I've got 4 LITTLE cores and 4 big cores. In other code I've written for these platforms, I've been able to use all 8 cores, to observe interesting behaviour.
I've looked at [this thread](https://discuss.tvm.apache.org/t/android-big-little-core-control/2100/3), and opinion seems to be mixed, though @eqy seems to think it's possible. [A linked thread](https://discuss.tvm.apache.org/t/number-of-threads-used-during-auto-tunning/570/2?u=merrymercy) suggests that having code such as: ``` if self.big_little: config_func = self.session.get_function('runtime.config_threadpool') # config_func(1, 1) # use 1 big core # config_func(1, 2) # use 2 big cores #config_func(-1, 1) # use 1 small core # config_func(-1, 2) # use 2 small cores config_func(4, 4) ``` Might work, however it has not for me. [This thread](https://discuss.tvm.apache.org/t/setting-per-core-usage-explicitly-in-tvm/4538/3) discusses binding of threads, but playing around with the environment variables has not changed my behaviour. As the APIs have developed since prior threads, is there now a more canonical way of doing this? I'm not worried about clever load balancing for now, I would just like to run with 8 threads. --- [Visit Topic](https://discuss.tvm.apache.org/t/use-all-cores-in-a-big-little-architecture/8474/1) to respond.
