Installing NDCTL

The ndctl utility is used to manage the libnvdimm (non-volatile memory device) sub-system in the Linux Kernel. It is required for several Persistent Memory Developer Kit (PMDK) features if compiling from source. If ndctl is not available, the PMDK may not build all components and features.

Refer to the installation instructions in the NDCTL User Guide for installing prebuilt packages or building ndctl from source.
