CPU Attributes

Attributes specific to a CPU instance.

Attributes:

Key	Stability	Value Type	Description	Example Values
cpu.logical_number		int	The identifier of a logical execution target (CPU) as seen by the operating system, in the range [0..n-1]. [1]	1
cpu.mode		string	The mode of the CPU	user; system (see more)

[1] cpu.logical_number: On systems with simultaneous multithreading (SMT) enabled — such as Intel Hyper-Threading or AMD SMT — this value will usually differ from the physical core number, because each core presents multiple logical CPUs for the system to use.

cpu.mode has the following list of well-known values. If one of them applies, then the respective value MUST be used; otherwise, a custom value MAY be used.

Value	Description	Stability
idle	Idle
interrupt	Interrupt
iowait	IO Wait
nice	Nice
steal	Steal
system	System
user	User
