Fixes#13568
Upgrade from old image always requires squashfs mount to get the next image FW binary. This can be avoided if we put FW binary under platform directory which is easily accessible after installation:
admin@r-spider-05:~$ ls /host/image-fw-new-loc.0-dirty-20230208.193534/platform/fw-SPC.mfa
/host/image-fw-new-loc.0-dirty-20230208.193534/platform/fw-SPC.mfa
admin@r-spider-05:~$ ls -al /tmp/image-fw-new-loc.0-dirty-20230208.193534-fs/etc/mlnx/fw-SPC.mfa
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 66 Feb 8 17:57 /tmp/image-fw-new-loc.0-dirty-20230208.193534-fs/etc/mlnx/fw-SPC.mfa -> /host/image-fw-new-loc.0-dirty-20230208.193534/platform/fw-SPC.mfa
- Why I did it
202211 and above uses different squashfs compression type that 201911 kernel can not handle. Therefore, we avoid mounting squashfs altogether with this change.
- How I did it
Place FW binary under /host/image-/platform/mlnx/, soft links in /etc/mlnx are created to avoid breaking existing scripts/automation.
/etc/mlnx/fw-SPCX.mfa is a soft link always pointing to the FW that should be used in current image
mlnx-fw-upgrade.sh is updated to prefer /host/image-/platform/mlnx location and fallback to /etc/mlnx in squashfs in case new location does not exist. This is necessary to do image downgrade.
- How to verify it
Upgrade from 201911 to master
master to 201911 downgrade
master -> master reboot
ONIE -> master boot (First FW burn)

Why I did it
Vendor platform may require running platform specific pre-shutdown routine before shutting down the syncd process which runs the SAI and vendor sdk instance.
How I did it
Added a platform script hook which will be executed if the plugin script is provided by the platform in device//plugins/
#### Why I did it
Following the PR https://github.com/sonic-net/sonic-swss-common/pull/739 increasing netlink buffer size in linux kernel
As error is seen in fdbsyncd with netlink reports "out of memory on reading a netlink socket" It is seen when kernel is sending 10k remote mac to fdbsyncd.
#### How I did it
Increase the buffer size of the netlink buffer from 3MB to 16MB
#### How to verify it
Verified with 10k remote mac, and restarting the fdbsyncd process. So that kernel send the bridge fdb dump to the fdbsyncd.
Verified that the netlink buffer error is not reported in the sys log.

While /etc/resolv.conf has the correct content and ping (and any other utility that uses libc's DNS resolution implementation) works correctly
docker is unable to resolve the hostname and falls back to default [::1]:53. This started to happen after PR https://github.com/sonic-net/sonic-buildimage/pull/13516 has been merged.
As you can see from the log, dockerd is able to pick up the correct /etc/resolv.conf only after 5 sec since first try. This seems to be somehow related to the logic in Go's DNS resolver
https://github.com/golang/go/blob/master/src/net/dnsclient_unix.go#L385.
There have been issues like that reported in docker like:
- https://github.com/docker/cli/issues/2299
- https://github.com/docker/cli/issues/2618
- https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/22398
Since this starts to happen after inclusion of resolvconf package by
above mentioned PR and the fact I can't see any problem with that (ping,
nslookup, etc. works) the choice is made to force dockerd to use cgo
(libc) resolver.

- How I did it
Regarding buffer settings, originally, there are two lossless PGs and queues 3, 4. In dual ToR scenario, the lossless traffic from the leaf switch to the uplink of the ToR switch can be bounced back.
To avoid PFC deadlock, we need to map the bounce-back lossless traffic to different PGs and queues. Therefore, 2 additional lossless PGs and queues are allocated on uplink ports on ToR switches.
On uplink ports, map DSCP 2/6 to TC 2/6 respectively
On downlink ports, both DSCP 2/6 are still mapped to TC 1
Buffer adjusted according to the ports information:
Mellanox-SN4600c-C64:
56 downlinks 50G + 8 uplinks 100G
Mellanox-SN4600c-D48C40, Mellanox-SN2700, Mellanox-SN2700-D48C8:

