Buildx is supposed to be flexible and can be run in different configurations
that are exposed through a driver concept. Currently, we support a
[`docker` driver](docs/reference/buildx_create.md#docker-driver) that uses
the BuildKit library bundled into the Docker daemon binary, a
[`docker-container` driver](docs/reference/buildx_create.md#docker-container-driver)
that automatically launches BuildKit inside a Docker container and a
[`kubernetes` driver](docs/reference/buildx_create.md#kubernetes-driver) to
spin up pods with defined BuildKit container image to build your images. We
plan to add more drivers in the future.

connect to manually provisioned and managed buildkitd instances.
We plan to add more drivers in the future.
The user experience of using buildx is very similar across drivers, but there
are some features that are not currently supported by the `docker` driver,

#### `remote` driver
Uses a remote instance of buildkitd over an arbitrary connection. With this
driver, you manually create and manage instances of buildkit yourself, and
configure buildx to point at it.
Unlike `docker` driver, built images will not automatically appear in
`docker images` and [`build --load`](buildx_build.md#load) needs to be used

```
--driver-opt OPTIONS
```
Passes additional driver-specific options. Details for each driver:
Passes additional driver-specific options.
- `docker` - No driver options
- `docker-container`
- `image=IMAGE` - Sets the container image to be used for running buildkit.
- `network=NETMODE` - Sets the network mode for running the buildkit container.
- `cgroup-parent=CGROUP` - Sets the cgroup parent of the buildkit container if docker is using the "cgroupfs" driver. Defaults to `/docker/buildx`.
- `kubernetes`
- `image=IMAGE` - Sets the container image to be used for running buildkit.
- `namespace=NS` - Sets the Kubernetes namespace. Defaults to the current namespace.
- `replicas=N` - Sets the number of `Pod` replicas. Defaults to 1.
- `requests.cpu` - Sets the request CPU value specified in units of Kubernetes CPU. Example `requests.cpu=100m`, `requests.cpu=2`
- `requests.memory` - Sets the request memory value specified in bytes or with a valid suffix. Example `requests.memory=500Mi`, `requests.memory=4G`
- `limits.cpu` - Sets the limit CPU value specified in units of Kubernetes CPU. Example `limits.cpu=100m`, `limits.cpu=2`
- `limits.memory` - Sets the limit memory value specified in bytes or with a valid suffix. Example `limits.memory=500Mi`, `limits.memory=4G`
- `"nodeselector=label1=value1,label2=value2"` - Sets the kv of `Pod` nodeSelector. No Defaults. Example `nodeselector=kubernetes.io/arch=arm64`
- `"tolerations=key=foo,value=bar;key=foo2,operator=exists;key=foo3,effect=NoSchedule"` - Sets the `Pod` tolerations. Accepts the same values as the kube manifest tolerations. Key-value pairs are separated by `,`, tolerations are separated by `;`. No Defaults. Example `tolerations=operator=exists`
- `rootless=(true|false)` - Run the container as a non-root user without `securityContext.privileged`. Needs Kubernetes 1.19 or later. [Using Ubuntu host kernel is recommended](https://github.com/moby/buildkit/blob/master/docs/rootless.md). Defaults to false.
- `loadbalance=(sticky|random)` - Load-balancing strategy. If set to "sticky", the pod is chosen using the hash of the context path. Defaults to "sticky"
- `qemu.install=(true|false)` - Install QEMU emulation for multi platforms support.
- `qemu.image=IMAGE` - Sets the QEMU emulation image. Defaults to `tonistiigi/binfmt:latest`
Note: When using quoted values for example for the `nodeselector` or
`tolerations` options, ensure that quotes are escaped correctly for your shell.
