why do we change it so small?

ingress lossless profile should have no limit.

When threshold mode dynamic is configured, the above size value is ignored by the barefoot SDK. Buffers are carved out dynamically for the ingress buffers. Same comment applies for egress. So this size value should be ok.

the size here is the reserved buffer for the pg, for lossless traffic, it should be zero.

@zzhiyuan can you change size to 0 and give it a shot? I believe that should work with the SDE. You can reach out to me if you face any issues changing this value to 0

I've changed all the lossless buffer sizes to 0. Thanks

need high level description of why such change.

zzhiyuan · 2019-06-06T23:26:16Z

need high level description of why such change.

The previous buffer configuration was copied from a Broadcom platform. This configuration is for Barefoot, just like in: https://github.com/Azure/sonic-buildimage/blob/master/device/barefoot/x86_64-accton_wedge100bf_65x-r0/mavericks/buffers_defaults_t0.j2

the egress_lossless_profile does not seem to be correct.

NStetskovych-zz · 2019-06-18T13:01:22Z

@lguohan for t1 qos config is missed in the current image. What actually wrong with egress_lossless_profile?

the ingress lossless pool size is changed from 32M -> 4M, why such change. I do not understand the rationale behind this change.

we should avoid any egress packet drop for lossless traffic. previously configuration was to avoid any packet drop at egress. I do not think current configuration can guarantee no packet drop at egress for lossless traffic.

@NStetskovych , check my comments.

NStetskovych-zz · 2019-07-17T08:26:41Z

@lguohan is it ok to merge now?

zzhiyuan · 2019-07-23T22:06:21Z

@lguohan

Are there any additional problems with this PR?

Thanks

the dynamic threshold definating is alpha = 2^dynamic_th. If the dynamic_th is zero, then alpha is 1. it does not guarantee lossless behavior by SAI definition.

* Update sonic-utilities to master branch version sonic-utilities was (intentionally) pointing to a commit on a fork, since merging sonic-utilities's changes for Bookworm first onto the master branch would result in PR checker failures. Now that sonic-buildimage is on master branch and the Bookworm changes in sonic-utilities have been merged into master, sonic-utilties can now point to master. 17e77fe2 Revert "Run yang validation in unit test (#3025)" (#3055) 96dd5559 [dhcp_relay] Fix dhcp_relay counter display issue (#3054) 6dfeee69 [sflow][db_migrator] Egress Sflow support (#3020) 02a588b7 Don't collect /proc/sched_debug d7ec3251 Fix error about having a mutable default for field headers in dataclass 0ab3ab91 Fix test execution on Bookworm (#3041) ef8f6f83 Specify test dependencies under extra_requires 61c44e80 Update python packages 1e813105 [wol] Implement wol command line utility (#3048) 8ebc56a0 [sonic_installer]: Improve exception handling: introduce notes.