- Why I did it
fixes#12907
When the management interface IP address configuration changes from dynamic to static the DNS configuration (retrieved from the DHCP server) in /etc/resolv.conf remains uncleared. This leads to a DNS configuration pointing to the wrong nameserver. To make the behavior clear DNS configuration received from DHCP should be cleared.
- How I did it
Use resolvconf package for managing DNS configuration. It is capable of tracking the source of DNS configuration and puts the configuration retrieved from the DHCP servers into a separate file. This allows the implementation of DNS configuration cleanup retrieved from DHCP during networking reconfiguration.
- How to verify it
Ensure that the management interface has no static configuration.
Check that /etc/resolv.conf has DNS configuration.
Configure a static IP address on the management interface.
Verify that /etc/resolv.conf has no DNS configuration.
Remove the static IP address from the management interface.
Verify that /etc/resolv.conf has DNS configuration retrieved form DHCP server.
Fixes#12408
Why I did it
We are running into #12408 very frequently.
This results in no syslogs from any containers as rsyslog server could not start.
some of the sonic-mgmt scripts look for log statements and error out if log is not present.
Interfaces-config service configures the loopback interface along with other interfaces. rsyslog-config reads ip address of loopback interface and generates /etc/rsyslog.conf. When this race condition happens, lo interface ip is not yet programmed and rsyslog-config ends up writing UDP server as null in /etc/rsyslog.conf.
How I did it
rsyslog-config service is started after interfaces-config service.
How to verify it
Did multiple reboots and verified that $UDPServerAddress is valid.
Adding /usr/local/bin/storyteller to READ_ONLY_CMDS. So no write access or prompt for password is needed to run storyteller.
Tested on 202205 clusters, user who didn't request write access was able to grep log using storyteller.

Changing the default config knob value to be True for killing radv, due to the reasons below:
Killing RADV is to prevent sending the "cease to be advertising interface" protocol packet.
RFC 4861 says this ceasing packet as "should" instead of "must", considering that it's fatal to not do this.
In active-active scenario, host side might have difficulty distinguish if the "cease to be advertising interface" is for the last interface leaving.
6.2.5. Ceasing To Be an Advertising Interface
shutting down the system.
In such cases, the router SHOULD transmit one or more (but not more
than MAX_FINAL_RTR_ADVERTISEMENTS) final multicast Router
Advertisements on the interface with a Router Lifetime field of zero.
In the case of a router becoming a host, the system SHOULD also
depart from the all-routers IP multicast group on all interfaces on
which the router supports IP multicast (whether or not they had been
advertising interfaces). In addition, the host MUST ensure that
subsequent Neighbor Advertisement messages sent from the interface
have the Router flag set to zero.

How I did it
radv sends a good-bye packet when the service is stopped, which causes a IPv6 route update on SoC side. And this update leads to an interface bouncing and causes traffic disruption even though the ToR device might already be isolated.
This PR is to mitigate the traffic disruption issue during planned maintenance, by killing radv instead of stopping. So the cease packet won't be sent.
How to verify it
Verified on dev clusters:
Traffic disruption was no longer reproducible.
radv took the killing path
if knob was off, radv would take the stopping path

The main issue is the pip/pip3 command cannot be found when the package is being installed by apt-get.
When using the dpkg install, the searching path is PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
When using the apt-get install, the searching path is PATH=/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
But the pip/pip3 default path is at /usr/local/bin, so dpkg works, but apt-get not work.

During build time mask only those feature/services that are disabled explicitly. Some of the features ((eg: teamd/bgp/dhcp-relay/mux/etc..)) state is determine run-time so for those feature by default service will be up and running and then later hostcfgd will mask them if needed.
So Default behavior will be
init_cfg.json.j2 during build time make state as disabled then mask the service
init_cfg.json.j2 during build time make state as another jinja2 template render string than do no mask the service
init_cfg.json.j2 during build time make state as enabled then do not mask the service

- Why I did it
The followup to #12920 PR.
If the feature compilation is disabled its configuration should not be included into init_cfg.json.
- How I did it
Update init_cfg.json.j2 template to include teamd and radv features configuration only if their compilation is enabled.
- How to verify it
The default behavior is preserved. To verify the changes compile the image without overriding INCLUDE_TEAMD and INCLUDE_ROUTER_ADVERTISER options. The generated /etc/sonic/init_cfg.json should remain with no changes. Install the image and verify that both teamd and radv containers are present and running. Verify that feature state returned by show feature status command is enabled.
Change the INCLUDE_TEAMD or INCLUDE_ROUTER_ADVERTISER value to "n". Compile and install the image. Verify that feature configuration is not included in generated /etc/sonic/init_cfg.json file. Verify that show feature status output doesn't include the feature.

