Abstract

A system and method are disclosed for managing idle processors in virtualized systems. A hypervisor executing on a host comprising one or more physical processors receives an anticipated idle time for a physical processor of the one or more physical processors of the host from a guest operating system of a virtual machine executing on the host. In response to determining that a function of the anticipated idle time exceeds an exit time of a first power state of the physical processor, the physical processor is caused to be halted and placed in the first power state.
