Optimize counter initialization by reducing the number of bulk counter poll calls and communication between swss(orchagent)/sairedis(syncd) during initialization.
Originally,
orchagent
notifiessyncd
to initialize the counter using an extended sairedis callSAI_REDIS_SWITCH_ATTR_FLEX_COUNTER
for each SAI object with the object ID as the key, which means the number of the extended sairedis calls is identical as the number of objects. It takes time to finish all the extended sairedis calls.Now, for counter groups that have many objects (e.g., port, PG, queues, etc),
orchagent
notifiessyncd
to initialize the counter using a single extend sairedis call with many objects' ID as the key (format:<key1>,<key2>,...<keyn>
). So, it takes much less time to initialize the counters because fewer extend sairedis calls are required.Details:
In sairedis, the bulk counter is supported for all counter groups except
Buffer Pool Counter
andDASH ENI counter
.In swss, bulk counter for the following counter groups
