Why I did it
Running SONiC releases past 202012 has become really challenging on system with small storage devices (4GB).
Some of these devices can also be limited by only having 4GB of RAM which complicates mitigations.
The main contributor to these issues is the SONiC image growth.
Being able to reduce it by some decent amount should allow these systems to run SONiC longer.
It would also reduce some impacts related to space savings mitigations.

Microsoft ADO (number only):
How I did it
Add a build option to reduce the image size.
The image reduction process is affecting the builds in 2 ways:
change some packages that are installed in the rootfs
apply a rootfs reduction script
The script itself will perform a few steps:
remove file duplication by leveraging hardlinks
under /usr/share/sonic since the symlinks under the device folder are lost during the build.
under /var/lib/docker since the files there will only be mounted ro
remove some extra files (man, docs, licenses, ...)
some image specific space reduction (only for aboot images currently)
The script can later be improved but for now it's reducing the rootfs size by ~30%.
How to verify it
Compare the size of an image with this option enabled and this option enabled.
Expect the fully extracted content to be ~30% less.

This is a backport of #16729

#### Why I did it
Fix issue #16533 , telemetry service exit in master and 202305 branches due to no telemetry configs in redis DB.
#### How I did it
Enable default config if no TELEMETRY configs from redis DB.
#### How to verify it
After the fix, telemetry service would work with the following two scenarios:
1. With TELEMETRY config in redis DB, load service configs from DB.
2. No TELEMETRY config in redis DB, use default service configs.

Why I did it
Enabling kdump by default for cisco-8000 by setting crashkernel cmdline arg in device installer.conf.
After bootup, sonic-kdump-config wipes crashkernel arg from /host/grub/grub.cfg, and resets USE_KDUMP in /etc/default/kdump-tools, so kdump will not be enabled on subsequent reboot.
How I did it
Setting kdump enable config as part of init_cfg.json for cisco-8000 platforms.
How to verify it
Install SONiC image with kdump enabled by default (device/hwsku/installer.conf), then reboot.
Kdump config should persist on subsequent reboots and kdump loaded during bootup

0025-bgpd-Use-treat-as-withdraw-for-tunnel-encapsulation-.patch FRRouting/frr@8a4a88c CVE-2023-38802
Why I did it
Networking devices need to be responsive. Such responsiveness is harmed when the CPU change state.
There is a latency penalty when a CPU is idle (e.g C2) and need to exit this state to come back to C1 state.
To prevent this from happening the CPU should be forced to remain in C1 state.
How I did it
Generalize the cstate forcing to C1 to all Arista products.
This is done by adding processor.max_cstate=1 to the kernel cmdline for all CPUs.
Additionally Intel CPUs also need intel_idle.max_cstate=0 to fallback to the acpi_idle driver.
How to verify it
Check that processor.max_cstate=1 is present on the cmdline for AMD CPUs
Check that both processor.max_cstate=1 and intel_idle.max_cstate=0 are present on the cmdline for Intel CPUs
On some products from this line one of the management NIC might be unpopulated.
On such products this leads to errors from pcied and pcie-check.sh
How I did it
Remove this PCIe device from pcie.yaml
How to verify it
Run pcieutil check on the 2 hardware variants and validate that it passes.
Restart pcied and make sure that there is no more error logs in the syslog.

How I did it
### Why I did it
When FRR is built with Cache enabled, the build failed with the following error logs
```

#### How I did it
Currently symlinks are excluded in hardcoded fashion. With FRR upgrades new symlinks might get introduced. To overcome it modified the way in which symlinks are excluded by finding symlinks using find command

SONiC service determine-reboot-cause might run before driver creating reset cause files. In that case, the reset cause will be "Unknown". This PR introduces a wait mechanism to wait for reset cause sysfs files ready.

/run/hw-management/config/reset_attr_ready is the file to indicate all reset cause files are ready. In chassis.get_reboot_cause function, it waits /run/hw-management/config/reset_attr_ready for up to 45 seconds.
