Why I did it
To support BGP pending FIB suppression.
How I did it
I backported patches from FRR 8.4 feature that allows communicating ASIC route status back to FRR.
Also, added a new field in DEVICE_METADATA YANG model table. Added UT for YANG model changes.
How to verify it
Run on the switch.
Why I did it
dplane_fpm_nl is a new FPM implementation in FRR. The old plugin fpm will not have any new features implemented. Usage of the new plugin gives us ability to use BGP suppression feature and next hop groups in the future.
How I did it
Switch to dplane_fpm_nl zebra plugin from old fpm plugin which is not supported anymore
Remove stale patches for old fpm plugin and add similar patches for dplane_fpm_nl
How to verify it
Build and run on the switch.

- Why I did it
The values for config_db "docker_routing_config_mode" are:
separated: FRR config generated from ConfigDB, each FRR daemon has its own config file
unified: FRR config generated from ConfigDB, single FRR config file
split: FRR config not generated from ConfigDB, each FRR daemon has its own config file
This commit adds:
split-unified: FRR config not generated from ConfigDB, single FRR config file
- How I did it
In docker_init.sh, when split-unified is used, the FRR configs are not generated
from ConfigDB. What's more, "service integrated-vtysh-config" is configured in vtysh.conf.
- How to verify it
FRR config not overwritten when FRR container starts.

The requirement for zebra to be ready to accept connections is a generic problem that is not
specific to bgpd. Making the script to wait for zebra socket a separate script and let bgpd and
staticd to wait for zebra socket.
- Support for non-template based FRR configurations (BGP, route-map, OSPF, static route..etc) using config DB schema.
- Support for save & restore - Jinja template based config-DB data read and apply to FRR during startup
**- How I did it**
- add frrcfgd service
- when frr_mgmg_framework_config is set, frrcfgd starts in bgp container
- when user changed the BGP or other related table entries in config DB, frrcfgd will run corresponding VTYSH commands to program on FRR.
- add jinja template to generate FRR config file to be used by FRR daemons while bgp container restarted
**- How to verify it**
1. Add/delete data on config DB and then run VTYSH "show running-config" command to check if FRR configuration changed.
1. Restart bgp container and check if generated FRR config file is correct and run VTYSH "show running-config" command to check if FRR configuration is consistent with attributes in config DB

- Why I did it
Initially, we used Monit to monitor critical processes in each container. If one of critical processes was not running
or crashed due to some reasons, then Monit will write an alerting message into syslog periodically. If we add a new process
in a container, the corresponding Monti configuration file will also need to update. It is a little hard for maintenance.
Currently we employed event listener of Supervisod to do this monitoring. Since processes in each container are managed by
Supervisord, we can only focus on the logic of monitoring.
- How I did it
We borrowed the event listener of Supervisord to monitor critical processes in containers. The event listener will take
following steps if it was notified one of critical processes exited unexpectedly:
The event listener will first check whether the auto-restart mechanism was enabled for this container or not. If auto-restart mechanism was enabled, event listener will kill the Supervisord process, which should cause the container to exit and subsequently get restarted.
If auto-restart mechanism was not enabled for this contianer, the event listener will enter a loop which will first sleep 1 minute and then check whether the process is running. If yes, the event listener exits. If no, an alerting message will be written into syslog.
- How to verify it
First, we need checked whether the auto-restart mechanism of a container was enabled or not by running the command show feature status. If enabled, one critical process should be selected and killed manually, then we need check whether the container will be restarted or not.
Second, we can disable the auto-restart mechanism if it was enabled at step 1 by running the commnad sudo config feature autorestart <container_name> disabled. Then one critical process should be selected and killed. After that, we will see the alerting message which will appear in the syslog every 1 minute.

