- Why I did it
Optimize thermal control policies to simplify the logic and add more protection code in policies to make sure it works even if kernel algorithm does not work.
- How I did it
Reduce unused thermal policies
Add timely ASIC temperature check in thermal policy to make sure ASIC temperature and fan speed is coordinated
Minimum allowed fan speed now is calculated by max of the expected fan speed among all policies
Move some logic from fan.py to thermal.py to make it more readable
- How to verify it
1. Manual test
2. Regression
- Why I did it
To fix an issue that hw-mgmt patches were not applied. One patch was already in upstream hw-mgmt package thus applying it again caused an error and no other patches were applied. Also, I did it to improve the Makefile, so that the make will fail in case patches fail to apply.
- How I did it
Removed obsolete patch, made applying patches a hard failure in the build.
- How to verify it
Run the make and verify patches are applied.

Fix issue: SFP might not be re-initialized after cable plug in. There could be case like:
1. The SFP object was initialized as QSFP type
2. User use adapter to connect a SFP to a QSFP port
3. The SFP object treat the SFP as QSFP and failed to process EEPROM

If a new SFP is plugged, always re-initialize the SFP

Support zero buffer profiles
Add buffer profiles and pool definition for zero buffer profiles
Support applying zero profiles on INACTIVE PORTS
Enable dynamic buffer manager to load zero pools and profiles from a JSON file
Signed-off-by: Stephen Sun stephens@nvidia.com
How I did it
Add buffer profiles and pool definition for zero buffer profiles
If the buffer model is static:
- Apply normal buffer profiles to admin-up ports
- Apply zero buffer profiles to admin-down ports
If the buffer model is dynamic:
- Apply normal buffer profiles to all ports
- buffer manager will take care when a port is shut down
- Update buffers_config.j2 to support INACTIVE PORTS by extending the existing macros to generate the various buffer objects, including PGs, queues, ingress/egress profile lists
Originally, all the macros to generate the above buffer objects took active ports only as an argument
Now that buffer items need to be generated on inactive ports as well, an extra argument representing the inactive ports need to be added
To be backward compatible, a new series of macros are introduced to take both active and inactive ports as arguments
The original version (with active ports only) will be checked first. If it is not defined, then the extended version will be called
Only vendors who support zero profiles need to change their buffer templates
Enable buffer manager to load zero pools and profiles from a JSON file:
The JSON file is provided on a per-platform basis
It is copied from platform/<vendor> folder to /usr/share/sonic/temlates folder in compiling time and rendered when the swss container is being created.
To make code clean and reduce redundant code, extract common macros from buffer_defaults_t{0,1}.j2 of all SKUs to two common files:
One in Mellanox-SN2700-D48C8 for single ingress pool mode
The other in ACS-MSN2700 for double ingress pool mode
Those files of all other SKUs will be symbol link to the above files
Update sonic-cfggen test accordingly:
- Adjust example output file of JSON template for unit test
- Add unit test in for Mellanox's new buffer templates.
How to verify it
Regression test.
Unit test in sonic-cfggen
Run regression test and manually test.

* Reduce verbosity of warning message on shared memory already existing
* accuflow allocation support by key value

* Under various circumstances, Ethernet ports falsely showed that InfiniBand cables were connected.
* In SN4600C, at times, the link up time in both DAC and optics cables may, in the worst case, take up to 15 seconds.
* Using SN4600C with copper or optics loopback cables in NRZ speeds, link may raise in long link up times
* When ECMP has high amount of next-hops based on VLAN interfaces, in some rare cases, packets will get a wrong VLAN tag and will be dropped.
* When connecting Spectrum devices with optical transceivers that support RXLOS, remote side port down might cause the switch firmware to get stuck and cause unexpected switch behavior.
* Aggregation event is missing for WJH L2 drop reason 'Unicast egress port list is empty'.
* Tying the SCL and SDA of the optical modules to 3.3V causes errors.
* On SN4600, there was a delay of more than 10 seconds from the time a data packet is sent from CPU until it is transmitted through one of the switch ports.
* While using SN4600C system with Finisar FTLC1157RGPL 100GbE CWDM4 modules, intermittent link flaps across multiple ports may be observed.
* In Spectrum-2 and Spectrum-3 systems, link did not work in auto-negotiation when connected to Marvell PHY. KR mechanism has been enhanced to integrate with Marvell PHY.
* The tunnel counter counts the drop packets now for Spectrum-2 and Spectrum-3 and consistent with Spectrum behavior and count the ECN dropped packets as well.
* When connecting SN3800 to Cisco-9000, fast-linkup flow will fail and will rise in the normal flow.
* Race condition in WJH library: when multiple threads load the LAG shared memory concurrently, the program may crash.
* Add WJH L2 drop reason 'Unicast egress port list is empty' as a new drop reason.
* Fixed a memory leak in sx_api_port_sflow_statistics_get API.
* During initialization flow, the command interface that is used by the minimal driver and SDK caused the collision in the firmware since the same buffer is used in the firmware for the two interfaces.

- Why I did it
In case an app.ext requires a dependency syncd^1.0.0, the RPC version of syncd will not satisfy this constraint, since 1.0.0-rpc < 1.0.0. This is not correct to put 'rpc' as a prerelease identifier. Instead put 'rpc' as build metadata in the version: 1.0.0+rpc which satisfies the constraint ^1.0.0.
- How I did it
Changed the way how to version in RPC and DBG images are constructed.

Install app.ext with syncd^1.0.0 dependency on a switch with RPC syncd docker.

Bug fix:
bad_param request due to missing parser rest command while running mlxlink
- How I did it
Advance to MFT tool version to 4.17.2-12.
- How to verify it
Manually tested on all mellanox platforms.
- Why I did it
Upgrade to the latest version of hardware management in order to incorporate the latest bugfixes and drivers in the kernel.
- How I did it
Updated the version number and submodule for hw-mgmt.
- How to verify it
This has been verified on all Mellanox platforms through a combination of sonic-mgmt tests and other internal verification.
Why I did it
Currently the mellanox platform API is validating the file extensions of firmware packages to be installed for basic sanity checking. However, ONIE packages do not have an extension and as such if there is a "." in the name it is taken to be an extension and then fails the sanity check.
How I did it
I removed the check which ensures that ONIE images don't have a file extension.
How to verify it
Name the ONIE updater file 2021.onie and attempt to install it via fwutil install fw 2021.onie --yes
Why I did it
The fwutil update all utility expects the auto_update_firmware method in the Platform API to execute the update_firmware() call and not the install_firmware() call.
How I did it
Changed the method in the mellanox platform API component implementation.
How to verify it
Run fwutil update all with a CPLD update on a Mellanox platform and verify that it properly updates the firmware using the MPFA file.

Manual test
To Fix#8697 . The config load_minigraph initializes 'admin_status' to up when platform.json has DPB configs. This doesn't happen when using port_config.ini
The update minigraph has logic to initialize only the ports whose neighbors are defined or those belonging to portchannel
However, a change was introduced to have default admin status to be 'up' in portconfig.py when the minigraph was using platform.json
This will lead to sanity check failure in sonic-mgmt and thus no test cases could be run

This commit adds support for changing the default console baud rate configured
within the U-Boot bootloader. That default baud rate is exposed via the value
of the U-Boot 'baudrate' environment variable. This commit removes logic that
hardcoded the console baud rate to 115200 and instead ensures that the U-Boot
'baudrate' variable is always used when constructing the Linux kernel boot
arguments used when booting Sonic.
A change is also made to rc.local to ensure that the specified baud rate is set
correctly in the serial getty service.
