Taken from Ruby source code [1]:

"man page says CPU_ALLOC takes number of cpus. But it is not accurate
explanation. sched_getaffinity() returns EINVAL if cpuset bitmap is smaller
than kernel internal bitmap. That said, sched_getaffinity() can fail when a
kernel have sparse bitmap even if cpuset bitmap is larger than number of cpus."
