Hello Jirka,
I have added --taskset options to hwloc-calc, hwloc-bind and lstopo. It
uses some new hwloc_cpuset_taskset_snprint/asprintf/sscanf() functions.
See the patch at:
https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/hwloc/changeset?new=2120%40trunk&old=2119%40trunk
(applies to trunk, but not to 1.0)
The easiest way for you to test it might be tomorrow's nightly tarball
(http://www.open-mpi.org/software/hwloc/nightly/trunk/).
