# From the sched_setaffinity(2)'s man page:
# ~~~~
# The CPU affinity system calls were introduced in Linux kernel 2.5.8.
# The library interfaces were introduced in glibc 2.3.  Initially, the
# glibc interfaces included a cpusetsize argument.  In glibc 2.3.3,
# the cpuset size argument was removed, but this argument was
# restored in glibc 2.3.4.
# ~~~~

# In addition to that, some vendors ported the system call to 2.4
# kernels.

# Furthermore, when the function first appeared, the MASK argument was
# an unsigned long pointer, while later it was made into a cpu_set_t
# pointer.  Systems that have the cpu_set_t version also should have
# the CPU_ZERO, CPU_SET, etc. macros.

# All this mess means we have to cater for at least 3 different
# sched_setaffinity prototypes:

# ~~~~
#  int sched_setaffinity (pid_t pid, unsigned int len, unsigned long *mask);
#  int sched_setaffinity (pid_t __pid, size_t __cpusetsize, const cpu_set_t *__cpuset);
#  int sched_setaffinity (pid_t __pid, const cpu_set_t *__mask);
# ~~~~

# Since we define _GNU_SOURCE in the sources, must do so too in the
# autoconf tests, as defining _GNU_SOURCE or not exposes
# sched_setaffinity bits differently.
