<h2 id="_description">DESCRIPTION</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
2009-12-08 04:52:22 +00:00
<div class="paragraph"><p>This command is used to run and manage arbitrary processes on
specified cpusets. It is also used to move pre-existing processes and
threads to specified cpusets. You may note there is no "kill" or
2009-12-08 04:52:22 +00:00
"destroy" option&#8201;&#8212;&#8201;use the standard OS ^C or kill commands for that.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>To list which tasks are running in a particular cpuset, use the --list
command.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>For example:</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p><strong><tt># cset proc --list --set myset</tt></strong></p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>This command will list all the tasks running in the cpuset called
"myset".</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Processes are created by specifying the path to the executable
and specifying the cpuset that the process is to be created in.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>For example:</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p><strong><tt># cset proc --set=blazing_cpuset --exec /usr/bin/fast_code</tt></strong></p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>This command will execute the /usr/bin/fast_code program on the
"blazing_cpuset" cpuset.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Note that if your command takes options, then use the traditional
"--" marker to separate cset&#8217;s options from your command&#8217;s options.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>For example:</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p><strong><tt># cset proc --set myset --exec&#8201;&#8212;&#8201;ls -l</tt></strong></p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>This command will execute "ls -l" on the cpuset called "myset".</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The PIDSPEC argument taken for the move command is a comma
separated list of PIDs or TIDs. The list can also include
brackets of PIDs or TIDs (i.e. tasks) that are inclusive of the
2009-12-08 04:52:22 +00:00
endpoints.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>For example:</p></div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><tt>1,2,5 Means processes 1, 2 and 5
1,2,600-700 Means processes 1, 2 and from 600 to 700</tt></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="admonitionblock">
<table><tr>
<td class="icon">
<div class="title">Note</div>
</td>
<td class="content">The range of PIDs or TIDs does not need to have every
position populated. In other words, for the example above, if
there is only one process, say PID 57, in the range of 50-65,
then only that process will be moved.</td>
</tr></table>
</div>
2009-12-08 04:52:22 +00:00
<div class="paragraph"><p>To move a PIDSPEC to a specific cpuset, you can either specify
the PIDSPEC with --pid and the destination cpuset with --toset,
or use the short hand and list the cpuset name after the PIDSPEC
2009-12-08 04:52:22 +00:00
for the --move arguments.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The move command accepts multiple common calling methods.
For example, the following commands are equivalent:</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p><strong><tt># cset proc --move 2442,3000-3200 reserved_set</tt></strong></p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p><strong><tt># cset proc --move --pid=2442,3000-3200 --toset=reserved_set</tt></strong></p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>These commands move the tasks defined as 2442 and any running task
between 3000 and 3200 inclusive of the ends to the cpuset called
2009-12-08 04:52:22 +00:00
"reserved_set".</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Specifying the --fromset is not necessary since the tasks will be
moved to the destination cpuset no matter which cpuset they are
2009-12-08 04:52:22 +00:00
currently running on.</p></div>
<div class="admonitionblock">
<table><tr>
<td class="icon">
<div class="title">Note</div>
</td>
<td class="content">However, if you do specify a cpuset with the --fromset
option, then only those tasks that are both in the PIDSPEC <strong>and</strong>
are running in the cpuset specified by --fromset will be moved.
I.e., if there is a task running on the system but not in
--fromset that is in PIDSPEC, it will not be moved.</td>
</tr></table>
</div>
2009-12-08 04:52:22 +00:00
<div class="paragraph"><p>If the --threads switch is used, then the proc command will
gather any threads of belonging to any processes or threads that
are specified in the PIDSPEC and move them. This provides an easy
way to move all related threads: just pick one TID from the set
and use the --threads option.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>To move all userspace tasks from one cpuset to another, you need
to specify the source and destination cpuset by name.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>For example:</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p><strong><tt># cset proc --move --fromset=comp1 --toset=comp42</tt></strong></p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>This command specifies that all processes and threads
running on cpuset "comp1" be moved to cpuset "comp42".</p></div>
<div class="admonitionblock">
<table><tr>
<td class="icon">
<div class="title">Note</div>
</td>
<td class="content">This move command will not move kernel threads unless
the -k/--kthread switch is specified. If it is, then all unbound
kernel threads will be added to the move. Unbound kernel threads
are those that can run on any CPU. If you <strong>also specify</strong> the
2009-12-08 04:52:22 +00:00
--force switch, then all tasks, kernel or not, bound or not,
will be moved.</td>
</tr></table>
</div>
<div class="admonitionblock">
<table><tr>
<td class="icon">
<div class="title">Caution</div>
</td>
2009-12-08 04:52:22 +00:00
<td class="content">Please be cautious with the --force switch, since moving
a kernel thread that is bound to a specific CPU to a cpuset that
does not include that CPU can cause a system hang.</td>
</tr></table>
</div>
2009-12-08 04:52:22 +00:00
<div class="paragraph"><p>You must specify unique cpuset names for the both exec and move
commands. If a simple name passed to the --fromset, --toset and
--set parameters is unique on the system then that command
executes. However, if there are multiple cpusets by that name,
then you will need to specify which one you mean with a full path
2009-12-08 04:52:22 +00:00
rooted at the base cpuset tree.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>For example, suppose you have the following cpuset tree:</p></div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><tt>/cpusets
/group1
/myset
/yourset
/group2
/myset
/yourset</tt></pre>
</div></div>
2009-12-08 04:52:22 +00:00
<div class="paragraph"><p>Then, to move a process from myset in group1 to yourset in
group2, you would have to issue the following command:</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p><tt># cset proc --move --pid=50 --fromset=/group1/myset --toset=/group2/yourset</tt></p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>You do not have to worry about where in the Linux filesystem the
cpuset filesystem is mounted. The cset command takes care of that.
2009-12-08 04:52:22 +00:00
Any cpusets that are specified by path (such as above), are done with
respect to the root of the cpuset filesystem.</p></div>
