Upgrade FRR to latest version for next release of SONiC #15295

Open StormLiangMS opened 1 year ago

StormLiangMS commented 1 year ago

Description

Current FRR version on master is 8.2. In order to support fib suppression feature, ported many code from 8.4, it would increase the efforts to maintain this patch. We should upgrade the FRR version of SONiC to latest one for SONiC master other than porting new feature to old branch.

Steps to reproduce the issue:

1. 2. 3.
