Approach
What is the motivation for this PR?
The simulated y_cable driver needs configurations of the mux simulator to work.
Process xcvrd in pmon will try to load simulated y_cable driver if
/etc/sonic/mux_simulator.json is found on DUT.
How did you do it?
This change updated the test_pretest.py script to inject /etc/sonic/mux_simulator.json to DUT.
This change can co-exist with the code for injecting 'y_cable_simulator_client.py'
to DUT. Process xcvrd will decide which one to load.
How did you verify/test it?
Use
run_tests.sh
to run decap/test_decap.py on dual ToR testbed without skipping pretest.Any platform specific information?
Dual ToR only.
Supported testbed topology if it's a new test case?
