How to get possible CPUS in Ubuntu 14.04 or 16.04












0















I have a process which is pinned on core 1. I have written the below function to get the affinity.



count_cpu_cores()
{
long int n_cores;
n_cores = sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF);
if (n_cores > 0) {
cpu_set_t *set = CPU_ALLOC(n_cores);
if (set) {
size_t size = CPU_ALLOC_SIZE(n_cores);
if (!sched_getaffinity(146244, size, set)) {
printf("enter sched affinityn");
n_cores = CPU_COUNT_S(size, set);
}
CPU_FREE(set);
}
printf("n_cores-%d",n_cores);
}


When i print ncores , it give me value of 32 which is incorrect. On further debugging i find that
sched_getaffinity return EINVAL as it is expecting the greater size. Now when i hardcode n_cores
to be 144 which is the number in possible cpus as below. I get the correct value of the number of
CPUS that is 1. How can i fix this problem in my program without hardcoding ?



sdn@dell33:~$ cd /sys/devices/system/cpu 
sdn@dell33:/sys/devices/system/cpu$ ls
cpu0 cpu12 cpu16 cpu2 cpu23 cpu27 cpu30 cpu6 cpufreq kernel_max online uevent
