•	Saidump for DNX-SAI sonic-net#13561

Solution and modification:
To use the redis-db SAVE option to save the snapshot of DB each time and recover later, instead of looping through each entry in the table and saving it.

(1) Updated sonic-buildimage/build_debian.sh, to install Python library rdbtools into the host.
(2) Updated sonic-buildimage/src/sonic-sairedis/saidump/saidump.cpp, add a new option -r, which updates the rdbtools's output-JSON files' format.
(3) Add a new script file: files/scripts/saidump.sh, to do the below steps
  For each ASIC0, such as ASIC0,

  1. Save the Redis data.
  sudo sonic-db-cli -n asic$1 SAVE > /dev/null

  2. Move dump files to /var/run/redisX/
  docker exec database$1 sh -c "mv /var/lib/redis/dump.rdb /var/run/redis$1/"

  3. Run rdb command to convert the dump files into JSON files
  sudo python /usr/local/bin/rdb --command json  /var/run/redis$1/dump.rdb | sudo tee /var/run/redis$1/dump.json > /dev/null

  4. Run saidump -r to update the JSON files' format as same as the saidump before. Then we can get the saidump result in standard output.
  docker exec syncd$1 sh -c "saidump -r /var/run/redis$1/dump.json"

  5. clear
  sudo rm -f /var/run/redis$1/dump.rdb
  sudo rm -f /var/run/redis$1/dump.json

(4) Update sonic-buildimage/src/sonic-utilities/scripts/generate_dump, replace saidump with saidump.sh

Install rdbtools into syncd docker and add saidump.sh into host.

• Saidump for DNX-SAI sonic-net#13561

Solution and modification:
To use the Redis-db SAVE option to save the snapshot of DB each time and recover later, instead of looping through each entry in the table and saving it.

(1) Updated platform/broadcom/docker-syncd-brcm-dnx/Dockerfile.j2, install Python library rdbtools into the syncd containter.
(2) Updated sonic-buildimage/src/sonic-sairedis/saidump/saidump.cpp, add a new option -r, which updates the rdbtools's output-JSON files' format.
(3) Updated sonic-buildimage/build_debian.sh, to add a new script file: files/scripts/saidump.sh into the host. This shell file does the below steps:
  For each ASIC0, such as ASIC0,

  1. Save the Redis data.
  sudo sonic-db-cli -n asic$1 SAVE > /dev/null

  2. Move dump files to /var/run/redisX/
  docker exec database$1 sh -c "mv /var/lib/redis/dump.rdb /var/run/redis$1/"

  3. Run rdb command to convert the dump files into JSON files
  docker exec syncd$1 sh -c "rdb --command json /var/run/redis$1/dump.rdb | tee /var/run/redis$1/dump.json > /dev/null"

  4. Run saidump -r to update the JSON files' format as same as the saidump before. Then we can get the saidump result in standard output.
  docker exec syncd$1 sh -c "saidump -r /var/run/redis$1/dump.json -m 100"

  5. clear
  sudo rm -f /var/run/redis$1/dump.rdb
  sudo rm -f /var/run/redis$1/dump.json

(4) Update sonic-buildimage/src/sonic-utilities/scripts/generate_dump, to check the asic db size and if it is larger than xxx entries, then do with REDIS SAVE, otherwise, to do with old method: looping through each entry of Redis DB.

To add the rdbtools into base docker.
Remove sudo in saidump.sh

To add the rdbtools into base docker.
Move saidump.sh from host to syncd docker container.

To move saidump.sh from this repo to sairedis repo.
