runon(1) General Commands Manual runon(1) 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 in- herit 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 spec- ify 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 inte- ger that identifies the processor set and is returned by the pset_cre- ate command. Specifies exclusive use of a processor set. SEE ALSO Commands: pset_assign_cpu(1), pset_assign_pid(1), pset_create(1), pset_info(1), psradm(8) Files: processor_sets(4) runon(1)
