Not for the faint of heart, but there is a syscall in perl. To hack a sched_setaffinity call, one might:
#! /usr/bin/perl
sub setaffinity {
use Config;
die if "@Config{qw(ptrsize archname)}" !~ /8.*x86_64.*linux/;
my $mask = pack "Q", shift;
syscall 203, 0, 8, $mask;
}
setaffinity 0x22; # allow cores/threads 1 and 5
fork for 1..3; # 8 workers
1 while 1; # busy we are
To easily find out the linux syscall numbers, I recommend looking at strace sources: there are syscallent.h headers for each architecture.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
