Why I did it
test_sai_qos failed because of the following error:
"stderr_lines": [
"Traceback (most recent call last):",
" File \"/usr/bin/ptf\", line 522, in <module>",
" test_modules = load_test_modules(config)",
" File \"/usr/bin/ptf\", line 413, in load_test_modules",
" mod = imp.load_module(modname, *imp.find_module(modname, [root]))",
" File \"saitests/switch.py\", line 19, in <module>",
" import switch_sai_thrift",
"ImportError: No module named switch_sai_thrift"
],
It's because test_sai_qos runs ptf script which imports switch_sai_thrift, switch_sai_thrift is installed from python-saithrift_0.9.4_amd64.deb.
For master image, the deb file is for python3, but ptf only has virtual python3 environment, that's why we add --system-site-packages to allow virtual env to access system site-packeges.
Add thrift package in docker ptf virtual python3 env, because currently env-python3 doesn't have thrift module which is needed in switch_sai_thrift.
How I did it
Enable --system-site-packages for virtual py3 env in ptf docker and install thrift for test_qos_sai
How to verify it
load and login ptf conatiner
dpkg - i python-saithrift_0.9.4_amd64.deb
source /root/env-python3/bin/activate
python
import switch_sai_thrift.switch_sai_rpc
