- Why I did it
There is a issue for counters after warm-reboot:
If I clear counters by command "sonic-clear counters", then execute 'warm-reboot' and whenSONiC is restart, the counters showed with command "show interface counters" is still old counters before "sonic-clear". It is not the right counters because the counters file in '/tmp' is lost in warm-reboot process.
- How I did it
I fixed it by saving '/tmp/portstat-0' folders in '/host/' before executing 'warm-reboot' (in pull request Azure/sonic-utilities#1099 ), and restore the counters folders back to '/tmp/' after warm-reboot process is finished.
- How to verify it
Clear counters by command 'sonic-clear'
sonic-clear counters
sonic-clear dropcounters
sonic-clear pfccounters
sonic-clear queuecounters
sonic-clear rifcounters
Execute 'warm-reboot'
Use command ‘show interface counters’ to see if the counters is right.
We are moving toward building all Python packages for SONiC as wheel packages rather than Debian packages. This will also allow us to more easily transition to Python 3.
Python files are now packaged in "sonic-utilities" Pyhton wheel. Data files are now packaged in "sonic-utilities-data" Debian package.
**- How I did it**
- Build and install sonic-utilities as a Python package
- Remove explicit installation of wheel dependencies, as these will now get installed implicitly by pip when installing sonic-utilities as a wheel
- Build and install new sonic-utilities-data package to install data files required by sonic-utilities applications
- Update all references to sonic-utilities scripts/entrypoints to either reference the new /usr/local/bin/ location or remove absolute path entirely where applicable

* [warm reboot] save configuration after warm reboot
After warm reboot, save a copy of in memory database to config_db.json,
upgrade procedure might have removed config_db.json to force new image
to reload minigraph. However, reload minigraph is skipped during warm
reboot. Missing config_db.json would cause device to fault in next
non-upgrading cold/fast reboot.

* Update finalize-warmboot.sh
After warm reboot is done, we need to disable warm reboot flag and
tear down anything setup for warm reboot and persisted across.
