Why I did it
Radvd.conf.j2 template creates two copies of the vlan interface when there are more than one ipv6 address assigned to a single vlan interface. Changed the format to add prefixes under the same vlan interface block.
How I did it
Modifies radvd.conf.j2 and added unit tests
How to verify it
Configure multiple ipv6 address to the same vlan, start radvd
Unit test will check if radvd.conf with multiple ipv6 addresses is formed correctly
- Why I did it
Initially, we used Monit to monitor critical processes in each container. If one of critical processes was not running
or crashed due to some reasons, then Monit will write an alerting message into syslog periodically. If we add a new process
in a container, the corresponding Monti configuration file will also need to update. It is a little hard for maintenance.
Currently we employed event listener of Supervisod to do this monitoring. Since processes in each container are managed by
Supervisord, we can only focus on the logic of monitoring.
- How I did it
We borrowed the event listener of Supervisord to monitor critical processes in containers. The event listener will take
following steps if it was notified one of critical processes exited unexpectedly:
The event listener will first check whether the auto-restart mechanism was enabled for this container or not. If auto-restart mechanism was enabled, event listener will kill the Supervisord process, which should cause the container to exit and subsequently get restarted.
If auto-restart mechanism was not enabled for this contianer, the event listener will enter a loop which will first sleep 1 minute and then check whether the process is running. If yes, the event listener exits. If no, an alerting message will be written into syslog.
- How to verify it
First, we need checked whether the auto-restart mechanism of a container was enabled or not by running the command show feature status. If enabled, one critical process should be selected and killed manually, then we need check whether the container will be restarted or not.
Second, we can disable the auto-restart mechanism if it was enabled at step 1 by running the commnad sudo config feature autorestart <container_name> disabled. Then one critical process should be selected and killed. After that, we will see the alerting message which will appear in the syslog every 1 minute.

* First cut image update for kubernetes support.
With this,
1) dockers dhcp_relay, lldp, pmon, radv, snmp, telemetry are enabled
for kube management
init_cfg.json configure set_owner as kube for these
2) Each docker's start.sh updated to call container_startup.py to register going up
As part of this call, it registers the current owner as local/kube and its version
The images are built with its version ingrained into image during build
3) Update all docker's bash script to call 'container start/stop/wait' instead of 'docker start/stop/wait'.
For all locally managed containers, it calls docker commands, hence no change for locally managed.
4) Introduced a new ctrmgrd service, that helps with transition between owners as kube & local and carry over any labels update from STATE-DB to API server
5) hostcfgd updated to handle owner change
6) Reboot scripts are updatd to tag kube running images as local, so upon reboot they run the same image.
7) Added kube_commands.py to handle all updates with Kubernetes API serrver -- dedicated for k8s interaction only.

We were building a custom version of Supervisor because I had added patches to prevent hangs and crashes if the system clock ever rolled backward. Those changes were merged into the upstream Supervisor repo as of version 3.4.0 (http://supervisord.org/changes.html#id9), therefore, we should be able to simply install the vanilla package via pip. This will also allow us to easily move to Python 3, as Python 3 support was added in version 4.0.0.
**- How I did it**
- Remove Makefiles and patches for building supervisor package from source
- Install Python 3 supervisor package version 4.2.1 in Buster base container
- Also install Python 3 version of supervisord-dependent-startup in Buster base container
- Debian package installed binary in `/usr/bin/`, but pip package installs in `/usr/local/bin/`, so rather than update all absolute paths, I changed all references to simply call `supervisord` and let the system PATH find the executable to prevent future need for changes just in case we ever need to switch back to build a Debian package, then we won't need to modify these again.
- Install Python 2 supervisor package >= 3.4.0 in Stretch and Jessie base containers

When stopping the swss, pmon or bgp containers, log messages like the following can be seen:
```

```
This is due to the number of programs in the container managed by supervisor, all generating events at the same time. The default event queue buffer size in supervisor is 10. This patch increases that value in all containers in order to eliminate these errors. As more programs are added to the containers, we may need to further adjust these values. I increased all buffer sizes to 25 except for containers with more programs or templated supervisor.conf files which allow for a variable number of programs. In these cases I increased the buffer size to 50. One final exception is the swss container, where the buffer fills up to ~50, so I increased this buffer to 100.
Resolves https://github.com/Azure/sonic-buildimage/issues/5241
Remove radvd Makefile and patch, change docker-router-advertiser Dockerfile template to simply install the vanilla radvd package using apt-get.
- In PR https://github.com/Azure/sonic-buildimage/pull/2795, we started building radvd from source and patching it to prevent it from erroring out when advertising an MTU of 9100 which was greater than the MTU size configured on the bridge interface (1500), which was due to a limitation in the 4.9 Linux kernel.
- Master branch is now using Linux kernel 4.19. As of 4.18, the kernel supports setting a bridge MTU to a value > 1500.
- PR https://github.com/Azure/sonic-swss/pull/1393 modified vlanmgrd to take advantage of this and now configures the MTU of bridge interfaces in SONiC to the proper size of 9100. Therefore, we no longer need to patch radvd. Since we no longer need to patch radvd, we no longer need to build it from source, so we can save build time by going back to simply installing the vanilla radvd Debian package in the router-advertiser container.
**- Why I did it**
PR https://github.com/Azure/sonic-buildimage/pull/4599 introduced two bugs in the startup of the router advertiser container:
1. References to the `wait_for_intf.sh` script were changed to `wait_for_link.sh`, but the actual script was not renamed
2. The `ipv6_found` Jinja2 variable added to the supervisor config file goes out of scope before it is read.
**- How I did it**
1. Rename the `wait_for_intf.sh` script to `wait_for_link.sh`
2. Use the Jinja2 "namespace" construct to fix the scope issue
**- How to verify it**
Ensure all processes in the radv container start properly under the correct conditions (i.e., whether or not there is at least one VLAN with an IPv6 address assigned).
Calls to sonic-cfggen is CPU expensive. This PR reduces calls to
sonic-cfggen to one call during startup when starting radv service.

**- Why I did it**
Initially, the critical_processes file contains either the name of critical process or the name of group.
For example, the critical_processes file in the dhcp_relay container contains a single group name
`isc-dhcp-relay`. When testing the autorestart feature of each container, we need get all the critical
processes and test whether a container can be restarted correctly if one of its critical processes is
killed. However, it will be difficult to differentiate whether the names in the critical_processes file are
the critical processes or group names. At the same time, changing the syntax in this file will separate the individual process from the groups and also makes it clear to the user.
Right now the critical_processes file contains two different kind of entries. One is "program:xxx" which indicates a critical process. Another is "group:xxx" which indicates a group of critical processes
managed by supervisord using the name "xxx". At the same time, I also updated the logic to
parse the file critical_processes in supervisor-proc-event-listener script.
**- How to verify it**
We can first enable the autorestart feature of a specified container for example `dhcp_relay` by running the comman `sudo config container feature autorestart dhcp_relay enabled` on DUT. Then we can select a critical process from the command `docker top dhcp_relay` and use the command `sudo kill -SIGKILL <pid>` to kill that critical process. Final step is to check whether the container is restarted correctly or not.
- create a dockerfile-marcros.j2 file with all common operations
written as j2 macro
- use single dockerfile instruction for COPY and RUN commands
when possible to improve build time
- reorganize dockerfile instructions to make more cache friendly
(in case someday we will remove --no-cache to build docker images)
