* Parse the CPU list and set the mask accordingly.
*
* The list element can be either a CPU index or a range of CPU indices.
- * Example: "1,3,5-7".
- *
- * note1: stride (e.g. 0-255:2) is not supported
- * note2: leading and trailing whitespace is not allowed
+ * Example: "1,3,5-7". Stride can be specified: "0-7:2" is "0,2,4,6".
+ * Note: leading and trailing whitespace is not allowed.
* util-linux 2.31 allows leading and sometimes trailing whitespace:
* ok: taskset -c ' 1, 2'
* ok: taskset -c ' 1 , 2'
