For tested dual socket 44 core broadwell:

node 0 node 1
cpu mask 0-21,44-65 22-43,66-87

For affinity=node map->affinity_mask is either [0-21,44-65] or [22-43,66-87].
For affinity=cpu map->affinity_mask is [0] or [1] or [2] and so on.

Without affinity option set map->affinity_mask and record->affinity_mask are [].

Thanks,
Alexey
