Why I did it
There were two regression issues introduced by BRCM SAI 4.3.3.8:
CS00012196056 [4.3.3.8][WARMBOOT] syncd[2584]: segfault at 5616ad6c3d80 ip 00007f61e0c6bc65 sp 00007fff0c5a7a90 error 4 in libsai.so.1.0[7f61e0a95000+3cd8000]
CS00012195956 [4.3.3.8] [TD3]Syncd Crash at brcm_sai_tnl_mp_create_tunnel()
How I did it
Patch for CS00012195956 from BRCM was validated to have addressed the tunnel creation issue.
Temporary worked around the issue by commenting out a portion of questionable code in BRCM SAI that seems to be the root cause of CS00012196056 .
How to verify it
See the BRCM cases for details.
Why I did it
Support multiple pcie configuration file and change the pcie status table name
This is to match with below two PRs.
Azure/sonic-platform-common#195Azure/sonic-platform-daemons#189
How I did it
Check pcie configuration file with wild card and change the device status table name
How to verify it
Restart with changes and see if the pcie check works as expected.
Why I did it
The SONiC switches get their docker images from local repo, populated during install with container images pre-built into SONiC FW. With the introduction of kubernetes, new docker images available in remote repo could be deployed. This requires dockerd to be able to pull images from remote repo.
Depending on the Switch network domain & config, it may or may not be able to reach the remote repo. In the case where remote repo is unreachable, we could potentially make Kubernetes server to also act as http-proxy.
How I did it
When admin explicitly enables, the kubernetes-server could be configured as docker-proxy. But any update to docker-proxy has to be via service-conf file environment variable, implying a "service restart docker" is required. But restart of dockerd is vey expensive, as it would restarts all dockers, including database docker.
To avoid dockerd restart, pre-configure an http_proxy using an unused IP. When k8s server is enabled to act as http-proxy, an IP table entry would be created to direct all traffic to the configured-unused-proxy-ip to the kubernetes-master IP. This way any update to Kubernetes master config would be just manipulating IPTables, which will be transparent to all modules, until dockerd needs to download from remote repo.
How to verify it
Configure a switch such that image repo is unreachable
Pre-configure dockerd with http_proxy.conf using an unused IP (e.g. 172.16.1.1)
Update ctrmgrd.service to invoke ctrmgrd.py with "-p" option.
Configure a k8s server, and deploy an image for feature with set_owner="kube"
Check if switch could successfully download the image or not.

Why I did it
Currently we leveraged the Supervisor to monitor the running status of critical processes in each container and it is more reliable and flexible than doing the monitoring by Monit. So we removed the functionality of monitoring the critical processes by Monit.
How I did it
I removed the script process_checker and corresponding Monit configuration entries of critical processes.
How to verify it
I verified this on the device str-7260cx3-acs-1.
Why I did it
In upgrade scenarios, where config_db.json is not carry forwarded to new image, it could be left w/o TACACS credentials.
Added a service to trigger 5 minutes after boot and restore TACACS, if /etc/sonic/old_config/tacacs.json is present.
How I did it
By adding a service, that would fire 5 mins after boot.
This service apply tacacs if available.
How to verify it
Upgrade and watch status of tacacs.timer & tacacs.service
You may create /etc/sonic/old_config/tacacs.json, with updated credentials
(before 5mins after boot) and see that appears in config & persisted too.