Fix#5026
There is a race condition between zebra server accepts connections and bgpd tries to connect. Bgpd has a chance to try to connect before zebra is ready. In this scenario, bgpd will try again after 10 seconds and operate as normal within these 10 seconds. As a consequence, whatever bgpd tries to sent to zebra will be missing in the 10 seconds. To avoid such a scenario, bgpd should start after zebra is ready to accept connections.
**- Why I did it**
We were building a custom version of Supervisor because I had added patches to prevent hangs and crashes if the system clock ever rolled backward. Those changes were merged into the upstream Supervisor repo as of version 3.4.0 (http://supervisord.org/changes.html#id9), therefore, we should be able to simply install the vanilla package via pip. This will also allow us to easily move to Python 3, as Python 3 support was added in version 4.0.0.
**- How I did it**
- Remove Makefiles and patches for building supervisor package from source
- Install Python 3 supervisor package version 4.2.1 in Buster base container
- Also install Python 3 version of supervisord-dependent-startup in Buster base container
- Debian package installed binary in `/usr/bin/`, but pip package installs in `/usr/local/bin/`, so rather than update all absolute paths, I changed all references to simply call `supervisord` and let the system PATH find the executable to prevent future need for changes just in case we ever need to switch back to build a Debian package, then we won't need to modify these again.
- Install Python 2 supervisor package >= 3.4.0 in Stretch and Jessie base containers
* Add bgpmon under sonic-bgpcfgd to be started as a new daemon under BGP docker
* Added bgpmon to be monitored by Monit so that if it crashed, it gets alerted
* use console_scripts entry point to package bgpmon
When stopping the swss, pmon or bgp containers, log messages like the following can be seen:
```
Aug 23 22:50:43.789760 sonic-dut INFO swss#supervisord 2020-08-23 22:50:10,061 ERRO pool dependent-startup event buffer overflowed, discarding event 34
Aug 23 22:50:43.789760 sonic-dut INFO swss#supervisord 2020-08-23 22:50:10,063 ERRO pool dependent-startup event buffer overflowed, discarding event 35
Aug 23 22:50:43.789760 sonic-dut INFO swss#supervisord 2020-08-23 22:50:10,064 ERRO pool dependent-startup event buffer overflowed, discarding event 36
Aug 23 22:50:43.789760 sonic-dut INFO swss#supervisord 2020-08-23 22:50:10,066 ERRO pool dependent-startup event buffer overflowed, discarding event 37
```
This is due to the number of programs in the container managed by supervisor, all generating events at the same time. The default event queue buffer size in supervisor is 10. This patch increases that value in all containers in order to eliminate these errors. As more programs are added to the containers, we may need to further adjust these values. I increased all buffer sizes to 25 except for containers with more programs or templated supervisor.conf files which allow for a variable number of programs. In these cases I increased the buffer size to 50. One final exception is the swss container, where the buffer fills up to ~50, so I increased this buffer to 100.

Explanation:
In the log from the issue I found:
```
I see following in the log
Jul 22 21:13:06.574831 vlab-01 WARNING bgp#bgpd[49]: [EC 33554499] sendmsg_nexthop: zclient_send_message() failed
```
Analyzing source code I found that the error message could be issues only when `zclient_send_rnh()` return less than 0.
```
ret = zclient_send_rnh(zclient, command, p, exact_match,
bnc->bgp->vrf_id);
/* TBD: handle the failure */
if (ret < 0)
flog_warn(EC_BGP_ZEBRA_SEND,
"sendmsg_nexthop: zclient_send_message() failed");
```
I checked [zclient_send_rnh()](88351c8f6d/lib/zclient.c (L654)) and found that this function will return the exit code which the function gets from [zclient_send_message()](88351c8f6d/lib/zclient.c (L266)) But the latter function could return not 0 in two cases:
1. bgpd didn’t connect to the zclient socket yet [code](88351c8f6d/lib/zclient.c (L269))
2. The socket was closed. But in this case we would receive the error message in the log. (And I can find the message in the log when we reboot sonic) [code](88351c8f6d/lib/zclient.c (L277))
Also I see from the logs that client connection was set later we had the issue in bgpd.
Bgpd.log
```
Jul 22 21:13:06.574831 vlab-01 WARNING bgp#bgpd[49]: [EC 33554499] sendmsg_nexthop: zclient_send_message() failed
```
Vs
Zebra.log
```
Jul 22 21:13:12.713249 vlab-01 NOTICE bgp#zebra[48]: client 25 says hello and bids fair to announce only static routes vrf=0
Jul 22 21:13:12.820352 vlab-01 NOTICE bgp#zebra[48]: client 30 says hello and bids fair to announce only bgp routes vrf=0
Jul 22 21:13:12.820352 vlab-01 NOTICE bgp#zebra[48]: client 33 says hello and bids fair to announce only vnc routes vrf=0
```
So in our case we should start zebra first. Wait until it is started and then start bgpd and other daemons.
**- How I did it**
I changed a graph to start daemons in the following order:
1. First start zebra
2. Then starts staticd and bgpd
3. Then starts vtysh -b and bgpeoi after bgpd is started.
