Abstract

Systems and methods for determining and reporting actual utilization of a core of a central processing unit (CPU) of a host. Prior to implementation of aspects of the present disclosure, running a poll querying endpoints of a process for work appears to the host's operating system as busy work (e.g., taking full use of the core for the poll duration). However, only a percentage of the duration of the poll is used to process a task of the process, where the remaining duration of the poll is spent querying the endpoints (idle time) and the core is not performing a task. Accordingly, a core utilization reporting system and method automatically detects the processing time of the tasks of a process, determines actual CPU utilization of the core based on a percentage of the time the core is busy polling (doing effectively no work) versus doing actual work (processing a task).
