Interrupts Input Plugin

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

Configuration

[[inputs.interrupts]]
  ## When set to true, cpu metrics are tagged with the cpu.  Otherwise cpu is
  ## stored as a field.
  ##
  ## The default is false for backwards compatibility, and will be changed to
  ## true in a future version.  It is recommended to set to true on new
  ## deployments.
  # cpu_as_tag = false

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

Metrics

There are two styles depending on the value of cpu_as_tag.

With cpu_as_tag = false:

  • interrupts

    • tags:
      • irq (IRQ name)
      • type
      • device (name of the device that is located at the IRQ)
      • cpu
    • fields:
      • cpu (int, number of interrupts per cpu)
      • total (int, total number of interrupts)

  • soft_interrupts

    • tags:
      • irq (IRQ name)
      • type
      • device (name of the device that is located at the IRQ)
      • cpu
    • fields:
      • cpu (int, number of interrupts per cpu)
      • total (int, total number of interrupts)

With cpu_as_tag = true:

  • interrupts

    • tags:
      • irq (IRQ name)
      • type
      • device (name of the device that is located at the IRQ)
      • cpu
    • fields:
      • count (int, number of interrupts)

  • soft_interrupts

    • tags:
      • irq (IRQ name)
      • type
      • device (name of the device that is located at the IRQ)
      • cpu
    • fields:
      • count (int, number of interrupts)

Example Output

With cpu_as_tag = false:

interrupts,irq=0,type=IO-APIC,device=2-edge\ timer,cpu=cpu0 count=23i 1489346531000000000
interrupts,irq=1,type=IO-APIC,device=1-edge\ i8042,cpu=cpu0 count=9i 1489346531000000000
interrupts,irq=30,type=PCI-MSI,device=65537-edge\ virtio1-input.0,cpu=cpu1 count=1i 1489346531000000000
soft_interrupts,irq=NET_RX,cpu=cpu0 count=280879i 1489346531000000000

With cpu_as_tag = true:
