Abstract

A method is implemented by a network device for orchestrating execution of a polling thread of a software-based switching program on a heterogeneous multicore processor. The method includes causing the polling thread to be executed on a first processing core in a first cluster of a plurality of clusters of processing cores, determining a value indicative of a number of active processing cycles used by the polling thread, determining whether the value is higher than a high threshold associated with the first processing core or lower than a low threshold associated with the first processing core, and if so causing the polling thread to be moved to a second processing core in a second cluster of the plurality of clusters, where the second processing core has a different processing capacity than the first processing core.
