Built on:

• Alpine linux edge via arch emulation
• Windows via Github Actions runners for x86_64

Static binaries are available here: https://github.com/userdocs/iperf3-static/releases/latest

• Alpine - all supported architectures
• Windows - x86_64

Builds are created using https://github.com/multiarch/qemu-user-static and arch specific docker images detailed in the table below.

Static Cygwin builds created via cygwin64 using this action

https://github.com/cygwin/cygwin-install-action

Some awesome people's contributions have helped inspire the creation of a Github action for Windows build and release. It would not have happened withouth the contributions of these users in providing iperf3 builds for Windows. So thank you, to you both.

They are available for x86_64 in two versions.

• basic (without openssl)
• openssl

www.neowin.net via budman

https://github.com/ar51an/iperf3-win-builds via cryptanalyst

I used the budman builds originally before making my own for another project.

apk add build-base pkgconf autoconf automake curl libtool git perl openssl-libs-static openssl-dev linux-headers

apt install -y build-essential pkg-config automake libtool libssl-dev git perl

Without openssl

automake,gcc-core,gcc-g++,git,libtool,make,pkg-config

With openssl

automake,gcc-core,gcc-g++,git,libtool,make,pkg-config,libssl-devel,zlib-devel

Clone the git repo - linux + Cygwin

git clone https://github.com/esnet/iperf.git ~/iperf3 && cd ~/iperf3

Bootstrap - If you cloned the repo

./bootstrap.sh

Configure - linux + Cygwin

Note: Cygwin requires requires compiling openssl and zlib static libs to link statically. Otherwise you compile dynamically

Static

./configure --disable-shared --enable-static-bin --prefix=$HOME

Dynamic

./configure --prefix=$HOME

Cygwin openssl requires compiling openssl and zlib

Build - linux + Cygwin

make -j$(nproc)
make install

ldd ~/bin/iperf3

Use this command to check the version.

~/bin/iperf3 -v

Will show something like this.

iperf 3.10.1 (cJSON 1.7.13)
Optional features available: CPU affinity setting, IPv6 flow label, TCP congestion algorithm setting, sendfile / zerocopy, socket pacing, authentication, bind to device, support IPv4 don't fragment

Download and install to the bin directory of your local user (for root this may not be in the $PATH)

Windows builds required being bundled with Cygwin dlls to work so these are not single static binaries. They have a directory structure like this.

iperf3
    |___bin
    |___include
    |___lib
    |___share

Windows x64 no openssl

https://github.com/userdocs/iperf3-static/releases/latest/download/iperf3-amd64-win.zip

Windows x64 with openssl

https://github.com/userdocs/iperf3-static/releases/latest/download/iperf3-amd64-openssl-win.zip

Check the version:

~/bin/iperf3 -v