Why I did it
Ubuntu 22.04 uses cgroup2 by default, but docker.sh doesn't mount it.
As a result we get an error when trying to run docker info in chroot env:
ERROR: Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?
How I did it
mount cgroup2 in chroot if all enabled kernel cgroup controllers are currently not in use by cgroup1
So we need to mount cgroup in chroot environment on /sys/fs/cgroup.
Because inside chroot we don't know which cgroup version is used by the host we have two possible solutions:
cgroup tree for chroot is mounted by the host (it was my 1st version of this fix)
cgroup tree is mounted inside chroot based on info from /proc/cgroups (it's current version of this fix)
My 2nd version based on this code from systemd: 5c6c587ce2/src/shared/cgroup-setup.c (L35-L74)
We parse info from /proc/cgroups
Skip header line started from #
Skip controller if it's disabled (4th column = 0)
Count number of controllers with non-zero of hierarchy_id (2nd column)
If this number is not zero then we assume some of controllers are used by host system and the host system uses hybrid or legacy cgroup tree. In this case we can't use unified cgroup tree inside chroot and mount old cgroup tree (v1).
If this number is zero then we assume host system uses unified cgroup tree and we need to mount cgroup2 inside chroot.

- Why I did it
This optimization is needed for DPU SONiC. DPU SONiC runs a limited set of containers and teamd and radv containers are not part of them. Unlike the other containers, there was no possibility to disable teamd and radv containers compilation.
To reduce DPU SONiC compilation time and reduce the image size this commit adds the possibility to disable their compilation.
- How I did it
Two new configuration options are added to rules/config file:
INCLUDE_TEAMD
INCLUDE_ROUTER_ADVERTISER
By default to preserve the existing behavior both options are enabled. There are two ways to override them:
To change option value to "n" in rules/config file.
To override their value using SONIC_OVERRIDE_BUILD_VARS env variable:
SONIC_OVERRIDE_BUILD_VARS="SONIC_INCLUDE_TEAMD=y SONIC_INCLUDE_ROUTER_ADVERTISER=n"
- How to verify it
The default behavior is preserved. To verify it compile the image without overriding new options. Install the image and verify that both teamd and radv containers are present and running.
To verify the new options override them with "n" value. Compile and install image. Verify that no docker containers are present. Verify that SWSS can start without errors.
Debian is shipping a systemd timer unit for logrotate, but we're also

During docker build, host files can be passed to the docker build through
docker context files. But there is no straightforward way to transfer
the files from docker build to host.
This feature provides a tricky way to pass the cache contents from docker
build to host. It tar's the cached content and encodes them as base64 format
and passes it through a log file with a special tag as 'VCSTART and VCENT'.
Slave.mk in the host, it extracts the cache contents from the log and stores them
in the cache folder. Cache contents are encoded as base64 format for
easy passing.

Why I did it
There is an issue on the Arista PikeZ platform (using T3.X2: BCM56274) while running SONiC. If the 'syncd' container in SONiC is restarted, the expected behaviour is that syncd will automatically restart/recover; however it does not and always fails at create_switch due to BCM SDK kmod DMA operation cancellation getting stuck.
Sep 16 22:19:44.855125 pkz208 ERR syncd#syncd: [none] SAI_API_SWITCH:platform_process_command:428 Platform command "init soc" failed, rc = -1.

Reloading the BCM SDK kmods allows the switch init to continue properly.
How I did it
If BCM SDK kmods are loaded, unload and load them again on syncd docker start script.
How to verify it
Steps to reproduce:
In SONiC, run 'docker ps' to see current running containers; 'syncd' should be present.
Run 'docker stop syncd'
Wait ~1 minute.
Run 'docker ps' to see that syncd is missing.
Check logs to see messages similar to the above.

