Andrew Tridgell 4b4f5ed1c0 HAL_PX4: support get_system_id() on PX4 2013-11-26 13:00:03 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 0b25ff0a16 HAL_PX4: added uartD 2013-11-23 19:29:22 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 24d1cf3bd6 HAL_PX4: don't check USB for data if not connected 2013-11-05 14:41:42 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 8dc6b758f3 HAL_PX4: switch to delay_microseconds_semaphore() for UART timer
this may prevent some timing jitter on the GPS UARTs
2013-11-05 14:41:24 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 5800c2a2c8 HAL_PX4: prevent excessive writes on startup from blocking
this could cause copter on PX4 to hang on startup
2013-10-28 16:12:44 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 622f0dcc1d HAL_PX4: prevent threads running before subsystems are initialised
this fixes a bug where the timer thread would hang waiting for the
console on startup. This caused the "hit enter" behaviour with recent
PX4 bugs, as AnalogIn tried to read from fd==0, which was a console
read
2013-10-26 18:12:35 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 34cde1a640 HAL_PX4: implement set_system_clock() 2013-10-24 14:22:48 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 1c091cbca5 HAL_PX4: fixed a scheduler bug that affects UART IO
we need to detect if we are in a timer task using a PID, not a
flag. This is the same type of bug I fixed last week, but now fixed
properly.

The bug could well be the "USB bug" that Craig has been chasing
2013-10-19 16:50:38 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell d973730b88 HAL_PX4: use hrt timer and semaphores to improve timing
this gives much more accurate microsecond delays, while also ensuring
we yield the CPU when possible
2013-10-14 08:29:30 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell e34cc6dd9a HAL_PX4: added some UART debugging
this may help to track down USB issues
2013-10-13 12:43:25 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 63bee0b2d8 HAL_PX4: disable checks for in_timerprocess
these are not valid in this form for the way the timer thread works on
PX4.
2013-10-11 16:06:35 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 67db1cedaa HAL_PX4: fixed delay_microseconds() on PX4
we could underflow and delay a very long time!
2013-10-08 17:31:15 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 7cab8cb3bb HAL_PX4: removed Console driver 2013-10-05 18:33:07 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell ad30f8effa HAL_PX4: try to reopen UARTs if safety switch is disarmed
this allows attaching to the USB port after power on

2013-09-19 16:23:40 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 2990359043 PX4: Implement accurate ratiometric voltage reading on Pixhawk
this uses the monitoring of the 5V rail to compensate for changes in
the 5V reference versus the 3.3V ADC reference. It reduces the noise
on ratiometric sensors by a factor of about 6x.
2013-09-13 10:48:57 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 3a3cecf5ff PX4: support getting servorail voltage from ORB 2013-09-12 16:28:06 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell fb56feb6b2 HAL_PX4: support all analog input pins, with scaling

2013-09-12 13:26:00 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell fa107bdb58 PX4: moved UART handling to its own thread
this prevents slow writes to the SD card from interfering with MAVLink
or GPS serial communication
2013-09-04 13:15:27 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 7082e0f8aa AP_HAL: added hold_in_bootloader parameter to scheduler->reboot() 2013-09-04 11:58:13 +10:00

2013-08-30 13:01:34 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 9b3c54fc39 PX4: ensure storage buffer is DMA aligned
this helps for boards which use DMA for FAT IO
2013-08-30 13:01:33 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 2340bb6220 PX4: use a minimum transmit buffer for UARTs of 512 bytes
this avoids writes stalling on the GPS port. We can't afford this
memory on APM2, but we can on PX4, and it means that while the GPS is
blocking at startup it doesn't cause any scheduler slips
2013-08-30 13:01:33 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell e5f19e314d PX4: systemreset() now takes a boolean argument
this chooses whether to stay in the bootloader

Andrew Tridgell a5b20b4dfc AP_HAL: removed scaling factor on analog sources
these are not use anymore, as voltage_average() is used instead
2013-05-13 15:29:42 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 589b8cdb58 AP_HAL: added voltage_average_ratiometric() call to AnalogIn
this is for ratiometric sensors such as the 3DR airspeed sensor and
the Maxbotix analog sonar
2013-05-13 15:12:43 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 172faeea26 HAL_PX4: moved rc.APM to new ROMFS directory 2013-05-10 06:16:54 +10:00

first 8 on IO board, next 4 on FMU outputs
2013-04-25 20:10:53 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell af7381e9e0 AP_HAL: added register_io_process()
this is used to register a low priority IO task. Used for file IO in
DataFlash_File.cpp
2013-04-17 21:33:50 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell d01d754ba8 HAL_PX4: if we have lost RC input then set channel 3 to 900
this allows failsafe to kick in

Where possible this should be auto-scaled against a known reference
voltage

Pat Hickey e0457f21de AP_HAL_PX4: fix off-by-one error in RCOutput channel sending 2013-02-23 15:04:17 -08:00
Andrew Tridgell c373429a6e HAL_PX4: fixed a buffer handling bug
BUF_SPACE() was badly buggy, which could lead to memory corruption
2013-02-20 18:15:56 +11:00

Andrew Tridgell 02b4ecc273 HAL_PX4: get RC input from PX4IO board
this allows us to support DSM and SBUS receivers
2013-01-27 12:52:14 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell d7409b6a25 HAL_PX4: startup in low priority to fix CLI
this ensures that tight sensor loops in setup() can run without
sleeping
2013-01-25 20:44:36 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 7359348e2c HAL_PX4: added support for /fs/microsd/APM/nostart
prevents APM startup
2013-01-25 20:44:36 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 8f2f4b1bc5 HAL_PX4: use write() to /dev/pwm_output for servo output

based IO firmware
2013-01-25 20:44:36 +11:00
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

this should handle EINTR gracefully
2013-01-24 15:04:57 +11:00
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
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
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
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
this lowers the average cost of reading bytes by a large amount, and
prevents the GPS driver from chewing lots of time.
2013-01-22 10:34:04 +11:00
