CPU affinity still does not set correctly in v3.9.2.3. In Task Manager, it seems it still can't affine CPUs above CPU31. Also, some CPUs not specified in the mask are set.
Setting --cpu-affinity=0x55555545555544 with 56 CPUs:
Enough with the overly complex test cases. I've said it before DEFAULTS!
This CPU affinity crap is starting to piss me off. That's not what I came back for.
It's taking way too much of my time.
This all started with a request to support CPU groups on Windows. Windows is a
commercial product: it costs money to use it and takes even more money to
develop on it and for it. Enterprise level development (multi-socket, large thread
counts, NUMA, CPU groups, etc) costs even more.
Yet I don't get paid a penny.
From now on any requests for features specific to Windows must be accompanied
by a nominal non-refundable donation. I will do an assessment and determine if I can
do it with my skill level and resources and how much work may be involved. I will
then set a fee payable on completion. The fee will be scaled based on whether the
feature is for consumers or enterprises.
CPU groups is an enterprise feature. I will make one more attempt to fix the current
issues. If that fails I wlll remove the CPU Groups support and revert to v3.8.8.1 affinity..
