By opening with O_CLOEXEC we make sure we don't leak the file descriptor
when we are exec'ing or calling out subprograms. Right now we currently
don't do it so there's no harm, but it's good practice in Linux to have
it.
Several return values in the constructor of the scheduler were ignored
before, while they should be respected.

This allows to terminate the flight stack nicely, ensuring it returns 0
so init system can check by return code if it terminated nicely or if it
was due to a crash.
This allows to wakeup the thread that is sleeping on Poller::poll()
[ which in our case is an epoll_wait() call ]. This is usually achieved
by using a special signal and using the pwait() variant of the sleeping
function (or using signalfd). However integrating the signal in the
Thread class is more complex than simply use the eventfd syscall which
can serve our needs.
Up until now we rely on Thread objects and variants thereof to be allocated
on heap or embedded in another object that's zero'ed on initialization.
However sometimes it's convenient to be able to use them on stack as
will be the case when writting unit tests.
Initialize all relevant fields to allow them to be used on stack. While
at it, prefer C++11 initialization on Poller since it's only setting the
default (invalid) value.

This patch replaces the 'old style' ringbuffer by the ByteBuffer class.

When the buffer wraps and we do it in 2 steps, we can't actually do the
second part if it fails or if we wrote less bytes than we intended,
otherwise we will corrupt the data being sent.

The constant passed to cflag is BOTHER, meaning the actual baud is set
in the other specific members. Don't define B* constants as they are
misleading here and this is why it doesn't work with e.g.
cfset[io]speed()... that function expect a B* constant which in Linux
is not the speed, but an index to an array with speeds.

it is specific to older versions of the ESC controller firmware
We currently check examples are buildable with waf which doesn't need

there is misleading since people try to build and realize the build is

We aren't going to use all the poller infra for now and we need it's
behavior a little bit different for what we are going to use:
- Do not use any "fair" time for each ready fd since we don't want
to set a timeout
- Allow to set the fd on Pollable after constructing it since we are
likely to embed Pollable inside other structs and just later be
able to open an fd.
- Let caller use the epoll flags directly - this is not in AP_HAL,
so there's no need to abstract them
Add system's polling infrastructure to be notified whenever a
file descriptor is ready to be read from or written to.
Adds a few classes:
* Poller, as an interface to epoll()
* Pollable, as an interface to a file descriptor

There's little point in having the Linux::AnalogIn just to implement and

In a case ArduPilot is launched as a background process without
detaching with *nohup* like this ./arduplane -C /dev/ttyAMA0 ConsoleDevice
is created and an attempt to read from it is made. This yields in a stopped
process. This is an endeavour to overcome this problem.
Using factory method maked it easier to grasp the lifetime of all object
that get created and destroyed. Instead of spanning this thoughout whole
source file we have it nicely encapsulated in this a little horrendeous
_parseDevicePath that is of course to improve more.
Otherwise we're going to leak memory without any need.
Before this fix we've created ConsoleDevice 4 times in case -A switch hadn't been supplied,
but we hadn't ever deleted those. Now there's no memory leak here.
Minor changes to follow coding style and improve readability:
- sort headers
- move struct definition to compilation unit rather than header
- Add braces to if, for, etc

Test code for integration with another thread to pull data from internal
perf counters. Since we are using the timer thread here, there's no
retry mechanism and we only print that data can be corrupted.
Instead of creating a new object Perf_Lttng copying the necessaries
fields, just make a tighter integration with the internal perf counters
and re-use the same fields.
The idea is to leave the internal perf enabled all the time, like it is
in PX4, and then allow the integration with lttng on top. Next step
would be to runtime enable/disable only the perf counters we are
interested in.
This also changes the structure so it's easy to allow another thread to
pull data from the Perf object. A rw lock protects from addition of new
counters and an atomic unsigned int allows other threads to do a
lockless copy of the data.
In order for this to work the allocation was changed to use a single
memory pool instead of returning a calloc'ed data for each perf counter.
Since most of our counters are of ' elapsed' type, don't bother using a
smaller struct for the 'count' type
If the RPi version detection fails, the standard version is now RPi2/3 instead of RPi1.
I think this is useful, because the RPi1 is not really supported (performance reasons).

