enumhwloc_distrib_flags_e
       Flags to be given to hwloc_distrib().

       EnumeratorHWLOC_DISTRIB_FLAG_REVERSE
              Distrib in reverse order, starting from the last objects.

inthwloc_distrib(hwloc_topology_ttopology,hwloc_obj_t*roots,unsignedn_roots,hwloc_cpuset_t*set,unsignedn,intuntil,unsignedlongflags)[inline]
       Distribute n items over the topology under roots. Array set will be filled  with  n  cpusets  recursively
       distributed  linearly over the topology under objects roots, down to depth until (which can be INT_MAX to
       distribute down to the finest level).

       n_roots is usually 1 and roots only contains the topology root object so as to distribute over the entire
       topology.

       This is typically useful when an application wants to distribute n threads over a machine, giving each of
       them as much private cache as possible and keeping them locally in number order.

       The caller may typically want to also call hwloc_bitmap_singlify() before binding a  thread  so  that  it
       does not move at all.

       flags should be 0 or a OR'ed set of hwloc_distrib_flags_e.

       Returns
           0 on success, -1 on error.

       Note
           On hybrid CPUs (or asymmetric platforms), distribution may be suboptimal since the number of cores or
           PUs  inside  packages  or  below  caches  may vary (the top-down recursive partitioning ignores these
           numbers until reaching their levels). Hence it is recommended to  distribute  only  inside  a  single
           homogeneous domain. For instance on a CPU with energy-efficient E-cores and high-performance P-cores,
           one  should  distribute  separately  N  tasks  on E-cores and M tasks on P-cores instead of trying to
           distribute directly M+N tasks on the entire CPUs.

           This function requires the roots objects to have a CPU set.
