[Starlingx-discuss] CPU Isolation discrepancy

Hi

I am running StarlingX 4.0 in Low Latency Mode in AIO-SX. We have isolated CPUs for application as below using the supported way. However, we can see that kubelet treads are scheduled on application isolated vcpus - Ex: 49, 50, 75.



Could someone explain the behavior here?. Full log is attached.
