58.Sh DESCRIPTION
59This section describes the functions used to create, set, use and destroy
60the dynamic CPU sets.
61.Pp
62This API can be used with the POSIX threads, see
63.Xr pthread 3
64and
65.Xr affinity 3 .
66.Pp
67The ID of the primary CPU in the system is 0.
68.Sh FUNCTIONS
69.Bl -tag -width compact
70.It Fn cpuset_create
71Allocates and initializes a clean CPU-set.
72Returns the pointer to the CPU-set, or
73.Dv NULL
74on failure.
75.It Fn cpuset_destroy set
76Destroy the CPU-set specified by
77.Fa set .
78.It Fn cpuset_zero set
79Makes the CPU-set specified by
80.Fa set
81clean, that is, memory is initialized to zero bytes, and none of
82the CPUs set.
83.It Fn cpuset_set cpu set
84Sets the CPU specified by
85.Fa cpu
86in
87.Fa set .
88Returns zero on success, and \-1 if
89.Fa cpu
90is invalid.
91.It Fn cpuset_clr cpu set
92Clears the CPU specified by
93.Fa cpu
94in the CPU-set
95.Fa set .
96Returns zero on success, and \-1 if
97.Fa cpu
98is invalid.
99.It Fn cpuset_isset cpu set
100Checks if CPU specified by
101.Fa cpu
102is set in the CPU-set
103.Fa set .
104Returns the positive number if set, zero if not set, and \-1 if
105.Fa cpu
106is invalid.
107.It Fn cpuset_size set
108Returns the size in bytes of CPU-set specified by
109.Fa set .
