Generate PFC storm using PFC backpressure on Arista DCS-7060X6 devices #15594
Conversation
Add a pfc_gen script that generates storm by directly setting PFC backpressure status in hardware (using broadcom shell commands) and modify pfc_storm to use this new script if the port is connected to th5 MPC. Intended to upstream for MSFT.

Description of PR
Add a pfc_gen script for Arista DCS-7060X6 fanout devices to generate pfc pause frames by setting PFC backpressure status in hardware. Enable the storm generation to use this script on interfaces that are connected to Arista DCS-7060X6 fanout devices running EOS.
Summary:
Fixes # (issue)
Type of change
Back port request
Approach
What is the motivation for this PR?
Adds more reliable PFC storm generation for interfaces connected to Arista DCS-7060X6 fanout devices
How did you do it?
How did you verify/test it?
Ran the pfcwd tests on t1 switch with interfaces connected to Arista DCS-7060X6 device, ensured the new script was used and pfc storm was appropriately detected.
Any platform specific information?
Supported testbed topology if it's a new test case?
