Why I did it
Arista 7060 platform has a rare and unreproduceable PCIe timeout that could possibly be solved with increasing the switch PCIe timeout value. To do this we'll call a script for this platform to increase the PCIe timeout on boot-up.
No issues would be expected from the setpci command. From the PCIe spec:
"Software is permitted to change the value in this field at any
time. For Requests already pending when the Completion
Timeout Value is changed, hardware is permitted to use either
the new or the old value for the outstanding Requests, and is
permitted to base the start time for each Request either on when
this value was changed or on when each request was issued. "
How I did it
Add "platform-init" support in swss docker similar to how "hwsku-init" is called, only this would be for any device belonging to a platform. Then the script would reside in device data folder.
Additionally, add pciutils dependency to docker-orchagent so it can run the setpci commands.
How to verify it
On bootup of an Arista 7060, can execute:
lspci -vv -s 01:00.0 | grep -i "devctl2"
In order to check that the timeout has changed.
**- Why I did it**
We were building a custom version of Supervisor because I had added patches to prevent hangs and crashes if the system clock ever rolled backward. Those changes were merged into the upstream Supervisor repo as of version 3.4.0 (http://supervisord.org/changes.html#id9), therefore, we should be able to simply install the vanilla package via pip. This will also allow us to easily move to Python 3, as Python 3 support was added in version 4.0.0.
**- How I did it**
- Remove Makefiles and patches for building supervisor package from source
- Install Python 3 supervisor package version 4.2.1 in Buster base container
- Also install Python 3 version of supervisord-dependent-startup in Buster base container
- Debian package installed binary in `/usr/bin/`, but pip package installs in `/usr/local/bin/`, so rather than update all absolute paths, I changed all references to simply call `supervisord` and let the system PATH find the executable to prevent future need for changes just in case we ever need to switch back to build a Debian package, then we won't need to modify these again.
- Install Python 2 supervisor package >= 3.4.0 in Stretch and Jessie base containers
* Install ndppd during image build, and copy config files to image
* Configure proxy settings based on config DB at container start
* Pipe ndppd output to logger inside container to log output in syslog
Arp update process was not being started due to an issue with
the directory name having an extra 'd' in supervisor as in
'/etc/supervisord/conf.d/arp_update.conf'.

Calls to sonic-cfggen is CPU expensive. This PR reduces calls to
sonic-cfggen to one call during startup when starting swss service.

* Changes to add template support for copp.json.
This is needed so that we can install differnt type of
Traps based on Device Role (Tor/Leaf/Mgmt/etc...).
Initial use case is to install DHCP/DHCPv6 tarp only
for tor router.
