+Building and Installing DPDK from Sources
+=========================================
+
+This chapter provides a comprehensive guide for building DPDK from sources.
+It covers the necessary steps, prerequisites, and considerations for different architectures and compilers.
+
+Required Tools
+--------------
+
+To build DPDK, you'll need the following tools:
+
+- A C compiler like ``gcc`` (version 5+) or ``clang`` (version 3.6+)
+- ``pkg-config`` or ``pkgconf``
+- Python 3.6 or later
+- ``meson`` (version 0.57.0) and ``ninja``
+- ``pyelftools`` (version 0.22+)
+
+Platform-Specific Tool Installation
+-----------------------------------
+
+Linux
+^^^^^
+
+Alpine
+""""""
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+   sudo apk add alpine-sdk bsd-compat-headers gcc pkg-config python3 meson ninja pyelftools numactl-dev
+
+Debian, Ubuntu, and derivatives
+"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+   sudo apt install build-essential gcc pkg-config python3 meson ninja pyelftools libnuma-dev
+
+Fedora and RedHat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
+"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+   sudo dnf groupinstall "Development Tools"
+   sudo dnf install gcc pkg-config python3 meson ninja python3-pyelftools numactl-devel
+
+openSUSE
+""""""""
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+   sudo zypper install -t pattern devel_basis
+   sudo zypper install gcc pkg-config python3 meson ninja python3-pyelftools libnuma-devel
+
+FreeBSD
+^^^^^^^
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+   pkg install pkgconf python3 meson ninja pyelftools
+
+.. note::
+
+   If you're using FreeBSD, make sure kernel sources are included during the FreeBSD installation.
+
+Windows System Requirements
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Building the DPDK and its applications on Windows requires one of the following
+environments:
+
+- The Clang-LLVM C compiler and Microsoft MSVC linker.
+- The MinGW-w64 toolchain (either native or cross).
+
+The Meson Build system is used to prepare the sources for compilation with the Ninja backend.
+
+.. _clang_llvm:
+
+Option 1: Clang-LLVM C Compiler and Microsoft MSVC Linker
+"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+1. Install the Compiler: Download and install the Clang compiler from the 
+   `LLVM website <http://releases.llvm.org/>`_.
+
+2. Install the Linker: Download and install the Build Tools for Visual Studio from the
+   `Microsoft website <https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/>`_.
+   When installing build tools, select the “Visual C++ build tools” option and make sure
+   the Windows SDK is selected.
+
+.. _mingw_w64_toolchain:
+
+Option 2: MinGW-w64 Toolchain
+""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+1. On Linux (for cross-compilation): Install MinGW-w64 via a package manager. 
+   Version 4.0.4 for Ubuntu 16.04 cannot be used due to a MinGW-w64 bug.
+
+2. On Windows: Obtain the latest version installer from the
+   `MinGW-w64 repository <https://mingw-w64.org/doku.php>`_. 
+   Any thread model (POSIX or Win32) can be chosen, DPDK does not rely on it. 
+   Install to a folder without spaces in its name, like ``C:\MinGW``. 
+   This path is assumed for the rest of this guide.
+
+Install the Build System
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Download and install the build system from the
+`Meson website <http://mesonbuild.com/Getting-meson.html#installing-meson-and-ninja-with-the-msi-installer>`_.
+A good option to choose is the MSI installer for both meson and ninja together.
+Required version is Meson 0.57.x (baseline).
+
+Getting the DPDK Source
+-----------------------
+
+Linux and FreeBSD
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+   wget https://fast.dpdk.org/rel/dpdk-20.11.tar.xz
+   tar -xJf dpdk-20.11.tar.xz
+   cd dpdk-20.11
+
+Windows
+^^^^^^^
+
+Download the DPDK source code from `DPDK's official website <https://www.dpdk.org/>`_ or clone the repository using a Git client. Extract the downloaded archive, if applicable, and navigate to the DPDK directory.
+
+Navigate to the directory where the DPDK source code is located:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+   cd C:\path\to\dpdk-20.11
+
+Building DPDK
+-------------
+
+.. note::
+
+   In all examples below, "build" is used as the name of the build directory. It is not part of the command itself.
+
+Linux and FreeBSD
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+   meson setup build
+   meson compile -C build
+
+Windows
+^^^^^^^
+
+**Option 1: Using Clang-LLVM**
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+   set CC=clang
+   meson setup -Dexamples=helloworld build
+   meson compile -C build
+
+**Option 2: Using MinGW-w64**
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+   set PATH=C:\MinGW\mingw64\bin;%PATH%
+   meson setup -Dexamples=helloworld build
+   meson compile -C build
+
+.. note::
+
+   For detailed information on Meson build configuration options specific to DPDK, see :ref:`DPDK Meson Build Configuration Options <dpdk_meson_build_options>`.
+
+Cross-Compilation Instructions for Different Architectures
+----------------------------------------------------------
+
+For instructions on building DPDK for ARM64, LoongArch, and RISC-V, refer to :ref:`cross_compile_dpdk`.
