2013-01-23 16:54:44 +11:00
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.
2013-01-23 16:37:40 +11:00

2013-01-23 09:22:51 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 2a10727902 HAL_PX4: run timer thread as SCHED_FIFO

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
2013-01-22 21:22:01 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 546ed19ffc HAL_PX4: improved efficiency of serial writes
use buffer at a time writes when possible, and use O_NONBLOCKING to
avoid txspace()
2013-01-22 10:50:26 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 18cfd29f2f HAL_PX4: added a read buffer to the UART driver
