1. A system for tracking and recording disk Input/Output (IO) and attributing the disk Input/Output (IO) to one or more system entities, the system comprising one or more computer processors and computer memory, the system configured to: generate a disk IO attribution context, the disk IO attribution context being a data structure that defines one or more disk IO utilization parameters for a system entity and into which disk IO utilization data corresponding to the one or more disk IO utilization parameters can be recorded; attach a pointer to the system entity that points to the disk IO attribution context; expose the pointer to one or more system components of an underlying computer system, the pointer prompting the one or more system components to report the one or more disk IO utilization parameters when the one or more system components have performed a disk IO operation for the system entity; receive one or more reports from the one or more system components, the reports including disk IO utilization data corresponding to the one or more disk IO utilization parameters associated with the one or more system components; and record in the IO attribution context the one or more disk IO utilization parameters reported by the one or more system components.
