sairedis builds:

The SAI Redis provides a SAI redis service built on top of redis database. It contains two major components:

1. SAI library that puts SAI objects into the redis database.
2. syncd that takes the SAI objects and puts them into the ASIC.

Before installing, add key and package sources:

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver apt-mo.trafficmanager.net --recv-keys 417A0893echo 'deb http://apt-mo.trafficmanager.net/repos/sonic/ trusty main' | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sonic.listsudo apt-get update

Install dependencies:

sudo apt-get install redis-server -t trustysudo apt-get install libhiredis0.13 -t trusty

Install building dependencies:

sudo apt-get install libtool autoconf dh-exec

There are a few different ways you can install sairedis.

For your convenience, you can install prepared packages on Debian Jessie:

sudo apt-get install libsairedis syncd

Checkout the source:git clone https://github.com/sonic-net/sonic-sairedis.git and install it yourself.

You will also need SAI submodule:git submodule update --init --recursive

Get SAI header files into /usr/include/sai. Put the SAI header files that you use to compilelibsairedis into /usr/include/sai

Get ASIC SDK and SAI packages from your ASIC vendor and install them.

Install prerequisite packages:

sudo apt-get install libswsscommon libswsscommon-dev libhiredis-dev libzmq3-dev libpython-dev

Note: libswsscommon-dev requires libnl-3-200-dev, libnl-route-3-200-dev and libnl-nf-3-200-dev version >= 3.5.0. If these are not available via apt repositories, you can get them from the latestsonic-buildimage build.

Install SAI dependencies:

sudo apt-get install doxygen graphviz aspell

You can compile and install from source using:

./autogen.sh./configuremake && sudo make install

You can also build a debian package using:

./autogen.shfakeroot debian/rules binary

If you do not have libsai, you can build a debian package using:

./autogen.shfakeroot debian/rules binary-syncd-vs

All contributors must sign anIndividual Contributor License Agreement (ICLA) before contributions can be accepted. This process is managed by theLinux Foundation - EasyCLA and automatedvia a GitHub bot. If the contributor has not yet signed a CLA, the bot will create a comment on the pull request containing a link to electronically sign the CLA.

We're following basic GitHub Flow. If you have no idea what we're talking about, check outGitHub's official guide. Note that merge is only performed by the repository maintainer.

Guide for performing commits:

• Isolate each commit to one component/bugfix/issue/feature
• Use a standard commit message format:

[component/folder touched]: Description intent of your changes[List of changes]Signed-off-by: Your Name your@email.com

For example:

swss-common: Stabilize the ConsumerTable* Fixing autoreconf* Fixing unit-tests by adding checkers and initialize the DB before start* Adding the ability to select from multiple channels* Health-Monitor - The idea of the patch is that if something went wrong with the notification channel,  we will have the option to know about it (Query the LLEN table length).  Signed-off-by: user@dev.null
