 * FAIR WARNING: Do NOT expect to be able to figure out all the
 * subtleties of hwloc by simply reading function prototypes and
 * constant descrptions here in this file.
 *
 * Hwloc has wonderful documentation in both PDF and HTML formats for
 * your reading pleasure.  The formal documentation explains a LOT of
 * hwloc-specific concepts, provides definitions, and discusses the
 * "big picture" for many of the things that you'll find here in this
 * header file.
 *
 * The PDF/HTML documentation was generated via Doxygen; much of what
 * you'll see in there is also here in this file.  BUT THERE IS A LOT
 * THAT IS IN THE PDF/HTML THAT IS ***NOT*** IN hwloc.h!
 *
 * There are entire paragraph-length descriptions, discussions, and
 * pretty prictures to explain subtle corner cases, provide concrete
 * examples, etc.
 *
 * Please, go read the documentation.  :-)
 *
 * Moreover there are several examples of hwloc use under doc/examples
 * in the source tree.

 * Hwloc uses bitmaps to represent two distinct kinds of object sets:
 * CPU sets (::hwloc_cpuset_t) and NUMA node sets (::hwloc_nodeset_t).
 * These types are both typedefs to a common back end type
 * (::hwloc_bitmap_t), and therefore all the hwloc bitmap functions
 * are applicable to both ::hwloc_cpuset_t and ::hwloc_nodeset_t (see
 * \ref hwlocality_bitmap).
 *
 * The rationale for having two different types is that even though
 * the actions one wants to perform on these types are the same (e.g.,
 * enable and disable individual items in the set/mask), they're used
 * in very different contexts: one for specifying which processors to
 * use and one for specifying which NUMA nodes to use.  Hence, the
 * name difference is really just to reflect the intent of where the
 * type is used.

 * is free to run the task on one of these PU, then migrate it to another PU, etc.
 * It is often useful to call hwloc_bitmap_singlify() on the target CPU set before
 * passing it to the binding function to avoid these expensive migrations.
 * See the documentation of hwloc_bitmap_singlify() for details.
 *
 * Some operating systems do not provide all hwloc-supported
 * mechanisms to bind processes, threads, etc.
 * hwloc_topology_get_support() may be used to query about the actual CPU
 * binding support in the currently used operating system.
 *
 * When the requested binding operation is not available and the
 * ::HWLOC_CPUBIND_STRICT flag was passed, the function returns -1.
 * \p errno is set to \c ENOSYS when it is not possible to bind the requested kind of object
 * processes/threads. errno is set to \c EXDEV when the requested cpuset
 * can not be enforced (e.g. some systems only allow one CPU, and some
 * other systems only allow one NUMA node).
 *
 * If ::HWLOC_CPUBIND_STRICT was not passed, the function may fail as well,
 * or the operating system may use a slightly different operation
 * (with side-effects, smaller binding set, etc.)
 * when the requested operation is not exactly supported.
 *
 * The most portable version that should be preferred over the others,
 * whenever possible, is the following one which just binds the current program,
 * assuming it is single-threaded:
 *
 * \code
 * hwloc_set_cpubind(topology, set, 0),
 * \endcode
 *
 * If the program may be multithreaded, the following one should be preferred
 * to only bind the current thread:
 *
 * \code
 * hwloc_set_cpubind(topology, set, HWLOC_CPUBIND_THREAD),
 * \endcode
 *
 * \sa Some example codes are available under doc/examples/ in the source tree.
 *
 * \note To unbind, just call the binding function with either a full cpuset or
 * a cpuset equal to the system cpuset.
 *
 * \note On some operating systems, CPU binding may have effects on memory binding, see
 * ::HWLOC_CPUBIND_NOMEMBIND

/** \defgroup hwlocality_membinding Memory binding
 *
 * Memory binding can be done three ways:
 *
 * - explicit memory allocation thanks to hwloc_alloc_membind() and friends:
 *   the binding will have effect on the memory allocated by these functions.
 * - implicit memory binding through binding policy: hwloc_set_membind() and
 *   friends only define the current policy of the process, which will be
 *   applied to the subsequent calls to malloc() and friends.
 * - migration of existing memory ranges, thanks to hwloc_set_area_membind()
 *   and friends, which move already-allocated data.
 *
 * Not all operating systems support all three ways.
 * hwloc_topology_get_support() may be used to query about the actual memory
 * binding support in the currently used operating system.
 *
 * When the requested binding operation is not available and the
 * ::HWLOC_MEMBIND_STRICT flag was passed, the function returns -1.
 * \p errno will be set to \c ENOSYS when the system does support
 * the specified action or policy
 * (e.g., some systems only allow binding memory on a per-thread
 * basis, whereas other systems only allow binding memory for all
 * threads in a process).
 * \p errno will be set to EXDEV when the requested set can not be enforced
 * (e.g., some systems only allow binding memory to a single NUMA node).
 *
 * If ::HWLOC_MEMBIND_STRICT was not passed, the function may fail as well,
 * or the operating system may use a slightly different operation
 * (with side-effects, smaller binding set, etc.)
 * when the requested operation is not exactly supported.
 *
 * The most portable form that should be preferred over the others
 * whenever possible is as follows.
 * It allocates some memory hopefully bound to the specified set.
 * To do so, hwloc will possibly have to change the current memory
 * binding policy in order to actually get the memory bound, if the OS
 * does not provide any other way to simply allocate bound memory
 * without changing the policy for all allocations. That is the
 * difference with hwloc_alloc_membind(), which will never change the
 * current memory binding policy.
 *
 * \code
 * hwloc_alloc_membind_policy(topology, size, set,
 *                            HWLOC_MEMBIND_BIND, 0);
 * \endcode
 *
 * Each hwloc memory binding function is available in two forms: one
 * that takes a bitmap argument (a CPU set by default, or a NUMA memory
 * node set if the flag ::HWLOC_MEMBIND_BYNODESET is specified),
 * and another one (whose name ends with _nodeset) that always takes
 * a NUMA memory node set.
 * See \ref hwlocality_object_sets and \ref hwlocality_bitmap for a
 * discussion of CPU sets and NUMA memory node sets.
 * It is also possible to convert between CPU set and node set using
 * hwloc_cpuset_to_nodeset() or hwloc_cpuset_from_nodeset().
 *
 * Memory binding by CPU set cannot work for CPU-less NUMA memory nodes.
 * Binding by nodeset should therefore be preferred whenever possible.
 *
 * \sa Some example codes are available under doc/examples/ in the source tree.
 *
 * \note On some operating systems, memory binding affects the CPU
 * binding; see ::HWLOC_MEMBIND_NOCPUBIND
