Publication number: 20240004680Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for CPU core off-parking. In one example implementation, a performance test is executed for a CPU core that is part of a first mapping of virtual processors to logical CPU cores. A set of performance indicators is received for the CPU core. Based on the set of performance indicators, a determination is made regarding whether to off-park the CPU core. If it is determined that the CPU core is to be off-parked, a second mapping of virtual processors to logical CPU cores is created, where the CPU core to be off-parked is not part of the second mapping. The second mapping is then implemented.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2022Publication date: January 4, 2024Applicant: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Peter JIANG, Drew CROSS, Taylor Marie POTHAST, Bruce J.
