The resctrl task assignment for MONITOR or CONTROL group needs to be
done one at a time. For example:
$mount -t resctrl resctrl /sys/fs/resctrl/
$mkdir /sys/fs/resctrl/clos1
$echo 123 > /sys/fs/resctrl/clos1/tasks
$echo 456 > /sys/fs/resctrl/clos1/tasks
$echo 789 > /sys/fs/resctrl/clos1/tasks
This is not user-friendly when dealing with hundreds of tasks.
Maybe add something like "poor performance due to syscall overhead...".
Ok. Sure
Improve the user experience by supporting the multiple task assignment
in one command with the tasks separated by commas. For example:
$echo 123,456,789 > /sys/fs/resctrl/clos1/tasks

Sure.
To retry movement, user needs to know which pid fails. So it's better
to add "last_command_status shows the failure pid and user can parse
it to retry assignment starting from the failure pid".
Sure.

Better to add pid_str in failure info. Then user knows where the