Why I did it
The current lazy installer relies on a filename sort for both unpack and configuration steps. When systemd services are configured [started] by multiple packages the order is by filename not by the declared package dependencies. This can cause the start order of services to differ between first-boot and subsequent boots. Declared systemd service dependencies further exacerbate the issue (e.g. blocking the first-boot script).
The current installer leaves packages un-configured if the package dependency order does not match the filename order.
This also fixes a trivial bug in [Build]: Support to use symbol links for lazy installation targets to reduce the image size #10923 where externally downloaded dependencies are duplicated across lazy package device directories.
How I did it
Changed the staging and first-boot scripts to use apt-get:
dpkg -i /host/image-$SONIC_VERSION/platform/$platform/*.deb
becomes
apt-get -y install /host/image-$SONIC_VERSION/platform/$platform/*.deb

BGP service has always been starting after interface-config. However, recently we discovered an issue where some BGP sessions are unable to establish due to BGP daemon not able to read the interface IP.
This issue was clearly observed after upgrading to FRR 8.2.2. See more details in #12380.
How I did it
Delaying starting BGP seems to be a workaround for this issue.
However, caution is that this delay might impact warm reboot timing and other timing sequences.
This workaround is reducing the probability of hitting the issue by close to 100X. However, this workaround is not bulletproof as test shows. It is still preferrable to have a proper FRR fix and revert this change in the future.
How to verify it
Continuously issuing config reload and check BGP session status afterwards.

#### A picture of a cute animal (not mandatory but encouraged)
There's an odd crash that intermittently happens after the teamd container
exits, and a signal is raised to the main thread to exit. This thread (watching
teamd) continues execution because it's in a `while True`. The subsequent wait
call on the teamd container very likely returns immediately, and it calls
`is_warm_restart_enabled` and `is_fast_reboot_enabled`. In either of these
cases, sometimes, there is a crash in the transition from C code to Python code
(after the function gets executed). Python sees that this thread got a signal
to exit, because the main thread is exiting, and tells pthread to exit the
thread. However, during the stack unwinding, _something_ is telling the
unwinder to call `std::terminate`. The reason is unknown.
This then results in a python3 SIGABRT, and systemd then doesn't call the stop
script to actually stop the container (possibly because the main process exited
with a SIGABRT, so it's a hard crash). This means that the container doesn't
actually get stopped or restarted, resulting in an inconsistent state
afterwards.
The workaround appears to be that if we know the main thread needs to exit,
just return here, and don't continue execution. This at least tries to avoid it
from getting into the problematic code path. However, it's still feasible to
get a SIGABRT, depending on thread/process timings (i.e. teamd exits, signals
the main thread to exit, and then syncd exits, and syncd calls one of the two C
functions, potentially hitting the issue).

- Why I did it
interfaces-config service restarts networking service, during the restart loopback interface address is being removed and reassigned back, leaving loopback without an ipv4 address for a while.
On SONiC startup and config reload interfaces-config and bgp services start in parallel and sometimes

Multi-asic Docker instances are created behind Docker's default bridge
which doesn't allow talking to other Docker instances that are in the
host network (like database-chassis).
On linecards, we configure midplane interfaces to let per-asic docker
containers talk to CHASSIS_DB on the supervisor through internal chassis
network.
On the supervisor we don't need to use chassis internal network, but we
still need a similar setup in order to allow fabric containers to talk
to database-chassis
The timer execution may fail if triggered during a config reload
(when the sonic.target is stopped). This might happen in a rare
situation if config reload is executed after reboot in a small
time slot (for 0 to 30 seconds) before the tacacs-config timer
is triggered. To ensure that timer execution will be resumed after
a config reload the WantedBy section of the systemd service is updated
to describe relation to sonic.target.

