As battery-powered embedded devices move towards multicore processors, multicore energy efficiency is be-coming critically important. To this end, ARM recently announced its big.LITTLE architecture, featuring a mul-ticore chip with both high-performance processors and high-efficiency processors running a single instance of the Linux operating system. Prior work has shown the benefits of running performance-critical code on the high-performance processors, while confining other pro-cessing to the high-efficiency processors. This paper builds on this work by showing that for some impor-tant mobile workloads, pre-existing Linux-kernel tun-ing parameters originally designed for real time, high-performance computing, and SMP energy efficiency ca...
