Why I did it There is an issue on the Arista PikeZ platform (using T3.X2: BCM56274) while running SONiC. If the 'syncd' container in SONiC is restarted, the expected behaviour is that syncd will automatically restart/recover; however it does not and always fails at create_switch due to BCM SDK kmod DMA operation cancellation getting stuck.

Reloading the BCM SDK kmods allows the switch init to continue properly. How I did it If BCM SDK kmods are loaded, unload and load them again on syncd docker start script. How to verify it Steps to reproduce: In SONiC, run 'docker ps' to see current running containers; 'syncd' should be present. Run 'docker stop syncd' Wait ~1 minute. Run 'docker ps' to see that syncd is missing. Check logs to see messages similar to the above. Signed-off-by: Michael Li <michael.li@broadcom.com>
