There are also instructions for building on any host that supports [Docker](doc/building-docker.md).

### Building with a DPDK network backend

1. Setup host to compile DPDK:
- Ubuntu
`sudo apt-get install -y build-essential linux-image-extra-$(uname -r$)`
2. Run a configure.py: `./configure.py --enable-dpdk`.
3. Run `ninja-build`.

To run with the DPDK backend for a native stack give the seastar application `--dpdk-pmd 1` parameter.

You can also configure DPDK as an [external package](README-DPDK.md).
Use of the [DPDK](http://dpdk.org) is [optional](doc/building-dpdk.md).
