Compiling the Application
=========================
The ``testpmd`` application is compiled as part of the main compilation of the DPDK libraries and tools.
Refer to the DPDK Getting Started Guides for details.
The basic compilation steps are:
#. Set the required environmental variables and go to the source directory:
.. code-block:: console
export RTE_SDK=/path/to/rte_sdk
cd $RTE_SDK
#. Set the compilation target. For example:
.. code-block:: console
export RTE_TARGET=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
#. Build the application:
.. code-block:: console
make install T=$RTE_TARGET
The compiled application will be located at:
.. code-block:: console
$RTE_SDK/$RTE_TARGET/app/testpmd
