DESCRIPTION
     The psrset utility  controls  the  management  of  processor
     sets.  Processor sets allow the binding of processes or LWPs
     to groups of processors, rather than just a  single  proces-
     sor. Processors assigned to processor sets can run only LWPs
     that have been bound to that processor set.

     This command cannot be used to modify processor  disposition
     when  pools  are enabled. Use pooladm(1M) and poolcfg(1M) to
     modify processor  set  configuration  through  the  resource
     pools facility.

OPTIONS
     The following options are supported:

     -a       Assign the specified processors  to  the  specified
              processor  set.  With the additional -F option, all
              LWPs bound to  the  specified  processors  will  be
              unbound prior to changing processor sets.

System Administration Commands                         psrset(1M)



              This option is restricted to use by the super-user.



     -b       Bind all or a subset of the LWPs of  the  specified
              processes to the specified processor set.

              LWPs bound to a processor set are restricted to run
              only  on  the processors in that set. Processes can
              only be bound to non-empty processor sets, that is,
              processor sets that have had processors assigned to
              them.

              Bindings are inherited, so new LWPs  and  processes
              created by a bound LWP have the same binding. Bind-
              ing an interactive shell to a processor, for  exam-
              ple, binds all commands executed by the shell.

              This option is restricted to use by the super-user.



     -c       Create a new processor set  and  displays  the  new
              processor  set  ID.  With the additional -F option,
              all LWPs bound to the specified processors will  be
              unbound  prior  to  assigning them to the processor
              set being created.

              If a list of processors is given, it also  attempts
              to assign those processors to the processor set. If
              this succeeds, the processors are idle  until  LWPs
              are bound to the processor set. This option is res-
              tricted to use by the super-user.

              Only a limited number  of  processor  sets  can  be
              active (created and not destroyed) at a given time.
              This limit is always be greater than the number  of
              processors  in the system. If the -c option is used
              when  the  maximum  number  of  processor  sets  is
              already active, the command fails.

              The following format is used for the first line  of
              output of the -c option when the LC_MESSAGES locale
              category  specifies  the  "C"  locale.   In   other
              locales,  the  strings  created, processor, and set
              can  be  replaced  with  more  appropriate  strings
              corresponding to the locale.

              "created processor set %d\n" processor set ID

System Administration Commands                         psrset(1M)



     -d       Remove the specified processor set,  releasing  all
              processors and processes associated with it.

              This option is restricted to use by the super-user.



     -e       Execute a command (with optional arguments) in  the
              specified processor set.

              The command process and  any  child  processes  are
              executed only by processors in the processor set.

              This option is restricted to use by the super-user.



     -f       Disables interrupts for all processors  within  the
              specified processor set. See psradm(1M).

              If some processors in the  set  cannot  have  their
              interrupts  disabled,  the  other  processors still
              have their interrupts  disabled,  and  the  command
              reports an error and return non-zero exit status.

              This option is restricted to use by the super-user.



     -F       Forces the specified  processor  set  operation  by
              unbinding  all  threads bound to the specified pro-
              cessor.  Only the -a or the -r option can  be  used
              in combination with this option. Administrators are
              encouraged to use the -Q option  for  pbind(1M)  to
              find  out  which  threads  will be affected by such
              operation.



     -i       Display a list of processors assigned to each named
              processor  set.  If no argument is given, a list of
              all processor sets and the processors  assigned  to
              them is displayed.  This is also the default opera-
              tion if the psrset command is not given an option.



     -n       Enable interrupts for  all  processors  within  the
              specified processor set. See psradm(1M).

              This option is restricted to use by the super-user.

System Administration Commands                         psrset(1M)



     -p       Display  the  processor  set  assignments  for  the
              specified  list  of  processors.  If no argument is
              given, the processor set assignments for  all  pro-
              cessors in the system is given.



     -q       Display the processor set bindings of the specified
              processes or of all processes. If a process is com-
              posed of multiple LWPs which have  different  bind-
              ings and the LWPs are not explicitly specified, the
              bindings  of  only  one  of  the  bound   LWPs   is
              displayed.  The bindings of a subset of LWPs can be
              displayed by appending  "/lwpids"  to  the  process
              IDs.  Multiple  LWPs  may be selected using "-" and
              "," delimiters. See EXAMPLES.



     -Q       Display the LWPs bound to  the  specified  list  of
              processor  sets,  or  all  LWPs  with processor set
              bindings.



     -r       Remove a list of processors from their current pro-
              cessor  sets. Processors that are removed return to
              the general pool of processors.

              Processors with LWPs bound to them using  pbind(1M)
              can  be  assigned to or removed from processor sets
              using the -F option.

              This option is restricted to use by the super-user.



     -u       Remove the processor set bindings of  a  subset  or
              all  the  LWPs of the specified processes, allowing
              them to be executed on  any  on-line  processor  if
              they are not bound to individual processors through
              pbind.

              The super-user can unbind any process or  LWP  from
              any  active  processor  set. Other users can unbind
              processes and LWPs from processor sets that do  not
              have  the PSET_NOESCAPE attribute set. In addition,
              the  user  must  have  permission  to  control  the
              affected  processes;  the real or effective user ID
              of the user must match the real or saved user ID of
              the target processes.

System Administration Commands                         psrset(1M)



     -U       Removes the bindings  of  all  LWPs  bound  to  the
              specified list of processor sets, or to any proces-
              sor set if no argument is specified.



OPERANDS
     The following operands are supported:

     pid                     Specify pid as a process ID.

                             process to be controlled or queried.
                             The syntax for selecting LWP IDs  is
                             as follows:

                             2,3,4-8       LWP IDs 2, 3, and 4 through 8
                             -4            LWPs whose IDs are 4 or below
                             4-            LWPs whose IDs are 4 or above




     processor_id            Specify processor_id as  an  indivi-
                             dual  processor number (for example,
                             3),   multiple   processor   numbers
                             separated  by spaces (for example, 1
                             2  3),  or  a  range  of   processor
                             numbers  (for  example,  1-4). It is
                             also possible to combine ranges  and
                             (individual       or       multiple)
                             processor_ids (for  example,  1-3  5
                             7-8 9).



     processor_set_id        Specify processor_set_id as  a  pro-
                             cessor set ID.

DIAGNOSTICS
     The following output indicates that  the  specified  process
     did not exist or has exited:

     psrset: cannot query pid 31: No such process

     The following output indicates that the user does  not  have
     permission to bind the process:

     psrset: cannot bind pid 31: Not owner

     The following output indicates that the user does  not  have
     permission to assign the processor:

     psrset: cannot assign processor 4: Not owner

     The following output indicates that the specified  processor
     is not on-line, or the specified processor does not exist.

     psrset: cannot assign processor 8: Invalid argument

     The following output indicates that an LWP in the  specified
     process  is  bound  to  a processor and cannot be bound to a
     processor set that does not include that processor:

     psrset: cannot bind pid 67: Device busy

     The following output indicates that the specified  processor
     could  not be added to the processor set. This can be due to
     bound LWPs on that processor, or because that processor can-
     not be combined in the same processor set with other proces-
     sors in that set, or because the processor is the  last  one
     in its current processor set:
