NAME

runon - Runs a command on a specific CPU or processor set  

SYNOPSIS

runon cpu_num command [argument...]

runon -p pset_id [-x] command [argument...]


 

DESCRIPTION

The runon utility runs the specified command (command) on the specified CPU (cpu_num). The argument variable specifies any options or arguments for the specified command. All the threads created by the command inherit the CPU binding to the specified CPU (cpu_num), including threads created as the result of a fork.

If the -p option is used, the specified command is bound to a processor set rather than to a specific processor. Because a processor set can contain more than one processor, the -p option is useful for multi-threaded applications. In addition, you can use the -x option to specify exclusive access to a processor set.
 

OPTIONS

Binds to a processor set instead of a processor. You must specify the processor set identification number (pset_id), which is a unique integer that identifies the processor set and is returned by the pset_create command. Specifies exclusive use of a processor set.
