  72. <dt><em>Description</em>:</dt>
  73. <dd><p>Binds threads to specific CPUs. The variable should contain a space-separated
  74. or comma-separated list of CPUs. This list may contain different kinds of
  75. entries: either single CPU numbers in any order, a range of CPUs (M-N)
  76. or a range with some stride (M-N:S). CPU numbers are zero based. For example,
  77. <code>GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY=&quot;0 3 1-2 4-15:2&quot;</code> will bind the initial thread
  78. to CPU 0, the second to CPU 3, the third to CPU 1, the fourth to
  79. CPU 2, the fifth to CPU 4, the sixth through tenth to CPUs 6, 8, 10, 12,
  80. and 14 respectively and then start assigning back from the beginning of
  81. the list. <code>GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY=0</code> binds all threads to CPU 0.
  82. </p>
  83. <p>There is no libgomp library routine to determine whether a CPU affinity
  84. specification is in effect. As a workaround, language-specific library
  85. functions, e.g., <code>getenv</code> in C or <code>GET_ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE</code> in
  86. Fortran, may be used to query the setting of the <code>GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY</code>
  87. environment variable. A defined CPU affinity on startup cannot be changed
  88. or disabled during the runtime of the application.
  89. </p>
  90. <p>If both <code>GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY</code> and <code>OMP_PROC_BIND</code> are set,
  91. <code>OMP_PROC_BIND</code> has a higher precedence. If neither has been set and
  92. <code>OMP_PROC_BIND</code> is unset, or when <code>OMP_PROC_BIND</code> is set to
  93. <code>FALSE</code>, the host system will handle the assignment of threads to CPUs.
