Why I did it
There are scenarios that End-of-RIB comes from a part of the peers arrives after reconciliation. In such scenarios, if the route selection deferral timer has the default value of 360 seconds, FRR would not set up routes and all routes would be removed after reconciliation. This PR reduces the route selection deferral timer so that at least routes to parts of the peers get restored at the point of reconciliation.
Fix#7488
How I did it
Reduce route selection deferral timer for bgp graceful restart to 15 seconds.
- Create a script in the orchagent docker container which listens for these encapsulated packets which are trapped to CPU (indicating that they cannot be routed/no neighbor info exists for the inner packet). When such a packet is received, the script will issue a ping command to the packet's inner destination IP to start the neighbor learning process.
- This script is also resilient to portchannel status changes (i.e. interface going up or down). An interface going down does not affect traffic sniffing on interfaces which are still up. When an interface comes back up, we restart the sniffer to start capturing traffic on that interface again.

I'm updating the jinja2 template to support getting SNMP information from the redis configdb.
I'm using the format approved here:
https://github.com/Azure/SONiC/pull/718
This will pave the way for us to decrement using the snmp.yml in the future.
Right now we will still be using both the snmp.yml and configdb to get variable information in order to create the snmpd.conf via the sonic-cfggen tool.
**- How I did it**
I first updated the SNMP Schema in PR #718 to get that approved as a standardized format.
Then I verified I could add snmp configs to the configdb using this standard schema. Once the configs were added to the configdb then I updated the snmpd.conf.j2 file to support the updates via the configdb while still using the variables in the snmp.yml file in parallel. This way we will have backward compatibility until we can fully migrate to the configdb only.
By updating the snmpd.conf.j2 template and running the sonic-cfggen tool the snmpd.conf gets generated with using the values in both the configdb and snmp.yml file.

Render zero_profiles.j2 to zero_profiles.json for vendors that support reclaiming buffer
The zero profiles will be referenced in PR [Reclaim buffer] Reclaim unused buffers by applying zero buffer profiles #8768 on Mellanox platforms and there will be test cases to verify the behavior there.

Linkmgrd monitors link status, mux status, and link state. Has
the link becomes unhealthy, linkmgrd will trigger mux switchover
on a standby ToR ensuring uninterrupted service to servers/blades.
This PR is initial implementation of linkmgrd.
Also, docker-mux container hold packages related to maintaining and managing
mux cable. It currently runs linkmgrd binary that monitor and switches
the mux if needed.
This PR also introduces mux-container and starts linkmgrd as startup when
build is configured with INCLUDE_MUX=y
Edit: linkmgrd PR will follow.

During swss container startup, if ndppd starts up before/with vlanmgrd, ndppd will be pinned at nearly 100% CPU usage.
How I did it
Only start ndppd after vlanmgrd is running. Also, call ndppd directly instead of through bash for improved logging and to prevent orphaned processes.

Fix the check used to wait for interfaces to come up. The group name in
the supervisor config files has changed from isc-dhcp-relay to
dhcp-relay.
Also, in the wait script, wait 10 additional seconds after the vlans,
port channels, and any interfaces are up. This is because dhcrelay
listens on all interfaces (in addition to port channels and vlans), and
to ensure that it stays in a clean state during runtime, wait some extra
time to make sure that those interfaces are created as well.

Support to build armhf/arm64 platforms on arm based system without qemu simulator.
When building the armhf/arm64 on arm based system, it is not necessary to use qemu simulator.
How I did it
Build armhf on armhf system, or build arm64 on arm64 system, by default, qemu simulator will not be used.
When building armhf on arm64, and you have enabled armhf docker, then it will build images without simulator automatically. It is based how the docker service is run.
Docker base image change:
For amd64, change from debian:to amd64/debian:
For arm64, change from multiarch/debian-debootstrap:arm64- to arm64v8/debian:
For armhf, change from multiarch/debian-debootstrap:armhf- to arm32v7/debian:
See https://github.com/docker-library/official-images#architectures-other-than-amd64
The mapping relations:
arm32v6 --- armel
arm32v7 --- armhf
arm64v8 --- arm64
Docker image armhf deprecated info: https://hub.docker.com/r/armhf/debian, using arm32v7 instead.
Enable Autorestart of the daemons in PMON for unexpected exit
Remove the daemon list from the critical_process which prevent the PMON
from restarting when the individual daemon crashes.
#### Why I did it
The process of config generation (sonic-cfggen) fails, but the services continue to run with invalid config
#### How I did it
* add exit with error on errors in start.sh script (because supervisord relies on start.sh return code).
* fix jinja template. Jinja use common python expressions under the hood and `has_key` method was removed from dict in py3, so use check by `in` operator as it is supported by both py2 and py3.
#### How to verify it
* compile sonic with enabled iccp.
* add mclag config to CONFIG_DB.
```
'MC_LAG|1' => {
"local_ip": "10.0.0.2",
"peer_ip": "10.0.0.3",
"peer_link": "Ethernet8",
"mclag_interface": "Ethernet12"
}
* unmaks, enable and start swss and iccpd services in sonic.
* log in into the iccpd container and check the config file `/etc/iccpd/iccpd.conf`
* expected config:
```
mclag_id:1
local_ip:10.0.0.2
peer_ip:10.0.0.3
peer_link:Ethernet8
mclag_interface:Ethernet12
system_mac:YOUR_SYSTEM_MAC
#### Description for the changelog
Fixed initial iccpd startup configuration.
#### Why I did it
ethtool can be used to query and change settings such as speed, auto- negotiation and checksum offload on many network devices, especially Ethernet devices.
#### How I did it
add package extension to docker-platform-monitor/Dockerfile.j2
#### Why I did it
The libpci library provides portable access to configuration registers of devices connected to the PCI bus.