Running the vehicles we check the stack size doesn't grow too much by
enabling the DEBUG_STACK in the scheduler. Even on 64bit boards the
stack is consistent around 4k. Just to be a little conservative, let it
be a little bit more that that: 256kB.
Since we have RT prio and we call mlock(), the memory for the stack of
each thread is locked in memory. This means we are effectively taking
that much memory. The default stack size varies per distro, but it's
common to have 8MB for 64 bit boards and 4MB for 32 bit boards. Here is
the output of ps -L -o 'comm,rtprio,rss $(pidof arducopter-quad)', showing the

We don't need all the comments in the array declaration and we can
inline its declaration in the function call. This makes it easier to
copy it to other places.
This bug led to issues for us so it may help others to resolve it.
Currently, the AP_HAL_Linux RCInput::read(uint16_t*,uint8_t) function
only returns the first x nonzero channels. Once it hits a channel that
is set to zero, it stops and all remaining channels are returned as
zero, even if they are set. This causes discrepancies between the raw RC
input sent to the GCS and the RC input that is actually used on the
vehicle.
The fixes this issue and makes it behave exactly as it does on the
PX4_HAL code. We ran into this issue when sending rc_override messages
in which there were some channels set to zero.
0-length arrays are supported in C but forbidden in C++. GCC allows it
but clang is more strict:

This allows us to re-use SPIDevice from SPIDeviceDriver (the
to-become-SPIDeviceProperties) while the drivers are
converted. We create a fake device by calling the temporary
SPIDeviceManager::get_device() method passing the descriptor. The
transfer and assert logic is still using the old code.
Now we can interoperate SPIDeviceDriver with the ones based in
SPIDevice since they are going to use the same semaphore and bus.
The way this code is structured is a little bit different from the
SPIDriver implementation:
- We only open the bus once, no matter how many devices we have in it
- There's a single transfer() method which uses half-duplex mode
instead of full duplex. The reason is that for all cases in the
codebase we are using half-duplex transfers using the full-duplex
API, i.e. a single SPI msg with both tx and rx buffers. This is
cumbersome because the buffers need to be of the same size and the
receive buffer using an offset of the same length as the actux data
being written. This means the high level APIs need to copy buffers
around.
If later we have uses for a real full duplex case it's just a matter
of adding another transfer_fullduplex() method or something like
this.
- The methods are implemented in the SPIDevice class instead of having
proxy methods to SPIDeviceManager as is the case of SPIDriver
Also from now on we refer to the SPIDriver objects as "descriptors"
because they have the parameters of each device in the
SPIDeviceManager::devices[] table. When SPIDeviceDriver is completely
replaced we can rename them to SPIDeviceProperties.
Save in the manager the number of devices so it can be used in other
places like the SPIDevice implementation. This is a temporary storage
while we migrate to SPIDevice.
While at it use protected rather than private.
This allows us to re-use I2CDevice from I2CDriver while the drivers are
converted. We create a fake device with addr = 0 for each I2CDriver but
we only use the register/unregister logic. The transfer logic still uses
the methods from I2CDriver in order to use the right address.
Now we can interoperate I2CDevice drivers with the ones base in
I2CDriver since they are going to use the same semaphore and bus.
The I2CDriver constructors were changed to re-use the logic in I2CDevice
(it uses a number rather than an string) and the semaphore doesn't live
outside anymore, its embedded in the fake I2CDevice, as well as the
bus's file descritor.
This is a similar function to what we have in I2CDriver, but it can
receive a nullptr to recv or send. It will create 2 i2c_msg structs to
send and receive data to/from the I2C slave.
These are very similar to their counterparts in I2CDriver. The changes
were:
- Don't use fixed buffer with PATH_MAX length: allocate the string
- Change the interface to use std::vector so we can simplify the
implementation
Use pthread's barrier so we don't keep waking up threads with possibly
higher priority during initialization phase.
This also synchronizes all of them to a single point. With the previous
approach it was possible (but unlikely) that a thread hadn't reach the
synchronization point when main thread signalize "system initialized".
