Why I did it
Networking devices need to be responsive. Such responsiveness is harmed when the CPU change state.
There is a latency penalty when a CPU is idle (e.g C2) and need to exit this state to come back to C1 state.
To prevent this from happening the CPU should be forced to remain in C1 state.
How I did it
Generalize the cstate forcing to C1 to all Arista products.
This is done by adding processor.max_cstate=1 to the kernel cmdline for all CPUs.
Additionally Intel CPUs also need intel_idle.max_cstate=0 to fallback to the acpi_idle driver.
How to verify it
Check that processor.max_cstate=1 is present on the cmdline for AMD CPUs
Check that both processor.max_cstate=1 and intel_idle.max_cstate=0 are present on the cmdline for Intel CPUs

Improve per-command authorization performance by read passwd entry with getpwent.
#### Why I did it
Currently per-command authorization will check if user is remote user with getpwnam API, which will trigger tacplus-nss for authentication with TACACS server.
But this is not necessary because when user login the user information already add to local passwd file.
Use getpwent API can directly read from passwd file, this will improve per-command authorization performance.

drivers for platform-nokia. Lazy install for drivers is added as

from a submodule(mrvl-prestera).
Additionaly, DTB required for sonic_fit creation during compile time
is sourced from sonic-linux-kernel.

What I did:
Make Sure for internal iBGP we are one-hop away (directly connected) by using Generic TTL security mechanism.
Why I did:
Without this change it's possible on packet chassis i-BGP can be established even if there no direct connection. Below is the example
- Let's say we have 3 LC's LC1/LC2/LC3 each having i-BGP session session with each other over Loopback4096
- Each LC's have static route towards other LC's Loopback4096 to establish i-BGP session
- LC1 learn default route 0.0.0.0/0 from it's e-BGP peers and send it over to LC2 and LC3 over i-BGP
- Now for some reason on LC2 static route towards LC3 is removed/not-present/some-issue we expect i-BGP session should go down between LC2 and LC3
- However i-BGP between LC2 and LC3 does not go down because of feature ip nht-resolve-via-default where LC2 will use default route to reach Loopback4096 of LC3. As it's using default route BGP packets from LC2 towards LC3 will first route to LC1 and then go to LC3 from there.
Above scenario can result in packet mis-forwarding on data plane
How I fixed it:-
To make sure BGP packets between i-BGP peers are not going with extra routing hop enable using GTSM feature
neighbor PEER ttl-security hops NUMBER
This command enforces Generalized TTL Security Mechanism (GTSM), as specified in RFC 5082. With this command, only neighbors that are the specified number of hops away will be allowed to become neighbors. This command is mutually exclusive with ebgp-multihop.
We set hop count as 1 which makes FRR to reject BGP connection if we receive BGP packets if it's TTL < 255. Also setting this attribute make sure i-BGP frames are originated with IP TTL of 255.
How I verify:
Manual Verification of above scenario. See blow BGP packets receive with IP TTL 254 (additional routing hop) we are seeing FIN TCP flags as BGP is rejecting the connection

Problem 1: Setting ONIE_IMAGE_PART_SIZE using env variable or using "make ONIE_IMAGE_PART_SIZE=65536 USERNAME=test PASSWORD=test all" did not work.
Problem 2: The platform specific file for example "device/x86_64-8201_32fh_o-r0/installer.conf" cannot override it by setting value of ONIE_IMAGE_PART_SIZE in the file. change 2 adds support to do that.
How I did it
Change 1: when ONIE_IMAGE_PART_SIZE, the files Makefile.work and slave.mk should pass that setting along all the way to build_image.sh. Please see commit 1.
Change 2: In installer/install.sh, save the value set during build time string replace into a value and then let this value be overridden later when installer.conf get read which is platform specific. If platform does not override it, the original value will continue to work. Please see commit 2.
How to verify it
1: The below command works now
make ONIE_IMAGE_PART_SIZE=65536 USERNAME=test PASSWORD=test all"
The image properly was installed using ONIE and the partition size reflects what was passed in the above build command.
If the above value is not set, the default from "onie-image.conf" takes effect and still works.
2: Set ONIE_IMAGE_PART_SIZE in platform specific file like below example
