Why I did it
In an effort to allow people to build a slim version of SONiC to fit on devices to small storage, there is a need to disable some unneeded features.
The docker-gbsyncd are only applicable to devices with external gearboxes and might not apply to devices that need a small image.
It is therefore desirable to have a knob to not include these gbsyncd containers.
Work item tracking
Microsoft ADO (number only):
How I did it
Add a new config INCLUDE_GBSYNCD which is enabled by default to retain the previous behavior.
Setting it to n will not include the platform/components/docker-gbsyncd-*.mk.
How to verify it
Set INCLUDE_GBSYNCD = n and witness that docker-gbsyncd images are not present in the final image.
- Use SfpOptoeBase by default to leverage new `sonic_xcvr` refactor
- Add support for `Woodleaf` product
- Move `libsfp-eeprom.so` to a different `.deb` package
- Add new logrotate configuration for arista logs
- Improve logging mechanism for the drivers (IO loglevel, fix syslog duplicates)
- Initialize chassis cards in parallel
- Refactor of `get_change_event` to fix interrupts treated as presence change
#### Why I did it
- To build flashrom properly with dependency tracking.
#### How I did it
- Moved flashrom code from platform/broadcom/sonic-platform-modules-dell/tools directory to src/flashrom directory.
- At the end, flashrom_0.9.7_amd64.deb package is build which will be installed in the devices.
- Currently flashrom builds only for Dell S6100 platforms.
Introduce new sonic-buildimage images for Broadcom DNX ASIC family.
sonic-broadcom-dnx.bin
sonic-aboot-broadcom-dnx.swi
How I did it
NO CHANGE to existing make commands
make init; make configure PLATFORM=broadcom; make target/sonic-aboot-broadcom.swi; make target/sonic-broadcom.bin
The difference now is that it will result in new broadcom images for DNX asic family as well.
sonic-broadcom.bin, sonic-broadcom-dnx.bin
sonic-aboot-broadcom.swi, sonic-aboot-broadcom-dnx.swi
Note: This PR also adds support for Broadcom SAI 5.0 (based on 1.8 SAI ) for DNX based platform + changes in platform x86_64-arista_7280cr3_32p4 bcm config files and platform_env.conf files
- Add Makefile rules to build debug containers for SWI images

- What I did
Move the enabling of Systemd services from sonic_debian_extension to a new systemd generator
- How I did it
Create a new systemd generator to manually create symlinks to enable systemd services
Add rules/Makefile to build generator
Add services to be enabled to /etc/sonic/generated_services.conf to be read by the generator at boot time

- The driver package was split into bins, drivers, python2, python3
- Introduce some tracing regarding the switch chip reset
- Add watchdog during boot for DCS-7260CX3-64
1. _INSTALLS defines the packages to be installed in the image
at the build time.
2. _LAZY_INSTALLS defines the packages to be installed in the image
at the first run time
3. _DEPENDS defines the packages to at the build dependency of
the image
