Refactor code, cleanup API handlers and message loop * Move rare.api to rare.bf_forwarder.api
* Remove lots of duplicate code (e.g. for IPv4/v6)
* Create API class
* Automate instantiation of API command instances
* Simplify message loop
* Remove rare.bf_gbl_env
* Use explicit imports where needed
* Use more systematic logging
* Keep all port-related parameters in the ports API module
bf_forwarder: clarify FEC, AN and flow-control settingsRemove non-existent "auto" FEC and flow-control modes, map "auto" AN
mode to PM_AN_DEFAULT (enables AN if the device supports it).
bf_forwarder: optimize discovery of front-panel portsThe original problem that internal tables could not be iterated over
appears to have been fixed a long time ago. The list of front-panel
ports is taken from the list of ports declared to be "external" in the
tf{1,2}.dev.device_configuration table and the port ids are translated
to connector/channel pairs through the $PORT_STR_INFO table.
bf-forwarder: support explicit lane configurtion for portsCommit 2120e7d of freertr passes the port speed parameter as a string
instead of an integer. We use the convention <speed>[:<lanes>] to
optionally pass the number of serdes lanes to use for a particular
speed setting. For example, Tofino2 supports 100G on either 4 or 2
lanes which can be selected with 100:4 and 100:2, respectively. Every
speed setting has a default number of lanes that is selec...

Add optimization for rare 555cae8 (SDE 9.7.4)
profile optimizer: move profile to prope directory on successThis fixes a bug in profile/rp.sh that erroneously performed this
action on optimization failure.
Automate profile optimizationThe new script profiles/optimize.sh automates profile optimization. It
clones the rare-nix repo to obtain the exact sets of compiler options
to use for optimization, then re-creates the Nix-based SDE environment
used by rare-nix and runs the optimizer in that context. This should
guarantee that all profiles will compile successfully when the Hydra
CI builds rare-nix once the new optimization is...
Add workaround for a problem affecting Tofino2Forwarding of transit packets appears to be non-functional on
Tofino2. A preliminary analysis indicates that the drop_ctl flag in
the ingress deparser metadata seems to get set inadvertently leading
to all transit packets to be dropped by the traffic manager. Packets
from/to the control plane are not affected. The workaround forces
drop_ctl to be re-assigned the value zero at the end of the ing...
Increase port range to scan for the stordis_bf2556x_1t to 64This platform uses ports in the range 1-57. Port 57 is used as the CPU
Eth port, where 57/0 is connecteded internally to 04:00.0 and 57/1 to
04:00.1. 57/2 and 57/3 are not connected.
Don't use the SAL to start bf_switch for the APS BSP 9.9.0The APS BSP for SDE 9.9.0 does not include the SAL (at least not the
beta version we currently use).
