* sonic-platform-modules-cel: broadcom: adapt for kernel 6.1 and bookworm
The i2c_driver->remove API declaration has been updated to return void instead
of int, as part of cleanup patches in 6.1. More details can be referred from
here: [1]. Update the remove API definition in the modules accordingly and
cleanup variables that go unused from the remove API.
Update python build commands for bookworm. The packaging based on calling
setup.py is deprecated and using build module/pip utility is the recommended
method for python packaging/installation. Further details can be referred to
from here: [2], [3]. The build module is picky about the package information file,
which needs to be either setup.py or pyproject.toml.
Additionally, fix formatting inconsistencies in debian/changelog reported by
`dh_installchangelogs` during the build.
Tested the changes by compiling the changes as below:
make sonic-slave-bash NOBUSTER=1 NOBULLSEYE=1
sudo dpkg -i target/debs/bookworm/linux-headers-6.1.0-11-2-*.deb
cd platform/broadcom/sonic-platform-modules-cel
KVERSION=6.1.0-11-2-amd64 dpkg-buildpackage
Also verified the python scripts under the sonic-platform-modules-cel with
pyflakes to ensure no new errors are flagged (with exception of unused modules).

* platform/pddf: i2c: adapt for kernel 6.1 and bookworm
* Fixup i2c_driver->remove API due to changes in the function
prototype (ref: [1]).
* Cleanup `MODULE_SUPPORTED_DEVICE` macros that were cleaned up in
the upstream (ref: [2]).
* Sanitize python packaging and installation using the `build` module
instead of calling the setup.py directly (ref: [3]. [4]).
Tested the changes by compiling pddf module as below:
make sonic-slave-bash NOBUSTER=1 NOBULLSEYE=1
sudo dpkg -i target/debs/bookworm/linux-headers-6.1.0-11-2-*.deb
cd platform/pddf/i2c

* platform/broadcom: include platform-modules-cel in builds
With pddf modules patched for 6.1, platform-modules-cel can be compiled
and included in the final image.
Testing by building sonic-broadcom.bin/sonic-broadcom-dnx.bin.

* pddf/i2c: revert correct rootdir for pip install
The pip install directory has been set to test-pkg1/ for testing the build and
incorrectly retained as is. Revert this to the correct path $(PACKAGE_PRE_NAME).

* platform/broadcom: include pddf/modules-cel in the base package
Without this change, the modules were built but not packaged in the final .bin.
The final sonic-broadcom.bin has been tested for bootup on Celestica's
Silverstone platform.

Why I did it
Some of the platform vendors use FPGA in the HW design. This FPGA is connected to the CPU via PCIe interface. This FPGA also works as an I2C controller having other devices attached to the I2C channels emanating from it. Adding a common module, a driver and a platform specific algorithm module to be used for such FPGA in PDDF.
How I did it
Added 'pddf_fpgapci_module', 'pddf_fpgapci_driver' and a sample algorithm module for Xilinx device 7021. Kernel modules which takes the platform dependent data from PDDF JSON files and initialises the PCIe FPGA. The sample algorithm module can be used by the ODMs in case the communication algorithms are same for their device. Else, they need to come up with similar algo module.
How to verify it
Any platform having such an FPGA and brought up using PDDF would use these kernel modules. The detail representation of such a device in PDDF JSON file is covered in the HLD.
Why I did it
Some of the platform vendors use FPGA in the HW design. This FPGA is connected to the CPU via I2C bus. Adding a common module and a driver to be used for such FPGA in PDDF.
How I did it
Added 'pddf_fpgai2c_module' and 'pddf_fpgai2c_driver' kernel modules which takes the platform dependent data from PDDF JSON files and creates an I2C client for the FPGA.
How to verify it
Any platform having such an FPGA and brought up using PDDF would use these kernel modules. The detail representation of such a device in PDDF JSON file is covered in the HLD.
- Why I did it
There were compilation errors and warnings like,
/usr/src/linux-headers-5.10.0-8-2-common/scripts/Makefile.build:69: You cannot use subdir-y/m to visit a module Makefile. Use obj-y/m instead.
fatal error: linux/platform_data/pca954x.h: No such file or directory
hwmon_device_register() is deprecated. Please convert the driver to use hwmon_device_register_with_info().
If PDDF kernel module compilation fails, the PDDF debian package was not detecting the break.
- How I did it
Modified the code with new kernel 5.10 APIs.
Modified the Makefiles to use 'obj-m' instead of 'subdir-y'
- How to verify it
PDDF is supported on Accton platform. Load the build on AS7326 setup and check the 'dmesg'
This change introduces PDDF which is described here: https://github.com/Azure/SONiC/pull/536
Most of the platform bring up effort goes in developing the platform device drivers, SONiC platform APIs and validating them. Typically each platform vendor writes their own drivers and platform APIs which is very tailor made to that platform. This involves writing code, building, installing it on the target platform devices and testing. Many of the details of the platform are hard coded into these drivers, from the HW spec. They go through this cycle repetitively till everything works fine, and is validated before upstreaming the code.
PDDF aims to make this platform driver and platform APIs development process much simpler by providing a data driven development framework. This is enabled by:
JSON descriptor files for platform data
Generic data-driven drivers for various devices
Generic SONiC platform APIs
Vendor specific extensions for customisation and extensibility