Why I did it
Currently we leveraged the Supervisor to monitor the running status of critical processes in each container and it is more reliable and flexible than doing the monitoring by Monit. So we removed the functionality of monitoring the critical processes by Monit.
How I did it
I removed the script process_checker and corresponding Monit configuration entries of critical processes.
How to verify it
I verified this on the device str-7260cx3-acs-1.
#### Why I did it
To avoid the following error
```
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/flush_unused_database", line 10, in <module>
if 'PONG' in output:
TypeError: a bytes-like object is required, not 'str'
```
`communicate` method returns the strings if streams were opened in text mode; otherwise, bytes.
In our case text arg in Popen is not true and that means that `communicate` return the bytes
#### How I did it
Set `text=True` to get strings instead of bytes
#### How to verify it
run `/usr/local/bin/flush_unused_database` inside database container
Why I did it
ndppd by default reads /proc/net/ipv6_route ever 30 seconds. Since T1s advertise so many routes to ToRs, this file is extremely large, and reading it causes ndppd's CPU usage to spike every 30 seconds
How I did it
Increase the delay for reading this file to the maximum possible value (max integer value), which will result in CPU spikes every ~24 days instead of every 30 seconds
How to verify it
Start ndppd with the new config file, confirm that no CPU spikes are seen except at startup

This PR aims to monitor the memory usage of streaming telemetry container and restart streaming telemetry container if memory usage is larger than the pre-defined threshold.
How I did it
I borrowed the system tool Monit to run a script memory_checker which will periodically check the memory usage of streaming telemetry container. If the memory usage of telemetry container is larger than the pre-defined threshold for 10 times during 20 cycles, then an alerting message will be written into syslog and at the same time Monit will run the script restart_service to restart the streaming telemetry container.
How to verify it
I verified this implementation on device str-7260cx3-acs-1.

1. Made the command next-hop-self force only applicable on back-end asic bgp. This is done so that BGPL iBGP session running on backend can send e-BGP learn nexthop. Back end asic FRR is able to recursively resolve the eBGP nexthop in its routing table since it knows about all the connected routes advertise from front end asic.
2. Made all front-end asic bgp use global loopback ip (Loopback0) as router id and back end asic bgp use Loopbacl4096 as ruter-id and originator id for Route-Reflector. This is done so that routes learnt by external peer do not see Loopback4096 as router id in show ip bgp <route-prerfix> output.
3. To handle above change need to pass Loopback4096 from BGP manager for jinja2 template generation. This was missing and this change/fix is needed for this also https://github.com/Azure/sonic-buildimage/blob/master/dockers/docker-fpm-frr/frr/bgpd/templates/dynamic/instance.conf.j2#L27
4. Enhancement to add mult_asic specific bgpd template generation unit test cases.

fuser support is required since new cisco hardware watchdog plugin uses them to check anyone else use's /dev/watchdogX resource. The actual validation happens in the platform code, but the package is required for pmon container. Currently the /dev/watchdogX is being used by cisco platform-monitor service. Cisco chassis level watchdog plugin uses "fuser" to claim the watchdog release from platform-monitor service.
#### Why I did it
MSN4700 A1/A0 used different sensor chip but keep the existing platform name *x86_64-mlnx_msn4700-r0*, this is a workaround to replace the sensor conf on MSN4700 A1/A0

Use a shell script to get the sensor conf path and copy that files to /etc/sensors.d/sensors.conf