It could happen that a container has already crashed but docker-wait-any

#### Why I did it
It is observed in some circumstances that the auto-restart mechanism does not work. Specifically for ```swss.service```, ```orchagent``` had crashed before ```docker-wait-any``` started in ```swss.sh```. This led ```docker-wait-any``` wait forever for ```swss``` to be in ```"Running"``` state and it results in:

Why I did it
On a supervisor card in a chassis, syncd/teamd/swss/lldp etc dockers are created for each Switch Fabric card. However, not all chassis would have all the switch fabric cards present. In this case, only dockers for Switch Fabrics present would be created.
The monit 'container_checker' fails in this scenario as it is expecting dockers for all Switch Fabrics (based on NUM_ASIC defined in asic.conf file).
Why I did:
In case of multi-asic platforms gbsyncd is not getting added to Feature Table of Host Config DB. Without this container_checker complains of not needed gbsyncd container's are running.
How I did:
Update Both Host and Namespace config db when gbsyncd docker is starting.
How I verify:
Verified on Multi-asic platforms.
Change `sxdkernel start` to `sxdkernel restart`. If `syncd` service crashes in `ExecStartPre` systemd will not call `ExecStop` and thus will not call `sxdkernel stop`. Use of `sxdkernel restart` is more robust in terms of guarantees to restore the system after unexpected crashes.

bgp should be a per-asic service, and runs for each namespace on
multi-asic platforms. However, putting bgp in MULTI_INST_DEPENDENT
causes swss to be restarted as well as bgp. this is causing issues after #11000
Issue: #11653
This fix:
removes bgp from dependents list
adds a conditional that either adds bgp, or bgp@$DEV to separate
between single and multi-asic platforms
When using trap on SIGTERM the script will not react to the SIGTERM signal sent while a child is executing.
I.e, the following script does not react on SIGTERM sent to it if it is
waiting for sleep to finish:
```
trap "echo Handled SIGTERM" 0 2 3 15
echo "Before sleep"
sleep inf
echo "After sleep"
```
Instead, trap only on EXIT which covers also a scenario with exit on
SIGINT, SIGTERM.

In arp_update, check for FAILED or INCOMPLETE kernel neighbor entries and manually ping them to try and resolve the neighbor
Signed-off-by: Lawrence Lee <lawlee@microsoft.com>
Why I did it
The initial value has to be present for the state machines to work. In active-standby dual-tor scenario, or any hardware mux scenario, the value will be updtaed eventually with a delay.
However, in active-active dual-tor scenario, there is no other mechanism to initialize the value and get state machines started.
So this script will have to write something at start up time.
For active-active dualtor, 'active' is a more preferred initial value, the state machine will switch the state to standby soon if
link prober found link not in good state.
How I did it
Update the script to always provide initial values.
How to verify it
Tested on active-active dual-tor testbed.

*Preventing ebtables rules to be applied on KVM image. The ebtables rules in SONiC are added to prevent ARP as well as L2 forwarding to be blocked in linux kernel since the hardware will take care of the actual L2 forward. However this is not the case with KVM where linux needs to forward even L2 packets
What I did:
Added bgp as a dependent of swss
Why I did it:
bgp container was not restarting on swss crash. When swss crashes, linkmgrd
doesn't initate a switchover because it cannot access the default route from
orchagent. Bringing down bgp with swss will isolate the ToR, causing linkmgrd
to initiate a switchover to the peer ToR avoiding significant packet loss.
How I did it:

* Ported Marvell armhf build on x86 for debian buster to use cross-compilation instead of qemu emulation
Current armhf Sonic build on amd64 host uses qemu emulation. Due to the
nature of the emulation it takes a very long time, about 22-24 hours to
complete the build. The change I did to reduce the building time by
porting Sonic armhf build on amd64 host for Marvell platform for debian
buster to use cross-compilation on arm64 host for armhf target. The
overall Sonic armhf building time using cross-compilation reduced to
about 6 hours.

