The reservedSystemCPUs parameter in KubeletConfiguration, or the deprecated kubelet command line option --reserved-cpus, defines an explicit CPU set for OS system daemons and kubernetes system daemons. More details of this parameter can be found on the Explicitly Reserved CPU List page. By default, this isolation is implemented only for guaranteed pods with integer CPU requests not for burstable and best-effort pods (and guaranteed pods with fractional CPU requests). Admission is only comparing the CPU requests against the allocatable CPUs. Since the CPU limit is higher than the request, the default behaviour allows burstable and best-effort pods to use up the capacity of reservedSystemCPUs and cause host OS services to starve in real life deployments. If the strict-cpu-reservation policy option is enabled, the static policy will not allow any workload to use the CPU cores specified in r
