#### Why I did it
- xcvrd crash was seen in latest 201811 images.
- For Dell S6100,API 2.0 uses poll mode while 1.0 was still using interrupt mode.
#### How I did it
- Modified get_transceiver_change_event in 1.0 to poll mode.
- Why I did it
The pcie configuration file location is under plugin directory not under platform directory.
#6437
- How I did it
Move all pcie.yaml configuration file from plugin to platform directory.
Remove unnecessary timer to start pcie-check.service
Move pcie-check.service to sonic-host-services
- How to verify it

- Also fix Python 3-related issues:
- Use integer (floor) division in config_samples.py (sonic-config-engine)
- Replace print statement with print function in eeprom.py plugin for x86_64-kvm_x86_64-r0 platform
- Update all platform plugins to be compatible with both Python 2 and Python 3
- Remove shebangs from plugins files which are not intended to be executable
- Replace tabs with spaces in Python plugin files and fix alignment, because Python 3 is more strict
- Remove trailing whitespace from plugins files
- Make DellEMC platform modules Python3 compliant.
- Change return type of PSU Platform APIs in DellEMC Z9264, S5232 and Thermal Platform APIs in S5232 to 'float'.
- Remove multiple copies of pcisysfs.py.
- PEP8 style changes for utility scripts.
- Build and install Python3 version of sonic_platform package.
- Fix minor Platform API issues.
* xcvrd OIR support for Dell S6100/Z9100 switches
Introduced check_interrupts function to handle missed interrupts.
port_dict updated and returned for appropriate OIR events.
Added support for both S6100/Z9100 switches.
* Revamped sfputil.py for PEP8 Standards
( All device-specific files now reside under /device directory in a <vendor-name>/<platform-string>/<hardware-SKU> directory structure in repo.
* Device-specific files are now packaged into a Debian package (sonic-device-data) and are now installed to /usr/share/sonic/device/<platform-string>/<hardware-SKU>/ directory on switch.
