To be more precise on this question, I am working on Hikey 970 with 4 little cores (core id: 0123) and 4 big cores (core id:4567). I am working on splitting the entire relay graph into graphs and running it in pipeline format.
I know that with the following command, I can control the CPU number of threads **locally.** > export TVM_BIND_THREADS=1 (enable CPU affinity) > export TVM_NUM_THREADS= N (N=1~4 control Number of CPU you wanna use) However, I have two questions on this problem: 1. This command only allows me to use 1/2/3/4 big cores only and it seems that the default setting doesn't allow users to use the small cores. Even if I set TVM_NUM_THREADS larger than 4, it still uses 4 big cores only. Is it possible to use small cores, or big and small cores (e.g. 3 big 4 small)? 2. Moreover, this command would set all of the benchmarks using assign cores. Since I split the original graph into subgraphs, what I would like to have is actually **assigning specific subgraphs to use specific cores** (something like subgraph 0 -> 2 big cores, subgraph 1 -> 2 big cores, subgraph 2 -> 4 small cores) instead of changing the entire setting globally. @hjiang may I ask is it possible to share some of your implementations even though it's still under development? --- [Visit Topic](https://discuss.tvm.apache.org/t/setting-the-cpu-affinity-and-number-of-cores-locally-without-rpc-remote/11306/2) to respond.
