corresponds to `cpulimit` and `CPUShares` corresponds to our `cpuunits`
setting, visit its Notes section for references and implementation details.
+The third CPU resource limiting setting, *affinity*, controls what host cores
+the virtual machine will be permitted to execute on. E.g., if an affinity value
+of `0-3,8-11` is provided, the virtual machine will be restricted to using the
+host cores `0,1,2,3,8,9,10,` and `11`. Valid *affinity* values are written in
+cpuset `List Format`. List Format is a comma-separated list of CPU numbers and
+ranges of numbers, in ASCII decimal.
+
+NOTE: CPU *affinity* uses the `taskset` command to restrict virtual machines to
+a given set of cores. This restriction will not take effect for some types of
+processes that may be created for IO. *CPU affinity is not a security feature.*
+
+For more information regarding *affinity* see `man cpuset`. Here the
+`List Format` corresponds to valid *affinity* values. Visit its `Formats`
+section for more examples.

NOTE: If the computer has 2 CPUs, it has total of '2' CPU time. Value '0' indicates no CPU limit.
+`affinity`: `<string>`::
+
+Set of CPU cores to pin the virtual machine processes to. This is a comma sepparated list of numbers or ranges in list format as defined by the Linux man page for cpuset. ( e.g `0,4-6,9` )

`cpuunits`: `<integer> (1 - 262144)` ('default =' `cgroup v1: 1024, cgroup v2: 100`)::
CPU weight for a VM. Argument is used in the kernel fair scheduler. The larger the number is, the more CPU time this VM gets. Number is relative to weights of all the other running VMs.