How I did it
Add a flag require_global_dscp_to_tc_map to control whether to generate the PORT_QOS_MAP|global entry. The default value for require_global_dscp_to_tc_map is true. If the device type is storage backend, the value is changed to false. Then the PORT_QOS_MAP|global entry is not generated.
How to verify it
Update the current test_qos_dscp_remapping_render_template to cover storage backend.
Refactors the SONiC Installer to support greater flexibility in building for a given architecture and bootloader.
#### Why I did it
Currently the SONiC installer assumes that if a platform is ARM based that it uses the `uboot` bootloader and uses the `grub` bootloader otherwise. This is not a correct assumption to make as ARM is not strictly tied to uboot and x86 is not strictly tied to grub.
#### How I did it
To implement this I introduce the following changes:
* Remove the different arch folders from the `installer/` directory
* Merge the generic components of the ARM and x86 installer into `installer/installer.sh`
* Refactor x86 + grub specific functions into `installer/default_platform.conf`
* Modify installer to call `default_platform.conf` file and also call `platform/[platform]/patform.conf` file as well to override as needed
* Update references to the installer in the `build_image.sh` script
* Add `TARGET_BOOTLOADER` variable that is by default `uboot` for ARM devices and `grub` for x86 unless overridden in `platform/[platform]/rules.mk`
* Update bootloader logic in `build_debian.sh` to be based on `TARGET_BOOTLOADER` instead of `TARGET_ARCH` and to reference the grub package in a generic manner
#### How to verify it
This has been tested on a ARM test platform as well as on Mellanox amd64 switches as well to ensure there was no impact.

After PR Update qos config to clear queues for bounced back traffic #10176 , the DSCP_TO_TC_MAP and TC_TO_PG_MAP is updated when remapping is enable
DSCP_TO_TC_MAP
Before After Why do this change
"2" : "1" "2" : "2" Only change for leaf router to map DSCP 2 to TC 2 as TC 2 will be used for lossless TC
"6" : "1" "6" : "6" Only change for leaf router to map DSCP 6 to TC 6 as TC 6 will be used for lossless TC
TC_TO_PRIORITY_GROUP_MAP
Before After Why do this change
"2" : "0" "2" : "2" Only change for leaf router to map TC 2 to PG 2 as PG 2 will be used for lossless PG
"6" : "0" "6" : "6" Only change for leaf router to map TC 6 to PG 6 as PG 6 will be used for lossless PG
So, we have two new lossy PGs (2 and 6) for the T2 facing ports on T1, and two new lossless PGs (2 and 6) for the T0 facing port on T1.
However, there is no lossy PG profile for the T2 facing ports on T1. The lossless PGs for ports between T1 and T0 have been handled by buffermgrd .Therefore, We need to add lossy PG profiles for T2 facing ports on T1.
We don't have this issue on T0 because PG 2 and PG 6 are lossless PGs, and there is no lossy traffic mapped to PG 2 and PG 6
Map port level TC7 to PG0
Before the PCBB change, DSCP48 -> TC 6 -> PG 0.
After the PCBB change, DSCP48 -> TC 7 -> PG 7
Actually, we can map TC7 to PG0 to save a lossy PG.

Why I did it
Support to use symbol links in platform folder to reduce the image size.
The current solution is to copy each lazy installation targets (xxx.deb files) to each of the folders in the platform folder. The size will keep growing when more and more packages added in the platform folder. For cisco-8000 as an example, the size will be up to 2G, while most of them are duplicate packages in the platform folder.
How I did it
Create a new folder in platform/common, all the deb packages are copied to the folder, any other folders where use the packages are the symbol links to the common folder.
Why platform.tar?
We have implemented a patch for it, see #10775, but the problem is the the onie use really old unzip version, cannot support the symbol links.
The current solution is similar to the PR 10775, but make the platform folder into a tar package, which can be supported by onie. During the installation, the package.tar will be extracted to the original folder and removed.

- Why I did it
Recent change to delay PMON service in case of fast/warm reboot introduce an issue when restarting only SWSS service after fast/warm reboot for Nvidia platform.
Since the timer is triggered only when the system boot, in a scenario when the system is after a fast/warm reboot and the user restart SWSS service, as part of syncd.sh script, PMON service will stop but the timer will not start again.
- How I did it
On syncd.sh script, in case of fast/warm indication, check if pmon.timer is running.
If it is running it means we are at the first boot and continue normally.
If it is not running, meaning the service was restarted, start the timer to keep the system behavior consistent.

Run fast/warm reboot.