Why I did it
This PR aims to monitor the memory usage of streaming telemetry container and restart streaming telemetry container if memory usage is larger than the pre-defined threshold.
How I did it
I borrowed the system tool Monit to run a script memory_checker which will periodically check the memory usage of streaming telemetry container. If the memory usage of telemetry container is larger than the pre-defined threshold for 10 times during 20 cycles, then an alerting message will be written into syslog and at the same time Monit will run the script restart_service to restart the streaming telemetry container.
How to verify it
I verified this implementation on device str-7260cx3-acs-1.
Why I did it
Currently, there is a bug in the ntp.conf jinja2 template where it will ignore the src_intf directive in CONFIG_DB if there are multiple IP addresses associated with an interface. This code change fixes that bug and allows the template to select the correct source interface for NTP.
How I did it
I did this by modifying the macro in ntp.conf.j2 which determines if there is an ip address associated with an interface to set a state variable when it detects a valid interface entry in CONFIG_DB instead of outputting "true" directly (which could result in multiple "trues" outputted for interfaces with multiple valid IP addresses).
How to verify it
Add two ipv4 addresses to an interface in SONiC
Add the following configuration to config_db.json
{
"NTP": {
"global": {
"src_intf": "Ethernet1"
}
}
}
Replace Ethernet1 with the interface name of the one you assigned the IP addresses to.
Run sudo config reload -y
Open /etc/ntp.conf and verify that the following line exists
...
interface listen Ethernet1
...
The interface specified should be the one set in the previous steps.
Description for the changelog
[ntp] Fix ntp.conf template to allow setting of source port in CONFIG_DB
Why I did it
This SAI change is to Enable TD2 platforms to also be able to handle VFP-based sub-interfaces.
This is the feature that is also needed for TD2 platforms.
How to verify it
Guohan and Team has validated this feature change on TD2 platforms
#### Why I did it
If a process limits using nodes by mempolicy/cpusets, and those nodes become memory exhaustion status, one process may be killed by oom-killer.
No panic occurs in this case, because other node's memory may be free.
This means system total status may be not fatal yet.
#### How I did it
Remove 'vm.panic_on_oom=1' kernel flag from 'vmcore-sysctl.conf '
Map priority 0 to TC 1 and priority 1 to TC 0
Send traffic on priority 0 and 1 and verified that it gets mapped correctly in hw

Why I did it
start pcie-check.service after config-setup.service since pcie_util depends on device_info which is available with config db metadata.
How I did it
Add config-setup.service as a dependency of pcie-check.service
How to verify it
Upon reboot, check if the pcie-check.sh throws the platform api error which is dependent on DEVICE_METADATA
This is to pick up BRCM SAI 4.3.3.5-2 which contains 2 main changes:
1. hsdk-6.5.21-p1.patch (to address some field problems related to SDK issue.
2. Fix for CS00012097141 (remove some unnecessary debug setting that was causing non functional impacting problem at boot time)
Preliminary tests looks fine. BGP neighbors were all up with proper routes programmed
interfaces are all up
Manually ran the following test cases on S6100 DUT and all passed:
```
ipfwd/test_dir_bcast.py
fib/test_fib.py
vxlan/test_vxlan_decap.py
decap/test_decap.py
fdb/test_fdb.py

Why I did it
Finding running containers through "docker ps" breaks when kubernetes deploys container, as the names are mangled.
How I did it
The data is is available from FEATURE table, which takes care of kubernetes deployment too.
How to verify it
Deploy a feature via kubernetes and don't expect error from container_check.
- Support compile sonic arm image on arm server. If arm image compiling is executed on arm server instead of using qemu mode on x86 server, compile time can be saved significantly.
- Add kernel argument systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=0 for upgrade systemd to version 247, according to #7228
- rename multiarch docker to sonic-slave-${distro}-march-${arch}

Why I did it
Recent systemd upgrade from #7228 requires an extra cmdline parameter for dockerd to start properly.
Updating boot0 was missed as part of the systemd upgrade change.
How I did it
Just added the missing cmdline parameter in files/Aboot/boot0.j2
This change fixes#7372
How to verify it
Boot the image and dockerd should start normally.
Fix#7364
99-default.link - was always in SONiC, but previous systemd (<247) had an issue and it did not work due to issue systemd/systemd#3374. Now systemd 247 works.
However, such policy overrides teamd provided mac address which causes teamd netdev to use a random mac
address. Therefore, needs to be disabled.

Why I did it
Support readonly version of the command vtysh
How I did it
