Description John Kacur 2022-08-25 18:32:13 UTC 
This bug was initially created as a copy of Bug #2121534

I am copying this bug because: 

This should be done in rhel-8.8 too


Description of problem:
Allow user to enter compressed cpu-lists (short form),
that is 0-4 instead of 0,1,2,3,4

For example
rteval  --loads-cpulist=2-4 --measurement-cpulist=0,9-11'

Also fix reporting 

    so if cpu3 has been turned off, then we should see the following
    
    started 3 loads on cores 2,4
    started measurement threads on cores 0,9-11
    
    and not
    started 3 loads on cores 2-4
