sleeping
2013-01-25 20:44:36 +11:00

2013-01-25 11:34:48 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell f9d43f4c3e HAL_PX4: prevent loop() overruns using hrt
this ensures if loop() takes more than 1 second, the main task gets
its priority dropped until loop() completes
2013-01-24 15:04:57 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 70227d5d93 HAL_PX4: added scheduler performance counters 2013-01-24 15:04:57 +11:00

Andrew Tridgell 6cf1d5e1ff HAL_PX4: handle IO errors on microsd
this should handle EINTR gracefully
2013-01-24 15:04:57 +11:00
Randy Mackay deafbf1f56 Copter: inav loiter comment changes
removed unused get_loiter_vel function
2013-01-24 11:14:38 +09:00

Andrew Tridgell 966b9b9b9c HAL_PX4: format panic messages with a newline 2013-01-23 16:54:44 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell c9799fb2b7 HAL_PX4: writing more than 512 bytes at a time can cause IO errors
the vfat fs in NuttX is really very picky!
2013-01-23 16:54:44 +11:00
Randy Mackay 68fc9ac1d8 Copter: add "f" to end of float constants
This is a small performance improvement for the px4
2013-01-23 14:51:37 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 952df2fced HAL_PX4: new buffered storeage driver for microsd cards
this does all IO in the timer thread, avoids writes that don't change
data, and does all writes in multiples of 128 byte chunks. This should
be about as friendly to SD cards as we can get.

Andrew Tridgell 47cc247046 Copter: limit number of bytes read per GCS check 2013-01-23 09:34:54 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell f72b532405 HAL_PX4: ensure all writes go via buffers
this prevents output corruption by direct fd writes
2013-01-23 09:22:51 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 2a10727902 HAL_PX4: run timer thread as SCHED_FIFO
this ensures it never yields to the main thread, which would break our
locking assumptions
2013-01-23 09:21:50 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 930e79a9e1 HAL_PX4: fixed rcin->valid() for RC override input 2013-01-23 07:57:59 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 06e63d3167 HAL_PX4: use pthread_yield() in main loop
this lowers the latency of the main loop somewhat
2013-01-23 07:36:13 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 6e8501603c HAL_PX4: avoid RCOutput ioctl unless values change
this lowers latency somewhat
2013-01-23 07:29:59 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 89cb3fbd61 HAL_PX4: fixed blocking IO in UART driver 2013-01-22 21:52:21 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 6ffa18fa61 HAL_PX4: rewrite UART driver to be much more efficient
this does the IO in the timer thread, and uses buffers in the main
task to avoid system call costs in the flight code.

The cost of PX4 read and write system calls is quite high - about 10
to 15 usec. We can't afford to pay that per byte
