For example, 65 Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial) or 18.04 (Bionic) userland which can be obtained 66 from `here 67 <http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-base/releases/18.04/release/ubuntu-base-18.04.1-base-arm64.tar.gz>`_. 68 694. **Resource Scripts** 70 71 DPAA2 based resources can be configured easily with the help of ready scripts 72 as provided in the DPDK Extra repository. 73 74As an alternative method, DPAA2 PMD can also be executed using images provided 75as part of SDK from NXP. The SDK includes all the above prerequisites necessary 76to bring up a DPAA2 board. 77 78The following dependencies are not part of DPDK and must be installed 79separately: 80 81- **NXP Linux SDK** 82 83 NXP Linux software development kit (SDK) includes support for family 84 of QorIQ® ARM-Architecture-based system on chip (SoC) processors 85 and corresponding boards. 86 87 It includes the Linux board support packages (BSPs) for NXP SoCs, 88 a fully operational tool chain, kernel and board specific modules. 89 90 SDK and related information can be obtained from: `NXP QorIQ SDK <http://www.nxp.com/products/software-and-tools/run-time-software/linux-sdk/linux-sdk-for-qoriq-processors:SDKLINUX>`_. 91 92 93.. _extra_scripts: 94 95- **DPDK Extra Scripts** 96 97 DPAA2 based resources can be configured easily with the help of ready scripts 98 as provided in the DPDK Extra repository. 99 100 `DPDK Extras Scripts <https://source.codeaurora.org/external/qoriq/qoriq-components/dpdk-extras>`_. 101 102Currently supported by DPDK: 103 104- NXP SDK **2.0+** (preferred: LSDK 18.09). 105- MC Firmware version **10.10.0** and higher. 106- Supported architectures: **arm64 LE**. 107 108- Follow the DPDK :ref:`Getting Started Guide for Linux <linux_gsg>` 109 to setup the basic DPDK environment. 110
