taskset [options] [mask |list] [pid |command [args] ]

The Linux scheduler will then honor the given affinity mask, ensuring that the process in question runs only on allowed processors.
Options
The affinity mask will be provided in list form, for example, "0,2,5-6," not as a bitmask.
Set or retrieve the mask of the given PID. Do not start a new process.
