=head1 DESCRIPTION

Sys::Hwloc::Bitmap is the Perl namespace used for I<struct hwloc_cpuset>
and I<struct hwloc_nodeset> data since hwloc-1.1.

Before hwloc-1.1, similar functionality was provided by L<Sys::Hwloc::Cpuset>.

The Sys::Hwloc::Bitmap class provides an object-oriented interface
for hwloc C functions that act on bitmap objects. In particular,
every hwloc C function that gets a I<hwloc_bitmap> pointer as first argument
has an OO-ish counterpart in Sys::Hwloc::Bitmap.

A Sys::Hwloc::Bitmap instance is created with B<hwloc_bitmap_alloc()> or
B<Sys::Hwloc::Bitmap-E<gt>alloc()>.

The underlying C data must become freed with B<hwloc_bitmap_free()> or
B<$bitmap-E<gt>free()>.

=head1 METHODS

Refer to L<http://www.open-mpi.org/projects/hwloc> for the full specification.

This section lists only methods that are specific to Sys::Hwloc. These are
methods, which have no pendants in the hwloc C API, or which behave differently
compared to their hwloc C API counterparts.

=over 4

=item B<alloc>

  $map = Sys::Hwloc::Bitmap->alloc();

Allocates and returns a bitmap. Returns a new Sys::Hwloc::Bitmap instance
on success, returns I<undef> on error.

=item B<free>

  $set->free();

Frees an allocated bitmap.

There is no automatic Perl destructor Sys::Hwloc::Bitmap::DESTROY.
That means, if an initialized bitmap variable goes out of scope or gets another value assigned,
the C bitmap is not freed. This conforms to the usage of the hwloc C API,
but unfortunately not to the rules of OO in Perl.

=item B<ids>

  @ids = $map->ids;

Returns the bits that are set in a bitmap as an array of unsigned numbers.

The method is a replacement of the hwloc C API macro pair B<hwloc_bitmap_foreach_begin> and B<hwloc_bitmap_foreach_end>.

The following example shows the use of the hwloc C API macros, and what the Perl B<ids> method does:

  /* This is C */
  unsigned id;
  hwloc_bitmap_foreach_begin(id, map) {
    printf("id = %u\n", id);
  }
  hwloc_bitmap_foreach_end();

  # This is Perl
  foreach $id ($map->ids) {
    printf "id = %u\n", $id;
  }

=item B<sprintf_list>

  $string = $map->sprintf_list

Returns a string containing the bits set in a bitmap as a comma-separated list of decimal numbers and ranges of numbers.
The format conforms to the B<List Format> of Linux cpusets, see L<cpuset>(7).

This method is currently not part of the hwloc C API.

The following example script will print "0-7,16,17,24-27".

  $map = Sys::Hwloc::Bitmap->alloc;
  $map->set_range(0,7);
  $map->set_range(16,17);
  $map->set_range(24,27);
  printf "%s\n", $map->sprintf_list;
  $map->free;

=item B<sscanf_list>

  $rc = $map->sscanf_list( $string );

Parses a Linux L<cpuset>(7) list format ASCII string and stores it in bitmap $map.

Returns 0 on success, -1 on error. If error, the content of $map is undefined.

This method is currently not part of the hwloc C API. It is the reverse of B<$string = $map-E<gt>sprintf_list>.

=item B<includes>

  $rc = $map->includes( $omap );

Tests wether $omap is part of $map.

This method is not part of the hwloc C API. It is equivalent to B<$omap-E<gt>isincluded($map)>.

=item B<or>

  $map->or( $omap );

ORes $map with $omap, similar to B<|=>.

The long version of this in pure hwloc is:

  $tempmap = hwloc_bitmap_alloc;
  hwloc_bitmap_or($tempmap, $map, $omap);
  hwloc_bitmap_free($map);
  $map = $tempmap;

=item B<and>

  $map->and( $omap );

ANDs $map with $omap, similar to B<&=>.

The long version of this in pure hwloc is:

  $tempmap = hwloc_bitmap_alloc;
  hwloc_bitmap_and($tempmap, $map, $omap);
  hwloc_bitmap_free($map);
  $map = $tempmap;

=item B<andnot>

  $map->andnot( $omap );

ANDs $map with the negation of $omap.

The long version of this in pure hwloc is:

  $tempmap = hwloc_bitmap_alloc;
  hwloc_bitmap_andnot($tempmap, $map, $omap);
  hwloc_bitmap_free($map);
  $map = $tempmap;

=item B<xor>

  $map->xor( $omap );

XORes $map with $omap, similar to B<^=>.

The long version of this in pure hwloc is:

  $tempmap = hwloc_bitmap_alloc;
  hwloc_bitmap_xor($tempmap, $map, $omap);
  hwloc_bitmap_free($map);
  $map = $tempmap;

=item B<not>

  $map->not;

Negates $map.

The long version of this in pure hwloc is:

  $tempmap = hwloc_bitmap_alloc;
  hwloc_bitmap_not($tempmap, $map);
  hwloc_bitmap_free($map);
  $map = $tempmap;
