berlin switch 0 not transmitting packets from host to SPs

Inizia con le statistiche della rete di gestione per la porta VSC7448-to-Tofino ed esegui lo script fornito ./xcvrtrace.d su dendrite. Confronta le richieste trasmesse con le risposte SP mancanti e lo stato dell’interfaccia riportato. Il lavoro è completato quando il percorso dei pacchetti dall’host all’SP è stato identificato e corretto, così che le risposte SP ritornino e dendrite possa terminare l’avvio.

This morning on berlin, I was trying to test upgrade on Berlin and ran into an issue where the switch zone on scrimlet14 apparently couldn't talk to any SPs, which prevented dendrite from starting up. I believe the sequence of events was:

• I saw that the sidecar0 SP (BRM23230003) was running an image without a VERS in its caboose
• I manually updated it to version 1.0.43 via pilot
• I issued a pilot sp cycle BRM23230003 (this was wrong, see the next couple steps)
• I issued a pilot sp cycle BRM42220023 to reboot scrimlet14
• After scrimlet14 came back, the switch zone had no connectivity. I realized I should have issued a reset of the sidecar to get it to take the update, not a cycle, but now I'm not sure whether the issue here was that or whether it was already in the wedged state (the subject of this issue).
• I issued an SP reset to the sidecar.
• I pilot sp cycle'd scrimlet14 again.

Once scrimlet14 came back, its switch zone still appears to be DOA. It has a subset of the expected interfaces:

but:

• MGS hasn't been able to talk to any SPs
• dendrite is stuck starting up, emitting these errors every few seconds:

15:24:12.821Z ERRO dpd: failed to send message within the retry limit
    limit = 3
    task = io
    unit = transceiver-controller
15:24:12.821Z ERRO dpd: failed to fetch MAC addresses from SP
    reason = MaxRetries(3)

@mkeeter and @Aaron-Hartwig had previously encountered this same issue and had some extra debugging things to look at. From the other scrimlet or from castle, we can ask about the management network stats for the port between the VSC7448 and the Tofino. It shows that the SP is transmitting, but has received nothing:

PortStatus(Ok(PortStatus { port: 49, cfg: PortConfig { mode: BaseKr, dev: (Dev10g, 0), serdes: (Serdes10g, 0) }, link_status: Up, phy_status: None, counters: PortCounters { rx: PacketCount { multicast: 0, unicast: 0, broadcast: 0 }, tx: PacketCount { multicast: 19896, unicast: 0, broadcast: 0 }, link_down_sticky: true, phy_link_down_sticky: false } }))

@bnaecker had provided this dtrace script to watch dendrite traffic:

#!/usr/sbin/dtrace -Zqs

xcvr_ctl$target:::message-sent
{
    peer = json(copyinstr(arg0), "ok");
    header = json(copyinstr(arg1), "ok");
    msg = json(copyinstr(arg2), "ok");
    printf("Sent message to %s\n", peer);
    printf("  header: %s\n", header);
    printf("  msg: %s\n", msg);
}

xcvr_ctl$target:::message-received
{
    peer = json(copyinstr(arg0), "ok");
    header = json(copyinstr(arg1), "ok");
    msg = json(copyinstr(arg2), "ok");
    body = json(msg, "body");
    printf("Recv message from %s\n", peer);
    printf("  header: %s\n", header);
    printf("  msg: %s\n", msg);
}

Running it shows dendrite making requests but getting no responses:
