Processor Affinity

In order to work with processor affinity, it is helpful to understand RTX dedicated mode and processor affinity concepts. See RTX Configuration Modes and Processor Affinity for details.

NOTE: Although the processor-affinity-related calls that are described in this section can be used in both uniprocessor and multiprocessor environments, they are useful only with multiprocessor environments.
