* buildimage: Add gearbox phy device files and a new physyncd docker to support VS gearbox phy feature
* scripts and configuration needed to support a second syncd docker (physyncd)
* physyncd supports gearbox device and phy SAI APIs and runs multiple instances of syncd, one per phy in the device
* support for VS target (sonic-sairedis vslib has been extended to support a virtual BCM81724 gearbox PHY).
HLD is located at b817a12fd8/doc/gearbox/gearbox_mgr_design.md
**- Why I did it**
This work is part of the gearbox phy joint effort between Microsoft and Broadcom, and is based
on multi-switch support in sonic-sairedis.
**- How I did it**
Overall feature was implemented across several projects. The collective pull requests (some in late stages of review at this point):
https://github.com/Azure/sonic-utilities/pull/931 - CLI (merged)
https://github.com/Azure/sonic-swss-common/pull/347 - Minor changes (merged)
https://github.com/Azure/sonic-swss/pull/1321 - gearsyncd, config parsers, changes to orchargent to create gearbox phy on supported systems
https://github.com/Azure/sonic-sairedis/pull/624 - physyncd, virtual BCM81724 gearbox phy added to vslib
**- How to verify it**
In a vslib build:
root@sonic:/home/admin# show gearbox interfaces status
PHY Id Interface MAC Lanes MAC Lane Speed PHY Lanes PHY Lane Speed Line Lanes Line Lane Speed Oper Admin

In addition, docker ps | grep phy should show a physyncd docker running.

**- Why I did it**
When I tested auto-restart feature of swss container by manually killing one of critical processes in it, swss will be stopped. Then syncd container as the peer container should also be
stopped as expected. However, I found sometimes syncd container can be stopped, sometimes
it can not be stopped. The reason why syncd container can not be stopped is the process
(/usr/local/bin/syncd.sh stop) to execute the stop() function will be stuck between the lines 164 –167. Systemd will wait for 90 seconds and then kill this process.
164 # wait until syncd quit gracefully
165 while docker top syncd$DEV | grep -q /usr/bin/syncd; do
166 sleep 0.1
167 done
The first thing I did is to profile how long this while loop will spin if syncd container can be
normally stopped after swss container is stopped. The result is 5 seconds or 6 seconds. If syncd
container can be normally stopped, two messages will be written into syslog:
str-a7050-acs-3 NOTICE syncd#dsserve: child /usr/bin/syncd exited status: 134
str-a7050-acs-3 INFO syncd#supervisord: syncd [5] child /usr/bin/syncd exited status: 134
The second thing I did was to add a timer in the condition of while loop to ensure this while loop will be forced to exit after 20 seconds:
After that, the testing result is that syncd container can be normally stopped if swss is stopped
first. One more thing I want to mention is that if syncd container is stopped during 5 seconds or 6 seconds, then the two log messages can be still seen in syslog. However, if the execution
time of while loop is longer than 20 seconds and is forced to exit, although syncd container can be stopped, I did not see these two messages in syslog. Further, although I observed the auto-restart feature of swss container can work correctly right now, I can not make sure the issue which syncd container can not stopped will occur in future.
**- How I did it**
I added a timer around the while loop in stop() function. This while loop will exit after spinning
20 seconds.

Put a flag for fast-reboot to the db using EXPIRE feature. Using this flag in other part of SONiC to start in Fast-reboot mode. If we reload a config, the state in the db will be removed.
Issue Overview
shutdown flow
For any shutdown flow, which means all dockers are stopped in order, pmon docker stops after syncd docker has stopped, causing pmon docker fail to release sx_core resources and leaving sx_core in a bad state. The related logs are like the following:
INFO syncd.sh[23597]: modprobe: FATAL: Module sx_core is in use.
INFO syncd.sh[23597]: Unloading sx_core[FAILED]
INFO syncd.sh[23597]: rmmod: ERROR: Module sx_core is in use
config reload & service swss.restart
In the flows like "config reload" and "service swss restart", the failure cause further consequences:
sx_core initialization error with error message like "sx_core: create EMAD sdq 0 failed. err: -16"
syncd fails to execute the create switch api with error message "syncd_main: Runtime error: :- processEvent: failed to execute api: create, key: SAI_OBJECT_TYPE_SWITCH:oid:0x21000000000000, status: SAI_STATUS_FAILURE"
swss fails to call SAI API "SAI_SWITCH_ATTR_INIT_SWITCH", which causes orchagent to restart. This will introduce an extra 1 or 2 minutes for the system to be available, failing related test cases.
reboot, warm-reboot & fast-reboot
In the reboot flows including "reboot", "fast-reboot" and "warm-reboot" this failure doesn't have further negative effects since the system has already rebooted. In addition, "warm-reboot" requires the system to be shutdown as soon as possible to meet the GR time restriction of both BGP and LACP. "fast-reboot" also requires to meet the GR time restriction of BGP which is longer than LACP. In this sense, any unnecessary steps should be avoided. It's better to keep those flows untouched.
summary
To summarize, we have to come up with a way to ensure:
shutdown pmon docker ahead of syncd for "config reload" or "service swss restart" flow;
don't shutdown pmon docker ahead of syncd for "fast-reboot" or "warm-reboot" flow in order to save time.
for "reboot" flow, either order is acceptable.
Solution
To solve the issue, pmon shoud be stopped ahead of syncd stopped for all flows except for the warm-reboot.
- How I did it
To stop pmon ahead of syncd stopped. This is done in /usr/local/bin/syncd.sh::stop() and for all shutdown sequence.
Now pmon stops ahead of syncd so there must be a way in which pmon can start after syncd started. Another point that should be taken consideration is that pmon starting should be deferred so that services which have the logic of graceful restart in fast-reboot and warm-reboot have sufficient CPU cycles to meet their deadline.
This is done by add "syncd.service" as "After" to pmon.service and startin /usr/local/bin/syncd.sh::wait()
To start pmon automatically after syncd started.
* fix fast reboot compatibility
We should handle both cases for backward-compatible with 201803:
- fast-reboot
- SONIC_BOOT_TYPE=fast-reboot
* handle review comments
* add a comment that getBootType code snippet is shared between two files
* [services] Ensure swss and syncd services start before dependent services
* Add 'attach' functions to scripts which get installed to /usr/local/bin so that services only reference the one script each
* Add 'After=swss.service' to syncd.service
need to flush asic db in swss.sh instead of syncd.sh
orchagent might already started in swss.sh and put commands
into asic db before asic db is flushed in syncd.sh. This
causes race condition such as INIT_VIEW not passing to syncd.
