I have got the odroid xu3 board, then how could I get the scheduling algorithms?

[Oceanisher]

The odroid xu3 board is equiped with Samsung Exynos5 Octa 5422 CPU(ARM Big.LITTLE architecture). This CPU is composed of four A7 cores and four A15 cores. Now I want to learn the scheduling algorithms of those cores, then which part of the linux source code should I read? I am a complete novice. Thanks for your help.

kernel.org has the linux kernel sources.

There are more than one scheduler in the Linux kernel by the way. CPU, I/O, Network...

The CPU kernel for standard Linux is CFS (Completely Fair Scheduler):

I personally prefer BFS

I have got the source code. And I want to know this CPU scheduling algorithms because that this 5422 CPU is with Big Little architecture. Then which part of the source code should I read? Thanks for your help~

But I think CFS is not the right algorithms for 5422 because it is the Big Little architecture CPU since I have read the white paper of it.
