To limit IO and space usage on the flash device the boot0 script makes sure the SWI is in memory.
Because SONiC maps /tmp on the flash, some logic is required to make sure of it.
However it is possible for some provisioning mechanism to already download the swi in a memory file system.
This case was not handled properly by the boot0 script.
It now detect if the image is on a tmpfs or a ramfs and keep it there if that is the case.
The cleanup method has been updated accordingly and will only cleanup
the mount path if it's below /tmp/ as to not affect user mounted paths.
- How I did it
Check the filesystem on which the SWI pointed by swipath lies.
If this filesystem is a ramfs or a tmpfs the move_swi_to_tmpfs becomes a no-op.
Made sure the cleanup logic would not behave unexpectedly.
- How to verify it
In SONiC:
Download the swi under /tmp and makes sure it gets moved to /tmp/tmp-swi which gets mounted for that purpose.
Make sure /tmp/tmp-swi gets unmounted once the install process is done.
Create a new mountpoint under /ram using either ramfs or tmpfs and download the swi there.
Install the swi using sonic-installer and makes sure the image doesn't get moved by looking at the logs.
- Enhance eeprom parsing robustness on corrupted fields
- Add chassis provisioning service
- Disable CPU sleep state on some systems
- Complete refactor for FanSlots
- Fix module unload while still in use
Current support for the 7060PX4-32 and 7060DX4 was broken.
With this change, ports are now linking fine.

* Add secureboot support in boot0
* Initramfs changes for secureboot on Aboot devices
* Do not compress squashfs and gz in fs.zip
It doesn't make much sense to do so since these files are already
compressed.
Also not compressing the squashfs has the advantage of making it
mountable via a loop device.
* Add loopoffset parameter to initramfs-tools
* Support rw files allowlist for Sonic Secure Boot
* Improve the performance
* fix bug
* Move the config description into a md file
* Change to use a simple way to remove the blank line
* Support chmod a-x in rw folder
* Change function name
* Change some unnecessary words
Fix the issue of incorrectly skipping the convertfs hook when fast-reboot from EOS, by adding an extra kernel cmdline param "prev_os" to differentiate fast-reboot from EOS and from SONiC.
This is because we still do disk conversion for fast reboot from eos to sonic, like format the disk.
* Update arista driver submodule
* Add support for 7260CX3-64E in boot0
* Refactor boot0 platform specific definition
Make it easier to manage new sku
* Add support for 7050CX3-32S in boot0
Just contains the required boot0 information
* Add basic plugin support for DCS-7050CX3-32S
* Add port config for Arista-7050CX3-32S-C32

when device disk is small, do not unzip dockerfs.tar.gz on disk.
keep the tar file on the disk, unzip to tmpfs in the initrd phase.

* Add boot0 support for the 7280CR3
* Add platform and plugins for 7280CR3
* Add port config for 7280CR3
* Add platform_reboot for 7280CR3
* Add support for 7280CR3-32D4 based on the 7280CR3-32P4
* Update arista driver submodules
- Introduce new 7280CR3-32P4
- Improve to the led plugin for OSFP
* Fix showing systemd shutdown sequence when verbose is set
* Fix creation of kernel-cmdline file
Sometimes boot0 prints error
"mv: can't preserve ownership of '/mnt/flash/image-arsonic.xxxx/kernel-cmdline': Operation not permitted"
* Improve flash space usage during installation
Some older systems only have 2GB of flash available. Installing a second
image on these can prove to be challenging.
The new installation process moves the installer swi to memory in order
to avoid free up space from the flash before uncompressing it there.
It removes all the flash space usage spike and also improves the IO
since the installation is no more reading and writting to the flash at
the same time.
* Add support of 7060CX-32S-SSD
* 7260CX3: use inventory powerCycle procedures
* 7050QX-32S: use inventory powerCycle procedures
* 7050QX-32: use inventory powerCycle procedures
* platform: arista: add common platform_reboot
Replace platform_reboot by a link to new common for devices already
using a similar script.
* 7060CX-32S: use inventory powerCycle procedures
* Install python smbus in pmon
Some platform plugin need the python smbus library to perform some actions.
This installs the dependency.
* Update arista drivers submodule
* Ignore the possible timestamp warning in tar extraction
* Add verbosity toggle to boot0
Console logging is slow because of the 9600 baud rate.
Some time can be saved by decreasing the console verbosity.
* Add hook mechanism in boot0.
Support additional features in boot0 via hooks.
Hooks are unpacked and executed at post-install or pre-exec time.
* Fix 7170 sensors.conf file
Fix critical temperature settings for MAX6658 sensors
* Fix the random swap of storage devices
For arista 7050 switches running with linux 4.9, it is likely the device
name of flash drive (/dev/sda) and usb (/dev/sdb) randomly swap in kernel
booting, depending on which one is ready first. It breaks the expectation
that flash will be mounted as root by setting root=/dev/sda1. This patch
will correct ROOT to flash device refering to the path under block_flash.
* Fix 7170 fancontrol
* Do not remove aquota.user file in boot0
This file is a filesystem protected file used by EOS.
It can be simply removed and will make the SONiC installation failed if
not skipped.
Currently setting the next boot image is the same as setting a default
image.
With this change SWI_DEFAULT= will be considered the default image and
SWI= the next image.
When executing the boot0 SWI= will be overriden by SWI_DEFAULT= if it
exists and create in with the value of SWI= otherwise.
On overlay filesystem the name of the mountpoint will also match in the
mount command for overlayfs as upperdir=
To prevent detecting the wrong partition we now look for space before.
This ensure that we match mountpoint and not devices in df and mount
outputs.
Now properly differenciate the image installation and the kexec
operations. This is useful for fast-reboot operations.
Minor updates include
- better command line management
- using partition UUID in the command line

Miscellaneous improvements
* Fix index column for Arista-7260CX3-D108C8
* Fix flash permissions for Arista platforms
The ext4 flash uses acl to properly handle permissions in EOS.
Aboot isn't built with this support and therefore can't be used
to set the flash permissions. It has to be deferred in sonic initrd.

- Refactor of the whole script for readability purpose
- Now detect the root= partition automatically
- Allow more parameters to be passed to the cmdline using
/mnt/flash/kernel-params
- /host/machine.conf file will have to be generated at a later stage
since Aboot doesn't have enough information about the platform here
