If encountered a line without RequiredBy or WantedBy the code passes uninitialized pointer to get_install_targets_from_line(). Where it can fail with segfault or silently pass randomly.
- Why I did it
Uninitialized target_suffix is passed to get_install_targets_from_line() when other fields are present in [Install] section, like this:
root@sonic:/home/admin# systemctl cat ntpsec
...
[Install]
Alias=ntp.service
Alias=ntpd.service
WantedBy=multi-user.target
- How I did it
Initialize target_suffix with NULL, put an assert in get_install_targets_from_line(). Edited test to cover this scenario.
- How to verify it
UT and on the switch.

Why I did it
On certain routers with baud rate 9600, crash kernel is taking a long time , close to ~5mins, to complete kernel dump and reload the box. On contrast to routers with baud rate 115200, crash kernel dump process is observed to be completed under 35s-60s (depending on the platform). Currently, all debug and informational messages are printed on the console which also factors in for the delay seen. Unless the router is monitored on console in real time, these messages are not very useful. Setting the loglevel to warning will help reduce the verbosity of logs on console, in turn allow crash kernel dump process to be completed in a reasonable time which will also help in overall router recovery time.
How I did it
Setting loglevel attribute in crashkernel cmdline
How to verify it
Install SONiC image with crashkernel cmdline with loglevel set to warning and initiate an induced a crash (sysrq-trigger)
crashkernel boot and dump process will be completed in 20s-30s depending on the platform

How I did it
Install the pygobject before installing the sonic_host_services.
If installing during the .,whl, it will try to install the latest version (3.48.0), then it will have an issue. Prefer to use the version 3.46.0, see
sonic-buildimage/files/build/versions/host-image/versions-py3
Line 55 in a6437d8
pygobject==3.46.0
It will not add a new package, only install the depended packages firstly.

- Why I did it
Changing LPMODE timing is different between cables.
We want to add functionality to make sure LPMODE has changed.
For that, the wait_until utility is used and every 1 second (until timeout), it will check with lower-layers what is the current Lpmode.
Once it is the expected mode, set_lpmode() functino will return True.
If after seconds, Lpmode is still not in the expected mode, set_lpmode() function will return False.
- How I did it
Add use of wait_until function to make sure lpmode was changed.
- How to verify it
sfputil lpmode on
sfputil lpmode off

- Why I did it
The creation of system EEPROM VPD file "/var/run/hw-management/eeprom/vpd_info" is triggered by the udev event during the system boot up, in case the CPU is busy during the bootup, the udev event handling can be delayed, and need to wait for some more time for the file creation.
- How I did it
Extend the waiting time from 10s to 20s to overcome some extreme case.
- How to verify it

Fix the code to work also after warm reboot to work with FW controlled ports.
In warm reboot the control state sysfs of each port does not change unlike reboot or fast boot.
- How I did it
1. Check procfs cmdline if warm reboot done this is due to the fact pmon don't recognize warm reboot when it's taking place since pmon is loaded after warm reboot is finished.
2. If warm reboot done, check in static detection part for each port if it's FW controlled. If so, leave it this way and stop the state machine flow (set it to final state).
- How to verify it
1. Boot a switch with CMIS host management with at least one FW controlled port (non active cables or non cmis cables) then run warm reboot.
2. Verify no errors of sysfs reading appears for control sysfs