This reverts commit 15cf9b0d70.
Why I did it
Revert the PR #10775, for it has impact on onie installation.
It is caused by the symbol links not supported in some of the onie unzip.
We will enable after fixing the issue, see #10914
What/Why I did:
Issue1: By setting up of ipvlan interface in interface-config.sh we are not tolerant to failures. Reason being interface-config.service is one-shot and do not have restart capability.
Scenario: For example if let's say database service goes in fail state then interface-services also gets failed because of dependency check but later database service gets restart but interface service will remain in stuck state and the ipvlan interface nevers get created.
Solution: Moved all the logic in database service from interface-config service which looks more align logically also since the namespace is created here and all the network setting (sysctl) are happening here.With this if database starts we recreate the interface.
Issue 2: Use of IPVLAN vs MACVLAN
Currently we are using ipvlan mode. However above failure scenario is not handle correctly by ipvlan mode. Once the ipvlan interface is created and ip address assign to it and if we restart interface-config or database (new PR) service Linux Kernel gives error "Error: Address already assigned to an ipvlan device." based on this:https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/net/ipvlan/ipvlan_main.c#L978Reason being if we do not do cleanup of ip address assignment (need to be unique for IPVLAN) it remains in Kernel Database and never goes to free pool even though namespace is deleted.
Solution: Considering this hard dependency of unique ip macvlan mode is better for us and since everything is managed by Linux Kernel and no dependency for on user configured IP address.
Issue3: Namespace database Service do not check reachability to Supervisor Redis Chassis Server.
Currently there is no explicit check as we never do Redis PING from namespace to Supervisor Redis Chassis Server. With this check it's possible we will start database and all other docker even though there is no connectivity and will hit the error/failure late in cycle
Solution: Added explicit PING from namespace that will check this reachability.
Issue 4:flushdb give exception when trying to accces Chassis Server DB over Unix Sokcet.
Solution: Handle gracefully via try..except and log the message.
Why I did it
At present, there is no mechanism in an event driven model to know that the system is up with all the essential sonic services and also, all the docker apps are ready along with port ready status to start the network traffic. With the asynchronous architecture of SONiC, we will not be able to verify if the config has been applied all the way down to the HW. But we can get the closest up status of each app and arrive at the system readiness.
How I did it
A new python based system monitor tool is introduced under system-health framework to monitor all the essential system host services including docker wrapper services on an event based model and declare the system is ready. This framework gives provision for docker apps to notify its closest up status. CLIs are provided to fetch the current system status and also service running status and its app ready status along with failure reason if any.
How to verify it
"show system-health sysready-status" click CLI
Syslogs for system ready
Why I did it
To upgrade SSD firmware in initramfs while rebooting from SONiC to SONiC and during NOS to SONiC migration.
How I did it
New option 'ssd-upgrader-part’ is introduced in grub command line, to indicate the partition and its filesystem type in which the SSD firmware updater is present. ‘ssd-upgrader-part’ syntax is ssd-upgrader-part=<partition>,<filesystem type>. Example: ssd-upgrader-part=/dev/sda8,ext4
A new initramfs script ‘ssd-upgrade’ is included in init-premount and it invokes the SSD firmware updater (ssd-fw-upgrade) present in the partition indicated by the boot option 'ssd-upgrader-part'
How to verify it
In SONiC, the SSD firmware updater is copied to “/host/” directory.
Fast-reboot is to be initiated with the ‘-u’ option ([scripts/fast-reboot] Add option to include ssd-upgrader-part boot option with SONiC partition sonic-utilities#2150)
After reboot, while booting into SONiC the SSD firmware updater will be executed in initramfs.
Why I did it
The image size is too large, when there are multiple lazy packages and multiple platforms. It is not necessary to keep the lazy installation packages in multiple copies.
For cisco image, the image size will reduce from 3.5G to 1.7G.
How I did it
Use symbol links to only keep one package for each of the lazy package.
Make a new folder fsroot/platform/common
Copy the lazy packages into the folder.
When using a package in each of the platform, such as x86_64-grub, x86_64-8800_rp-r0, x86_64-8201_on-r0, etc, only make a symbol link to the package in the common folder.
