloc_cpuset_and($tempset, $set, $oset);
  hwloc_cpuset_free($set);
  $set = $tempset;
andnot
  $set->andnot( $oset );

ANDs $set with the negation of $oset.

The long version of this in pure hwloc-1.0 is:

  $tempset = hwloc_cpuset_alloc;
  hwloc_cpuset_andnot($tempset, $set, $oset);
  hwloc_cpuset_free($set);
  $set = $tempset;
xor
  $set->xor( $oset );

XORes $set with $oset, similar to ^=. In hwloc-0.9 this method is named xorset.

The long version of this in pure hwloc-1.0 is:

  $tempset = hwloc_cpuset_alloc;
  hwloc_cpuset_xor($tempset, $set, $oset);
  hwloc_cpuset_free($set);
  $set = $tempset;
not
  $set->not;

Negates $set.

The long version of this in pure hwloc-1.0 is:

  $tempset = hwloc_cpuset_alloc;
  hwloc_cpuset_not($tempset, $set);
  hwloc_cpuset_free($set);
  $set = $tempset;
