Interrupts Input Plugin

The interrupts plugin gathers metrics about IRQs from /proc/interrupts and /proc/softirqs.

Configuration

[[inputs.interrupts]]
  ## To filter which IRQs to collect, make use of tagpass / tagdrop, i.e.
  # [inputs.interrupts.tagdrop]
    # irq = [ "NET_RX", "TASKLET" ]

Measurements

There are two measurements reported by this plugin.

  • interrupts gathers metrics from the /proc/interrupts file
  • soft_interrupts gathers metrics from the /proc/softirqs file

Fields

  • CPUx: the amount of interrupts for the IRQ handled by that CPU
  • total: total amount of interrupts for all CPUs

Tags

  • irq: the IRQ
  • type: the type of interrupt
  • device: the name of the device that is located at that IRQ
