MPI equivalent of KMP_PLACE_THREADS on MIC

Hello All,

When I run pure OpenMP example on MIC, I find KMP_PLACE_THREADS very useful. (for example, I can benchmark using 8 cores and 3 threads on every core with "KMP_PLACE_THREADS=8c,3t,0O"

What is MPI equivalent for this? (I am running pure mpi application natively on MIC with Intel MPI) 

In the documentation I see I_MPI_PIN_PROCESSOR_LIST where I can provide the list of specific processors. Is there any other way?

Thanks.
