Why I did it
Fix similar issue seen on #13739 but only for DCS-7050CX3-32S
How I did it
Add a kernel parameter to tell libata to disable NCQ
How to verify it
The message ata2.00: FORCE: horkage modified (noncq) should appear on the dmesg.

#### 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.
Original PR for master: #14280
#### 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.
#### Description for the changelog
[Buffer] Added cable length config to buffer config template for EdgeZoneAggregator

#### Why I did it

#### How to verify it

#### Description for the changelog

Why I did it
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

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:
admin@r-spider-05:~$ ls /host/image-fw-new-loc.0-dirty-20230208.193534/platform/fw-SPC.mfa
/host/image-fw-new-loc.0-dirty-20230208.193534/platform/fw-SPC.mfa
admin@r-spider-05:~$ ls -al /tmp/image-fw-new-loc.0-dirty-20230208.193534-fs/etc/mlnx/fw-SPC.mfa
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 66 Feb 8 17:57 /tmp/image-fw-new-loc.0-dirty-20230208.193534-fs/etc/mlnx/fw-SPC.mfa -> /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.
- How to verify it
Upgrade from 201911 to 202012
202012 to 201911 downgrade
202012 -> 202012 reboot
ONIE -> 202012 boot (First FW burn)

Why I did it
Some products might experience an occasional IO failure in the communication between CPU and SSD.
Based on some research it could be attributable to some device not handling ATA NCQ (Native Command Queue).
This issue currently affect 4 products:
DCS-7170-32C*
DCS-7170-64C
DCS-7060DX4-32
DCS-7260CX3-64
How I did it
This change disable NCQ on the affected drive for a small set of products.
How to verify it
When the fix is applied, these 2 patterns can be found in the dmesg.

The main issue is the pip/pip3 command cannot be found when the package is being installed by apt-get.
When using the dpkg install, the searching path is PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
When using the apt-get install, the searching path is PATH=/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
But the pip/pip3 default path is at /usr/local/bin, so dpkg works, but apt-get not work.
How I did it
Export the path /usr/local/bin for pip/pip3.
Make the deb packages can be installed by apt-get.
Why I did it
The current lazy installer relies on a filename sort for both unpack and configuration steps. When systemd services are configured [started] by multiple packages the order is by filename not by the declared package dependencies. This can cause the start order of services to differ between first-boot and subsequent boots. Declared systemd service dependencies further exacerbate the issue (e.g. blocking the first-boot script).
The current installer leaves packages un-configured if the package dependency order does not match the filename order.
This also fixes a trivial bug in [Build]: Support to use symbol links for lazy installation targets to reduce the image size #10923 where externally downloaded dependencies are duplicated across lazy package device directories.
How I did it
Changed the staging and first-boot scripts to use apt-get:
dpkg -i /host/image-$SONIC_VERSION/platform/$platform/*.deb
becomes
apt-get -y install /host/image-$SONIC_VERSION/platform/$platform/*.deb
when dependencies are detected during image staging.
How to verify it
Apt-get critical rules
Add a Depends= to the control information of a package. Grep the syslog for rc.local between images and observe the configuration order of packages change.
Why I did it
nameserver and domain entries from build system fsroot gets into sonic image.
How I did it
Clear /etc/resolv.conf before building image
How to verify it
Built image with it and verified with install that /etc/resolv.conf is empty
