= Why I did it
To optimize Mellanox platform SAI build
- How I did it
SAI debs are now downloaded as Spectrum-SDK-Drivers-SONiC-Bins release.
- How to verify it
Configure/build for Mellanox platform, check the image and ensure that correct SAI debs are included.
- Why I did it
The reset cause "reset_from_comex" has been removed by hw-management, hence removing it from platform API code
- How I did it
Remove reset_from_comex from reboot cause mapping
- How to verify it
Manual test
- Why I did it
BIOS on new generation switch can come with a file type of cap or cab. Needs to add support to these file type.
Also ONIE version on new devices can have a suffix of 'dev'.
- How I did it
Added cap & cab as possible component extensions for ComponentBIOS.
Update the ONIE version regex to include dev signed versions.
- How to verify it
Update BIOS.
Why I did it
port_config.ini and hwsku.json are needed to generate the default config
switch_type needs to be "dpu" to spawn the right set of processes during dvs initialization and to make sure that DASH APIs can be handled properly

Microsoft ADO 24375371:
How I did it
Use the same hwsku.json and port_config.ini for DPU-2P as the ones used for Nvidia-MBF2H536C SKU in nvidia-sonic sonic-buildimage repo.
Set switch_type to "dpu" in DEVICE_METADATA configuration to make sure DASH specific APIs are handled properly

Why I did it
To support dynamic swapping of module types/speeds (400G/100G/40G)
To optimize CMIS ZR optics operation
How I did it
Reinitialize xcvr_api at module removal/insertion time, and also optimize cache for ZR optics.
How to verify it
Verify that different (supported) module types can be dynamically swapped (removed/inserted) and that each is properly provisioned by Xcvrd and has its EEPROM information accurately reported in Redis DB (using "show transceiver eeprom") as well as "sfputil show eeprom" direct access.
Also verify that Xcvrd initialization and operation with 400G CMIS ZR optics is both efficient and functional.
** edit 6/14/23: pushed enhanced caching (full memory map) support and elimination of base class APIs override.
Why I did it
Sharing the storage of syncd with other proprietary application extensions allows them to communicate with syncd in differnt ways.
If one container wants to pass some information to syncd then shared storage can be used. However, today the shared storage isn't cleaned on restarts making it possible for syncd to read out-of-date information generated in the past.
NOTE: No plans to use it for standard SONIC dockers and we are working on removing the SDK dependency from PMON docker
How I did it
Implemented new service to clean the shared storage.
How to verify it
Do reboot/fast-reboot/warm-reboot/config-reload/systemctl restart swss and verify /tmp/ is cleaned after each restart in syncd container.

- Why I did it
SDK patches for iproute2 were added to SONiC tree as a temporary solution.
Now that SDK with the patches is available, I have removed the patches from SONiC tree and we consume them from SDK github during compilation.
- How I did it
During build we download SDK iproute2 patches from SDK github (or from the URL provided by user if compiling SDK from sources) and apply them before compilation.
- How to verify it
Compile and load on switch, verify interfaces network devices created successfully.
Verify LLDP shows connections to neighbors.
Verify ping between 2 hosts over 2 router ports is successful.

FPGA driver crash was observed in Dell FPGA based platforms.
How I did it

How to verify it

Why I did it
When git clone -b xxx command is used the versions-git will reset the HEAD of the git to the commit ID in the versions-git file. Which causes incorrect commit to be checked out causing build errors.

#### Why I did it
Facilitate Automatic integration of sdk kernel patches into SONiC.
**Inputs to the Script:**
1) `MLNX_SDK_VERSION` Eg: `4.5.4206`
2) `MLNX_SDK_ISSU_VERSION` Eg: `101`
**Note: If nothing is provided the one already present in the sdk.mk file is used**
3) `MLNX_SDK_SOURCE_BASE_URL:`
**Note: If nothing is provided the upstream sdk drivers url is used**
4) `CREATE_BRANCH: (y|n)` Creates a branch instead of a commit (optional, default: n)
5) `BRANCH_SONIC`: Only relevant when CREATE_BRANCH is y. `Default: master`.
Note: These should be provided through `SONIC_OVERRIDE_BUILD_VARS ` parameter
**Output:**
1) Script creates a commit in sonic-linux-kernel with any updates to sdk-kernel patches in sonic in accordance with the version provided by `MLNX_SDK_VERSION`
**Note: Script Doesn't commit anything to linux-kernel when there aren't any changes required..**
#### How I did it
1) Added a new make target which can be invoked by calling `make integrate-mlnx-sdk`
```

The current implementation of SFP reset, LPM, present relies on SDK API. This PR moves the implementation to SDK sysfs. By this PR, it gains following benefit:
1. SDK sysfs provides better performance.
2. Host side and container side share the same code.
3. Code is much cleaner.
- How I did it
Use SDK sysfs to implement SFP reset, LPM, present.
- How to verify it
1. Manual test.
2. Unit test.
SDK/FW Fixed Issues:
• When a system has more than 256 ACL entries, on rare occasion, removing/adding entries may cause some ACL entries not to work.
• When using mirror session policer on spectrum-2, spectrum-3, the actual CIR was 1.28 times more than the configured CIR value
• After warm boot process, when enabling ECN marking and the port is in split mode, traffic sent to the port under congestion (for example, when connecting two ports with a total speed of 50GbE to a single 25GbE port) is not marked.
• Warm boot might fail if the key value SAI_KEY_ACCUMULATED_FLOW_COUNTER_UNITS_IN_KB is set
• If counters are bound to an next hop group, there is a probability the next API calls that modify the next-hop group members will fail.
• In Spectrum platforms Fastboot mode is not operational for Split port with Force mode in 50G speed
• When fine grain next hop group has a size of 2K or 4K members, and group is removed, FW will remove only (size % 2048) members, resulting in leakage of KVD resources
• When reading some port statistics, or bulk reading some Queue or PG statistics, and in parallel reading or writing other counters, FW may, in rare cases, get stuck
• SN2201 Module 1 is considered to be present/linked while no cable/module is plugged
• On Spectrum-3 when port configure to 400G FW might stuck after running mlxlink while 400G interface connected and swap between upper and lower 4 lanes
SAI New features:
• ACL: Added support for an ACL match on the AETH field (SAI_ACL_TABLE_ATTR_FIELD_AETH_SYNDROME, SAI_ACL_ENTRY_ATTR_FIELD_AETH_SYNDROME) to count RoCE NAK and CNP packets.
• PLL Status: Added a new logging entry that alerts the user upon a PLL lock loss event.
• Dual ToR - Additional MAC Address: Added support for setting a MAC address for the router interface which is not part of the 10 bit MAC address available for RIFs on Spectrum-1, as part of the Dual ToR scenario.
• Dual ToR: DSCP Remapping Added support for tunnel QoS maps as part of the Dual TOR scenario.
SAI Fixed issues:
• When setting a WRED profile attribute for a color that was not enabled during the profile create time, an error would be returned. After the fix, a default profile is create on such scenario and the set attribute is applied on top of it
• When calling the flush FDB by using the SAI_FDB_FLUSH_ATTR_BRIDGE_PORT_ID attribute, the bridge bv_id value was filled on the notification callback where it should have been left empty.

Using timer-override.conf, we modify the fstrim.timer service.
For armhf, Nokia-7215 platform, we modify fstrim.timer to run daily
instead of weekly. This is required because the size of the SSD on
this platform is 16GB, which on average is nearly 10 times smaller than
most other sonic platforms. With smaller disk and the ever increasing
level of logging done by sonic, this change is required to prevent
the SSD from entering a read-only state due to inadequate free blocks.
