Backport of #13837
Upgrade from old image always requires squashfs mount to get the next image FW binary. This can be avoided if we put FW binary under platform directory which is easily accessible after installation:
admin@r-spider-05:~$ ls /host/image-fw-new-loc.0-dirty-20230208.193534/platform/fw-SPC.mfa
/host/image-fw-new-loc.0-dirty-20230208.193534/platform/fw-SPC.mfa

- Why I did it
202211 and above uses different squashfs compression type that 201911 kernel can not handle. Therefore, we avoid mounting squashfs altogether with this change.
- How I did it
Place FW binary under /host/image-/platform/mlnx/, soft links in /etc/mlnx are created to avoid breaking existing scripts/automation.
/etc/mlnx/fw-SPCX.mfa is a soft link always pointing to the FW that should be used in current image
mlnx-fw-upgrade.sh is updated to prefer /host/image-/platform/mlnx location and fallback to /etc/mlnx in squashfs in case new location does not exist. This is necessary to do image downgrade.
- How to verify it
Upgrade from 201911 to 202205
202205 to 201911 downgrade
202205 -> 202205 reboot
ONIE -> 202205 boot (First FW burn)

- Why I did it
sfp_event.py gets a PMPE message when a cable event is available. In PMPE message, there is no label port available. Current sfp_event.py is using sx_api_port_device_get to get 64 logical ports attributes, and find the label port from those 64 attributes. However, if there are more than 64 ports, sfp_event.py might not be able to find the label port and drop the PMPE message.
- How I did it
Don't use hardcoded 64, get logical port number instead.

Why I did it
In order to prevent the sonic-mgmt/tests/platform_tests/sfp/test_sfputil.py test failing on the log analyzer step.
The mentioned test is performing the sfputil reset EthernetX for every interface on the SONiC switch, this action will flap the SFP device status (INSTERTED -> REMOVED -> INSTERTED).
The SONiC XCVRD daemon will catch this SFP device status change (because it is monitoring the presence status of the cable).
To judge the cable presence status, currently, we are still leveraging to read the first bytes of the EEPROM, and the EEPROM could be not ready at some moment and the SONiC XCVRD daemon will print the error log to Syslog:

Update SDK/FW version - 4.5.3186/2010_3186 in order to have the following changes:
New functionality:
1. Added support for 6.5W (Class 8) in ports 49-50, 53-54, 57-58, and 61-62 on SN4600 system
Fix the following issues:
1. On very rare occasion (~1/100K), during I2C transaction with MMS1V50-WM and MMS1V90-WR modules on SN4700 system, the module may send unexpected stop which violate the I2C specification, possibly affecting the link up flow
2. When running 1GbE speeds on SN4600 system, the port remained active while peer side was closed
3. While toggling the cable with ‘sfputil lpmode on/off’, error msg like “ERR pmon#xcvrd: Receive PMPE error event on module 1: status {X} error type {y}” could be received
4. When toggling many ports of the Spectrum devices while raising 10GbE link up and link maintenance is enabled, the switch may get stuck and may need to be rebooted
5. When trying to reconfigure the Flex Parser header and Flex transition parameters after ISSU, the switch will returned an error even if the configuration was identical to that done before performing the ISSU
6. While moving from lossless to lossy mode while shared headroom was used, reduction of the shared headroom can only be done prior to pool type change and when shared headroom is not utilized
7. SLL configuration is missing in SDK dump
8. If TTL_CMD_COPY is used in Encap direction for a packet with no TTL, then the value passed in the ttl data structure will be used if non-zero (default 255 if zero)
9. PCI calibration changes from a static to a dynamic mechanism
10. Layer 4 port information is not initialized for BFD packet event. To address the issue, remote peer UDP port information was added in BFD packet event
11. SDK returned error when FEC mode is set on twisted pair, when FEC was set to None

100GbE FCI DAC (10137628-4050LF/HPE PN: 845408-B21) was recognized by mistake as supporting "cable burning' which caused the switch firmware to read page 0x9f (which unsupported in the cable) and to report this cable as having "bad eeprom".

If TTL_CMD_COPY is used in Encap direction for a packet with no TTL, then the value passed in the ttl data structure will be used if non-zero (default 255 if zero).
In SN2201: When configuring Force mode, user should configure Speed and FEC on both sides
In Flex Tunnel encapsulation flow, if the encapsulation is with an IPv6 header, the flow label field may not be updated as expected.
In some cases, when changing speed to 400GbE over 8 lanes, the first few packets would be dropped.
In some traffic patterns involving small packets, the PortRcvErrors counter may mistakenly count events of local physical errors due to an internal flow in the hardware that involves link packets.
On Spectrum systems, sometimes during link failure, not all previous firmware indications cleared properly, potentially affecting the next link up attempt.
On the NVIDIA Spectrum-2 switch, when receiving a packet with Symbol Errors on ports that are configured to cut-thought mode, a pipeline might get stuck.
PCI calibration changes from a static to a dynamic mechanism.
SDK debug dump shows "Unknown" Counter in RFC3635 Counter Group.
SDK debug dump shows "Unknown" Counter in the PPCNT Traffic Class Counter Group.

Spectrum-2 systems, do no support 1GbE on supported 40GbE modules.
When binding a UDP port which is already in use for BFD TX session, the error message appears incorrectly.
When Flex Tunnel was used, Flex Modifier sometimes experienced a brief mis-configuration during ISSU.
When many ports are active (e.g. 70 ports up), and the configuration of shared buffer is applied on the fly, occasionally, the firmware might get stuck.
When running 1GbE speeds on SN4600 system, the port remained active while peer side was closed.
When toggling many ports of the Spectrum devices while raising 10GbE link up and link maintenance is enabled, the switch may get stuck and may need to be rebooted.
When trying to reconfigure the Flex Parser header and Flex transition parameters after ISSU, the switch will returned an error even if the configuration was identical to that done before performing the ISSU.
While toggling the cable, and the low power mode is set to ON, an unexpected PMPE event error is received.

Why I did it
During the system boot up when 'show platform status' or 'show version' command is executed before STATE_DB CHASSIS_INFO table is populated, the show will try to fallback to use the platform API. The DMI file in mellanox platforms require root permission for access. So if the show commands are executed as admin or any other user, the following error log will appear in the syslog

How I did it

How to verify it

- Why I did it
This is for the eventual support of multiple architectures for the mellanox platform.
- How I did it
Change the location of the binaries in Switch-SDK-drivers so that the path specifies the target architecture in addition to the target distribution that the debians are built for.
This is the most straightforward way to separate binaries built against different architectures and selectively target them for installation in the mellanox SONiC image.

Updated SDK submodule along with the relevant Makefiles
- How to verify it
Build an image and run tests from "sonic-mgmt".

- Why I did it
To provide an ability to suppress ASAN false positives and have a clean ASAN report for docker-sonic-vs/mlnx-syncd/orchagent docker
- How I did it
Added the "print_suppressions=0" to ASAN configs.
- How to verify it
add a suppression to some ASAN-enabled component (the suppression should catch some leak)
build with ENABLE_ASAN=y
run a test and see that the ASAN report is empty instead of having the suppression summary

- Why I did it
"import sonic_platform" takes about 600ms ~ 1000ms, it is kind of slow. After this optimization, the time is about 100ms. The benefit is that those CLIs which does not need the slow import sentence would be faster than before.
- How I did it
Find slow import and call them when need.
- How to verify it
Measure the import time.
