Why "... if HiP04 SoC is built without CONFIG_BIG_LITTLE" ? That statement makes no sense. As mentioned before, if you have a multi-platform kernel config with CONFIG_BIG_LITTLE included, there is no reason for not supporting quad cluster platforms at the same time. FYI you might want to have a look at patch #8032 in RMK's patch system that removes a build-time MCPM dependency from the b.L switcher. > Signed-off-by: Haojian Zhuang <haojian.zhuang@linaro.org> More comments below. > --- > arch/arm/Kconfig | 8 ++++++++ > arch/arm/include/asm/mcpm.h | 5 +++++ > 2 files changed, 13 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/arch/arm/Kconfig b/arch/arm/Kconfig > index 9a2214e..f2a25be 100644 > --- a/arch/arm/Kconfig > +++ b/arch/arm/Kconfig > @@ -1571,6 +1571,14 @@ config MCPM > for (multi-)cluster based systems, such as big.LITTLE based > systems. > > +config MCPM_QUAD_CLUSTER > + bool "Enable Quad clusters in MPCM" s/MPCM/MCPM/ Yet you should not provide any prompt text here.

Since 16 Cortex-A15 cores are used in HiP04 SoC, enlarge the maximum clusters from 2 to 4 if HiP04 SoC is built without CONFIG_BIG_LITTLE.
