CPU utilization (proto)

This extension has the qualified name envoy.resource_monitors.cpu_utilization

Note

This extension is functional but has not had substantial production burn time, use only with this caveat.

This extension does not operate on the data plane and hence is intended to be robust against untrusted traffic.

Tip

This extension extends and can be used with the following extension category:

• envoy.resource_monitors

This extension must be configured with one of the following type URLs:

• type.googleapis.com/envoy.extensions.resource_monitors.cpu_utilization.v3.CpuUtilizationConfig

extensions.resource_monitors.cpu_utilization.v3.CpuUtilizationConfig

[extensions.resource_monitors.cpu_utilization.v3.CpuUtilizationConfig proto]

The CPU utilization resource monitor reports the Envoy process the CPU Utilization of the entire host. Today, this only works on Linux and is calculated using the stats in the /proc/stat file.
