This is the only driver doing this, using the system_initializing() from
scheduler to log selectively. Remove the check together with removal of
unused wrapper methods to semaphore.
Most of AP_Progmem is already gone so we can stop including it in most
of the places. The only places that need it are the ones using
pgm_read_*() APIs.
In some cases the header needed to be added in the .cpp since it was
removed from the .h to reduce scope. In those cases the headers were
also reordered.
Now variables don't have to be declared with PROGMEM anymore, so remove
them. This was automated with:
git grep -l -z PROGMEM | xargs -0 sed -i 's/ PROGMEM / /g'
git grep -l -z PROGMEM | xargs -0 sed -i 's/PROGMEM//g'
The 2 commands were done so we don't leave behind spurious spaces.
AVR-specific places were not changed.
The PSTR is already define as a NOP for all supported platforms. It's
only needed for AVR so here we remove all the uses throughout the
codebase.
This was automated with a simple python script so it also converts
places which spans to multiple lines, removing the matching parentheses.
AVR-specific places were not changed.
For all supported boards the maximum number of instances is 3. The
number of HIL_COMPASSES was already defined as 2 instead of 3, so this
is left as before.
We don't support HAL_CPU_CLASS <= HAL_CPU_CLASS_16 anymore. This makes
COMPASS_MAX_INSTANCES and COMPASS_MAX_BACKEND constant for all supported
boards.
Instead of requiring every program to specify the HAL related modules,
let the build system do it (in practice everything we compiled depended
on HAL anyway). This allow including only the necessary files in the
compilation.
The switching between different AP_HAL was happening by giving different
definitions of AP_HAL_BOARD_DRIVER, and the programs would use it to
instantiate.
A program or library code would have to explicitly include (and depend)
on the concrete implementation of the HAL, even when using it only via
interface.
The proposed change move this dependency to be link time. There is a
AP_HAL::get_HAL() function that is used by the client code. Each
implementation of HAL provides its own definition of this function,
returning the appropriate concrete instance.
Since this replaces the job of AP_HAL_BOARD_DRIVER, the definition was
removed.
The static variables for PX4 and VRBRAIN were named differently to avoid
shadowing the extern symbol 'hal'.
offset parameter units are milligauss
User settable parameters should have a User category defined. Those that should never be set by a user should not have this.
The function rotate_field() can change the values axes and the function
correct_field() applies offsets (which are already in milligauss). Thus any
sensitivity adjustment must be done for two reasons:
(1) The offsets must be applied to the values already in milligauss;
(2) The factory sensitivity adjustment values are per axis, if any rotation
that switches axes is applied, that'll mess with the adjustment.
Experiments showed that before this patch the length of the mag field reported
quite different from the expected. After this patch, the same experiments
showed reasonable values.
This is part of the transition to make all mag field values be used in
milligauss. Additionally the value of _gain_multiple is adapted to the new way
we're using it and corrected accordingly to the datasheets.
