+Compiling DPDK for aarch32/armv7 on aarch64 host
+------------------------------------------
+
+Some aarch64 platforms support EL0 aarch32 mode, so the 32-bit aarch32
+applications and the legacy 32-bit armv7 applications can run in this mode.
+With the GNU C compiler for the armhf architecture toolchain
+gcc-arm-linux-gnueabihf, it can generate aarch32 binary on aarch64 natively.
+
+For Example, in 64-bit Debian, we can use the following command to build 32-bit armv7 DPDK on aarch64 natively:
+
+Install cross compile toolchain for the armhf architecure.
+command::
+
+ dpkg --add-architecture armhf
+ apt-get update
+ apt-get install -y gcc gcc-arm-linux-gnueabihf libc6:armhf make binutils
+
+Build DPDK arm-armv7a-linuxapp-gcc executables.
+command::
+
+ cd <dpdk_folder>
+ make config CROSS=arm-linux-gnueabihf- T=arm-armv7a-linuxapp-gcc
+ make -j CROSS=arm-linux-gnueabihf- T=arm-armv7a-linuxapp-gcc RTE_DEVEL_BUILD=n
