MULTI-CORE PROCESSOR SCHEDULING METHOD AND APPARATUS, AND TERMINAL

摘要

The present invention relates to the technical field of communications. Provided are a multi-core processor scheduling method and apparatus, and a terminal, so as to solve the defect in a related art that considerations cannot be given to performance and power consumption of a multi-core processor at the same time. The method comprises: determining a target frequency of a current core of a processor, the target frequency being an operating frequency adjusted under a request of the current core of the processor; if the target frequency of the current core is higher than current operating frequencies of started cores of the processor, determining whether the number of migratable processes in the started cores of the processor meets a preset condition; and starting a new core for the processor in a case in which the number of migratable processes in the started cores of the processor meets the preset condition. The present invention can be used in all kinds of multi-core processors.
