- Create /var/run/redis/ folder on the host
- Install Python client for Redis on the host
- Mount /var/run/redis/ as read/write from host for all dockers
- Enable accessing the database everywhere including on the host and from remote

When Type=simple, systemd will consider the service activated immediately
after specified in ExecStart process is started. If there is downstream
service depending on the state prepared in ExecStart, there will be race condition.
For example, issue #390. In this case, database.service calls database.sh, which
calls docker run or docker start -a to start database container. However, systemd
considers database.service successfully started at the time database.sh begins,
not after docker run finishes. As database.service is consider started, bgp.service
can be started. The redis database, which bgp service depends on, might or might not
have been started at this time point.
To fix this issue (and still keeping the functionality to monitor docker status with
systemd), we split the ExecStart process into an ExecStartPre part and an ExecStart
part. docker run is splitted into docker run -d then docker attach , while docker start
-a is splitted into docker start and then docker attach. In this way, we make sure
the downstream services are blocked until container is successfully started.
The reason is that /etc/network/interfaces file is in base image. After booting,
docker-swss is not ready and thus the empty VLAN interfaces cannot be created
when the brctl is pointing to the binary inside the swss docker.
Add the bridge-utils into the base image and add bridge_ports none to the
/etc/network/interfaces file so that after boot-up the empty VLAN interfaces
will be created to let the members to join later.

* [files]: Add allow-hotplug stanza to interfaces files
- start interface <interface_name> when the kernel detects
a hotplug event from the interface
ref: https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/ch05.en.html
* [interfaces]: Combine vlan_interfaces and lag_interfaces file and add allow-hotplug
1. Remove vlan_interfaces and lag_interfaces file and members in teamd.j2
2. Add all interfaces to /etc/network/interfaces file
3. Add allow-hotplug stanza
4. Add up <command> to automatically add interfaces to VLAN and LAG
5. Add unique_name filter to minigraph.py to remove duplicate interface names
6. Add brctl to base image
7. Update sonic-swss submodule

Current implementation of swss and syncd causes a lot
of problems in terms of dependencies and synchronization.
Instead of handling them in separate services, we now
start and stop them both as a single entity.

( 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.
- Add a functionality to get SNMP community from DHCP (option 224)
- Add a functionality to get minigraph from http service instead of using default minigraph
- The url for graph service is passed through DHCP option 225
- This feature is by default disabled. Modify rule/config to enable it on build time, or modify /etc/sonic/graph_service_url on run time.
- Fix a bug that getting hostname from DHCP is not working correctly
On some platforms after the initramfs init scripts have mounted the root device its
block device disapear from /dev. The union-mount script therefore can't mount the
root device over the aufs. If this case happen, issue a rescan of the devices to
repopulate the /dev filesystem.
- Refactor of the whole script for readability purpose
- Now detect the root= partition automatically
- Allow more parameters to be passed to the cmdline using
/mnt/flash/kernel-params
- /host/machine.conf file will have to be generated at a later stage
since Aboot doesn't have enough information about the platform here
* Single image
* Fix review comments
* Update syncd service. Add HW mgmt to Mellanox single image.
* Add single image template for Broadcom platform.
SKU should be provided during configure:
make configure PLATFORM=broadcom SKU=Force10-S6000
* Add single image template for Cavium platform.
SKU should be provided during configure:
make configure PLATFORM=cavium SKU=AS7512
* Add description to sonic_debian_extension.j2 file.
This commit will convert the existing file system of flash drive on Arista switches from VFAT to EXT4 in the booting of SONiC. It will take the whole flash and therefore remove the recovery partition. There is a check in the script making sure that the conversion operation will not happen on a non-Arista switch or if the existing file system is not VFAT.
