Support for SONIC chassis isolation using TSA and un-isolation using TSB from supervisor module
Work item tracking
Microsoft ADO (number only): 17826134
How I did it
When TSA is run on the supervisor, it triggers TSA on each of the linecards using the secure rexec infrastructure introduced in sonic-net/sonic-utilities#2701. User password is requested to allow secure login to linecards through ssh, before execution of TSA/TSB on the linecards
TSA of the chassis withdraws routes from all the external BGP neighbors on each linecard, in order to isolate the entire chassis. No route withdrawal is done from the internal BGP sessions between the linecards to prevent transient drops during internal route deletion. With these changes, complete isolation of a single linecard using TSA will not be possible (a separate CLI/script option will be introduced at a later time to achieve this)
Changes also include no-stats option with TSC for quick retrieval of the current system isolation state
This PR also reverts changes in #11403
How to verify it
These changes have a dependency on sonic-net/sonic-utilities#2701 for testing
Run TSA from supervisor module and ensure transition to Maintenance mode on each linecard
Verify that all routes are withdrawn from eBGP neighbors on all linecards
Run TSB from supervisor module and ensure transition to Normal mode on each linecard
Verify that all routes are re-advertised from eBGP neighbors on all linecards
Run TSC no-stats from supervisor and verify that just the system maintenance state is returned from all linecards

To clear teamd timer when fast-reboot is finalized to prevent any further affect.
- How I did it
Deleted teamd timer from config-db in fast-reboot finalizer.
config save call is moved to after clearing teamd-timer so it won't have any further affect as well.
- How to verify it
Verified manually that entry was deleted after fast-reboot was finailized.
rasdaemon is a tool to log hardware errors. It takes 100% CPU during
boot for a few seconds. It impacts fast/warm boot by delaying control

chassis-packet: missing arp entries for static routes causing high orchagent cpu usage
It is observed that some sonic-mgmt test case calls sonic-clear arp, which clears the static arp entries as well. Orchagent or arp_update process does not try to resolve the missing arp entries after clear.
How I did it
arp_update should resolve the missing arp/ndp static route
entries. Added code to check for missing entries and try ping if any
found to resolve it.
How to verify it
After boot or config reload, check ipv4 and ipv4 neigh entries to make sure all static route entries are present
manual validation:
Use sonic-clear arp and sonic-clear ndp to clear all neighbor entries
run arp_update
Check for neigh entries. All entries should be present.
Testing on T0 setup route/for test_static_route.py
The test set the STATIC_ROUTE entry in conifg db without ifname:
sonic-db-cli CONFIG_DB hmset 'STATIC_ROUTE|2.2.2.0/24' nexthop 192.168.0.18,192.168.0.25,192.168.0.23
"STATIC_ROUTE": {
"2.2.2.0/24": {
"nexthop": "192.168.0.18,192.168.0.25,192.168.0.23"
}
},
Validate that the arp_update gets the proper ARP_UPDATE_VARDS using arp_update_vars.j2 template from config db and does not crash:
{ "switch_type": "", "interface": "", "pc_interface" : "PortChannel101 PortChannel102 PortChannel103 PortChannel104 ", "vlan_sub_interface": "", "vlan" : "Vlan1000", "static_route_nexthops": "192.168.0.18 192.168.0.25 192.168.0.23 ", "static_route_ifnames": "" }

How I did it
- Why I did it
To solve an issue with upgrade with fast-reboot including FW upgrade which has been introduced since moving to fast-reboot over warm-reboot infrastructure.
As well, this introduces fast-reboot finalizing logic to determine fast-reboot is done.
- How I did it
Added logic to finalize-warmboot script to handle fast-reboot as well, this makes sense as using fast-reboot over warm-reboot this script will be invoked. The script will clear fast-reboot entry from state-db instead of previous implementation that relied on timer. The timer could expire in some scenarios between fast-reboot finished causing fallback to cold-reboot and possible crashes.
As well this PR updates all services/scripts reading fast-reboot state-db entry to look for the updated value representing fast-reboot is active.
- How to verify it
Run fast-reboot and check that fast-reboot entry exists in state-db right after startup and being cleared as warm-reboot is finalized and not due to a timer.

