Reducing Boot Time in SONiC by Replacing Process manager
What we did:
Replaced the current process manager (e.g.,
supervisord
) in SONiC with a more efficient alternative Runit .Why we did it:
In order to improve startup speed, this design focuses on optimizing service initialization by replacing the existing process manager with a higher-performance alternative. This is particularly crucial for switches leveraging the ASIC's internal CPU to run SONiC.
Support added:
Replaced Supervisord process manager with Runit which monitors all processes as supervisord
