It fixes the following error during build.
>>> fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
"SONIC_DPKG_CACHE_METHOD" : "cache"
"DPKG_CACHE_PATH" : "/var/cache/sonic/artifacts"
- Why I did it
When SONiC is configured with the management framework and/or telemetry services, the applications running inside those containers need to access some functionality on the host system. The following is a non-exhaustive list of such functionality:
Image management
Configuration save and load
ZTP enable/disable and status
Show tech support
- How I did it
The host service is a Python process that listens for requests via D-Bus. It will then service those requests and send a response back to the requestor.
This PR only introduces the host service infrastructure. Applications that need access to the host services must add applets that will register on D-Bus endpoints to service the appropriate functionality.
- How to verify it
- Description for the changelog
Add SONiC Host Service for container to execute select commands in host
