The one big bgp configuration template was splitted into chunks.
Currently we have three types of bgp neighbor peers:
general bgp peers. They are represented by CONFIG_DB::BGP_NEIGHBOR table entries
dynamic bgp peers. They are represented by CONFIG_DB::BGP_PEER_RANGE table entries
monitors bgp peers. They are represented by CONFIG_DB::BGP_MONITORS table entries
This PR introduces three templates for each peer type:
bgp policies: represent policieas that will be applied to the bgp peer-group (ip prefix-lists, route-maps, etc)
bgp peer-group: represent bgp peer group which has common configuration for the bgp peer type and uses bgp routing policy from the previous item
bgp peer-group instance: represent bgp configuration, which will be used to instatiate a bgp peer-group for the bgp peer-type. Usually this one is simple, consist of the referral to the bgp peer-group, bgp peer description and bgp peer ip address.
This PR redefined constant.yml file. Now this file has a setting for to use or don't use bgp_neighbor metadata. This file has more parameters for now, which are not used. They will be used in the next iteration of bgpcfgd.
Currently all tests have been disabled. I'm going to create next PR with the tests right after this PR is merged.
I'm going to introduce better bgpcfgd in a short time. It will include support of dynamic changes for the templates.
FIX:: #4231
Now it's possible to add and remove peers based on ConfigDB
- What I did
Fixed functionality for dynamically adding/removing static bgp peers.
- How I did it
Split the bgp default template on bgp part and bgp peer part
Changed bgpcfgd to use 1.
- How to verify it
Build an image and run on your DUT
Update interfaces of bgpcfd from swsssdk to swsscommon to unify a suit of interface with other component. Meanwhile, we can listen multiple tables at one thread under swsscommon interface.

- What I did
Move the interface of bgpcfgd from swsssdk to swsscommon. Because bgpcfgd need to listen more events in the future and we want to maintain one kind of APIs, swsscommon is more suitable than swsssdk.
- How I did it
Refactor the BGPConfigDaemon to two components, Daemon and BGPConfigManager. We can register new managers to the Daemon object if we want to listen more events.
- use superviord to manage process in frr docker
- intro separated configuration mode for frr
- bring quagga configuration template to frr.
