Below I posted a simple windows thread creation C++ routine which sets the processor affinity to two cores.

What I want is the equivalent code using hwloc. Sorry for being somewhat new to this but I'm not sure what

api calls are equivalent to the windows calls and I did search hwloc.h for "affinity" thinking the function call

would be easy to find. More specifically I'm wondered whats the equivalent of " CreateThread ", " SetThreadAffinityMask ",

" GetSystemInfo ", and " WaitForMultipleObjects " in hwloc.

CreateThread() and WaitForMultipleObjects() are not in hwloc since they have nothing to do with topologies.

DWORD_PTR m_id = 0;

DWORD_PTR m_mask = 1 << i;

m_threads[i] = CreateThread(NULL, 0, (LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE)threadMain, (LPVOID)i, NULL, &m_id);
SetThreadAffinityMask(m_threads[i], m_mask);

This will likely be something such as:

hwloc_bitmap_t bitmap = hwloc_bitmap_alloc();
hwloc_bitmap_set_only(bitmap, i);
hwloc_set_thread_cpubind(topology, m_threads[i], bitmap, 0);
hwloc_bitmap_free(bitmap);

To get the number of processors with hwloc, use something like:
hwloc_get_nbobjs_by_type(topology, HWLOC_OBJ_CORE);
or
hwloc_get_nbobjs_by_type(topology, HWLOC_OBJ_PU);
Then it depends if you want real cores (the former or hardware threads (the latter).