Why I did it
Orchagent sometimes take additional time to execute Tunnel tasks. This cause write_standby script to error out and mux state machines are not initialized. It results in show mux status missing some ports in output.

How I did it
Increase timeout from 60s to 90s
How to verify it
Verified that mux state machine is initialized and show mux status has all needed ports in it.
Why I did it
At service start up time, there are chances that the networking service is being restarted by interface-config service. When that happens, write_standby could fail to make DB connections due to loopback interface is being reconfigured.
How I did it
Force the db connector to use unix socket to avoid loopback reconfig timing window.
How to verify it
Run config reload test 20+ times and no issue encountered.

Why I did it
All these 3 services started after swss service, which used to start after interface-config service. But #13084 remove the time constraints for swss.
After that, these 3 services has the chance of start earlier when the inteface-config service is restarting the networking service, which could cause db connect request to fail.
How I did it
Delay mux/sflow/snmp timer after the interface-config service.

How I did it
Why I did it
SONiC currently does not identify 'EdgeZoneAggregator' neighbor. As a result, the buffer profile attached to those interfaces uses the default cable length which could cause ingress packet drops due to insufficient headroom. Hence, there is a need to update the buffer templates to identify such neighbors and assign the same cable length as used by the T1.
How I did it
Modified the buffer template to identify EdgeZoneAggregator as a neighbor device type and assign it the same cable length as a T1/leaf router.
How to verify it
Unit tests pass, and manually checked on a 7260 to see the changes take effect.

This PR addresses the issue mentioned above by loading the acl config as a service on a storage backend device
How I did it
The new acl service is a oneshot service which will start after swss and does some retries to ensure that the SWITCH_CAPABILITY info is present before attempting to load the acl rules. The service is also bound to sonic targets which ensures that it gets restarted during minigraph reload and config reload
How to verify it
Build an image with the following changes and did the following tests
Verified that acl is loaded successfully on a storage backend device after a switch boot up
Verified that acl is loaded successfully on a storage backend ToR after minigraph load and config reload
Verified that acl is not loaded if the device is not a storage backend ToR or the device does not have a DATAACL table

Add Secure Boot support to SONiC OS.
Secure Boot (SB) is a verification mechanism for ensuring that code launched by a computer's UEFI firmware is trusted. It is designed to protect a system against malicious code being loaded and executed early in the boot process before the operating system has been loaded.
- How I did it
Added a signing process to sign the following components:
shim, grub, Linux kernel, and kernel modules when doing the build, and when feature is enabled in build time according to the HLD explanations (the feature is disabled by default).
- How to verify it
There are self-verifications of each boot component when building the image, in addition, there is an existing end-to-end test in sonic-mgmt repo that checks that the boot succeeds when loading a secure system (details below).
How to build a sonic image with secure boot feature: (more description in HLD)
Required to use the following build flags from rules/config:
SECURE_UPGRADE_MODE="dev"
SECURE_UPGRADE_DEV_SIGNING_KEY="/path/to/private/key.pem"
SECURE_UPGRADE_DEV_SIGNING_CERT="/path/to/cert/key.pem"
After setting those flags should build the sonic-buildimage.
Before installing the image, should prepared the setup (switch device) with the follow:
check that the device support UEFI
stored pub keys in UEFI DB
enabled Secure Boot flag in UEFI
How to run a test that verify the Secure Boot flow:
The existing test "test_upgrade_path" under "sonic-mgmt/tests/upgrade_path/test_upgrade_path", is enough to validate proper boot
You need to specify the following arguments:
Base_image_list your_secure_image
Taget_image_list your_second_secure_image
Upgrade_type cold
And run the test, basically the test will install the base image given in the parameter and then upgrade to target image by doing cold reboot and validates all the services are up and working correctly
Fixes#13568
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:

/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.
