/* t_sched_setaffinity.c

   Usage: t_sched_setaffinity pid mask

   Set the CPU affinity of the process identified by 'pid' according
   to the given 'mask'. For example, the following specifies that the
   given process should run on any but the first CPU of a 4-CPU system:

        t_sched_setaffinity <pid> 0xe

                (0xe = 1110 binary)

   See also t_sched_getaffinity.c.

   This program is Linux-specific. The CPU affinity system calls are provided
   since kernel 2.6.
