The Dockerfile supports building and cross compiling docker daemon and extra tools using Docker Buildx and BuildKit. A bake definition named docker-bake.hcl is in place to ease the build process:

# build binaries for the current host platform
# output to ./bundles/binary-daemon by default
docker buildx bake
# or
docker buildx bake binary

# build binaries for the current host platform
# output to ./bin
DESTDIR=./bin docker buildx bake

# build dynamically linked binaries
# output to ./bundles/dynbinary-daemon by default
DOCKER_STATIC=0 docker buildx bake
# or
docker buildx bake dynbinary

# build binaries for all supported platforms
docker buildx bake binary-cross

# build binaries for a specific platform
docker buildx bake --set *.platform=linux/arm64

# build "complete" binaries (including containerd, runc, vpnkit, etc.)
docker buildx bake all

# build "complete" binaries for all supported platforms
docker buildx bake all-cross

# build non-runnable image wrapping "complete" binaries
# useful for use with undock and sharing via a registry
docker buildx bake bin-image

# build non-runnable image wrapping "complete" binaries, with custom tag
docker buildx bake bin-image --set "*.tags=foo/moby-bin:latest"

# build non-runnable image wrapping "complete" binaries for all supported platforms
# multi-platform images must be directly pushed to a registry
docker buildx bake bin-image-cross --set "*.tags=foo/moby-bin:latest" --push
