Blink status led if there's no input in more than (2 * NUM_INPUT) ms. That's
useful to show the user that the program is working, but not receiving proper
input.
That code for serial configuration was not really setting TXSTA register, since
the selected bank is 2. Looking at the datasheet, it seems that we were
actually messing with a register named VRCON (full name "VOLTAGE REFERENCE
CONTROL REGISTER").
This is probably a leftover from a copy/paste, since the same is done (in the
right place) previously.
This patch adds the assembly source code for the PIC firmware responsible for
processing PWM input from the RC Receiver and pushing the values to the serial
output.
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.
Include board-specific files only when the board is used. Since these
should be exceptional cases, let the includer handle the ifdef instead
of putting ifdefs in every platform-specific header.
In the future we should evaluate whether the HAL for the board should
instantiate this.
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'.
We changed from ArduCopter to APM:Copter, breaking parts of the LogAnalyzer
This change has LogAnalyzer canonicalise its output to Ardu{Plane,Rover,Copter}
Also account for change in MODE message - ThrCrs has gone away
