For a larger number of CPUs, it's a bit of a bother having to set
each one individually. Plus, you typically want to bind to a range of
CPUs, to keep the job core local (or whatever your preference). So extend
cpus_allowed to take ranges of CPU numbers as well. Now you can do:
cpus_allowed=0-7
and have your job confined to CPUs 0 through 7.

cpus_allowed=str Controls the same options as cpumask, but it allows a text
setting of the permitted CPUs instead. So to use CPUs 1 and
cpus_allowed=str Controls the same options as cpumask, but it allows a text
setting of the permitted CPUs instead. So to use CPUs 1 and
- 5, you would specify cpus_allowed=1,5.
+ 5, you would specify cpus_allowed=1,5. This options also

+ 1, 5, and 8-15, you would set cpus_allowed=1,5,8-15.
