idle is around 100 (OK)
idle should be around 95-100

Other Examples and observations:

between with 0 < interval < 2.0 the values of idle increase
values >= 1.5 seem better and better
values >= 2.0 seem OK

intervals

without the Parameter percpu=True, we have NO problem with ANY interval:

Why do you think it's the wrong idle value?

giampaolo on 16 Sep 2019

😕1

Please read my description again.

without the argument percpu=True, there is NO problem with ANY interval
edit: ~~Example: interval=0.25. Without the argument percpu=True, the idle value is 98.0, but with argument percpu=True it goes down to 9.0. That's wrong.~~
Example: interval=1. Without the argument percpu=True, the idle value is 98.5, but with argument percpu=True it goes down to 63.0. That's wrong.

cyril23 on 16 Sep 2019

Ah, you're right, I see the discrepancy now. It seems your namedtuple does not return guest and guest_nice metrics for some reason. Do you have a virtual machine running? (virtualbox, vmware, ...)
Can you paste the output of cat /proc/stat?

giampaolo on 16 Sep 2019

Yes, it is a VM. I don't know what's the hypervisor though. I can ask for it.

OK, as I thought /proc/stat is missing 2 extra columns at the end: guest and guest_nice. Those 2 represent the CPU time spent running "guest" / virtualized systems or containers like openvz.

As per this code section:
https://github.com/giampaolo/psutil/blob/c10df5aa04e1ced58d19501fa42f08c1b909b83d/psutil/_pslinux.py#L281-L286
...they should be available only on Linux > 2.6.24 and Linux > 3.2.0 respectively. What Linux kernel are you on?

As per this comment:
https://github.com/giampaolo/psutil/blob/c10df5aa04e1ced58d19501fa42f08c1b909b83d/psutil/__init__.py#L1756-L1765
...guest and guest_nice are accounted also in user and nice times. But since they are not available and the idle time is off, my best guess is that the kernel does not keep track of them at all, including in user and nice counters, which are lower than they should be (and that's why idle is off, it's missing some "busy time"). In summary, to me it appears like a kernel bug, and you'll probably see the same discrepancy by using top.

giampaolo on 16 Sep 2019

.they should be available only on Linux > 2.6.24 and Linux > 3.2.0 respectively. What Linux kernel are you on?

Kernel:

   2.6.32-042stab140.1

uname -a
   Linux vserver 2.6.32-042stab140.1 #1 SMP Thu Aug 15 13:32:22 MSK 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Using top:
top

Looks like top works, so I don't understand why psutil.cpu_times_percent can't get it right.

cyril23 on 16 Sep 2019

Looks like top works

Can you run a CPU intensive task while you do top? Something like this:

while 1:
    pass

giampaolo on 16 Sep 2019

while 1: pass didn't seem to work. It just showed me a command line, but doesn't show any load on the CPU.

Executing this however gave me a big CPU utilization:
openssl speed -multi $(grep -ci processor /proc/cpuinfo)

last

cyril23 on 16 Sep 2019

OK, while you run that (CPU instensive task) also run this:

import psutil
from pprint import pprint as pp
for x in range(5):
    pp(psutil.cpu_times(percpu=True))
    print()
    pp(psutil.cpu_times_percent(interval=1, percpu=True))
    print("\n-----\n")

What does it print?

giampaolo on 16 Sep 2019

It printed this:
