This is ready for review

This looks good in general. But I think we should wait vpp pipeline ready and verify vpp is able to compile and run.

i just made build from source on azp in sairedis just for test: #1486 if this will succeed, thatn we can just copy that to azpipeline on sonic-platform-vpp if noowne is working on that yet

seems like vpp build succeeded on azure pipeline: https://dev.azure.com/mssonic/build/_build/results?buildId=724631&view=logs&j=d755766c-c33e-5abe-260c-8d11f335b1a1&t=f2559076-9bdb-5064-4af2-83c32f011787 it took a little bit over 1 hour, first build fialed, nto sure why, but second one after restart succeeded :)

Hi @kcudnik , the sonic-swss repo PR validation now failed because vpp missing:

Preparing to unpack .../libsaivs-dev_1.0.0_amd64.deb ...
Unpacking libsaivs-dev (1.0.0) ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libsaivs:
libsaivs depends on libvppinfra; however:
Package libvppinfra is not installed.
libsaivs depends on vpp; however:
Package vpp is not installed.

ahh, i installed this here https://github.com/sonic-net/sonic-sairedis/blob/master/.azure-pipelines/build-swss-template.yml#L148

and the same could be done in swss repo, i can make PR to fix this, but we will have a bigger problem here, since now since sairedis is depending on vpp, we would need need to propagate that in all packages and docker up to buildimage to install vpp, even if it's not required, for example there is no need to install vpp in production images

i think this would need to be discussed and addressed, maybe solution would be to build 2 version of sairedis in pipeline with and without vpp and export artifacts of both ? definitely needs a discussion
