A query operation is performed to obtain information for a select entity of a computing environment. The information includes boost information of one or more boost features currently available for the select entity. The one or more boost features are to be used to temporarily adjust one or more processing attributes of the select entity. The boost information obtained from performing the query operation is provided in an accessible location to be used to perform one or more actions to facilitate processing in the computing environment.

Query and update of processor boost information

A method, computer program product, and system include a processor(s) issues an instruction that includes processing core information that includes locations of processing cores of the computing system (logical cores and/or physical cores), and an operator selection. The processor(s) sets security parameters for information returned by the instruction which is topological information for mapping of the logical cores to the physical cores. The processor(s) obtains the topological information and utilizes an operating system to map the logical cores to the physical cores.
