FastSerial: added set_blocking_writes() interface
...
this allows us to put a serial port into non-blocking mode, so that
writes that don't fit in the transmit buffer are dropped. This will be
used in flight to prevent stray printf() calls from causing large time
delays in the code

Compass: added COMPASS_AUTODEC option
...
when this is 1 (which is the default), we will get the declination
automatically via the AP_Declination library
when it is 0 we will use the value configured by the user

AP_Declination: save some more memory by putting the declination keys in progmem
...
there was a comment saying this was too slow, but it actually costs
about 30 usec extra, which is trivial given the full auto declination
call costs 680 usec and its only called once per boot

AP_Declination: Update LUT based on the changes that I made in the LUT generation code. This LUT is the final version that has no truncation.

AP_Declination: Updated comments to reflect new LUT size.
2012-03-30 14:25:06 +11:00

AP_Declination: Removed trailing zero deltas as they have no impact on the final value and only take up extra bytes.
2012-03-30 14:21:58 +11:00

AP_Declination: Updated compressed lookup value table. Located 9 more failure points due to truncation on the packed LUT.
2012-03-30 14:21:58 +11:00
0178906389
AP_Declination: Found 7 of the 22 failure points and fixed them. The issue with those 7 was the way I originally packed the value array. The last delta values on some rows were getting truncated. The new number of failures is down to 15 - WIP.
2012-03-30 14:21:58 +11:00

AP_Declination: Updated test to run in 5 degree increments. Changed to only print failures and also print total pass vs total fail.

AP_Declination: Moved check for y index of zero to after the y index is properly transformed.
2012-03-30 14:21:58 +11:00
e99d26cfa3
AP_Declination: The exception signs unpacking logic was incorrect. I was shifting a 1 value left y%8 which would have needed a the signs to be packed right to left. My packed signs byte was packed left to right (left most being the 0 position) so I needed to reverse the shifting.
2012-03-30 14:21:58 +11:00
d9c9e0e608
AP_Declination: In order for the bitwise & operation to work, negative signs need to be represented by 1s instead of 0s. Changed so that negative signs are represented by a 1 in the packed signs array. Updated lookup logic to reflect this change.
2012-03-30 14:21:58 +11:00
8b1c383f97
AP_Declination: Updated packed exception signs array. I had the signs packed incorrectly.
2012-03-30 14:21:57 +11:00
c0813f8d62
AP_Declination: Changed test to run in increments of 10 degrees. 1 was too granular.
2012-03-30 14:21:57 +11:00

AP_Declination: Added original array to test sketch. Added loop to validate new compressed array against original in 1 degree steps.
2012-03-30 14:21:57 +11:00
63ce400f77
AP_Declination: Moved rows with large spikes in delta to their own unsigned exception rows. The signs are in a separate packed array.
2012-03-30 14:21:57 +11:00

AP_Declination: Implemented Delta Encoding and Run-Length Encoding. Added method to traverse the compressed array and return the lookup value based on the same lat_index/lon_index that was used before.

AP_Declination: Changed datatype to int16_t to support the -90 <-> 90 latitude range.
2012-03-30 14:21:57 +11:00
719636d00c
AP_Declination: Reduced the size of the lookup table to support -75 <-> 70 latitude range. This allows the datatype to remain int8_t.

AHRS: fixed error_yaw reporting with 2 MAVLink connections
...
when a user first connects with USB, and later switches to the
telemetry port without restarting we were getting zero for error_yaw
in the logs, as AHRS.get_error_yaw() was being called twice.
This ensures we give the last value after the counter is reset

Compass: implement noise resistant varient of offset learning

This adds a large amount of noise robustness to the compass offset
learning algorithm, at a cost of 120 bytes of memory. The changes are
based on a long discussion with Bill Premerlani.

Compass: implement Bills new offset nulling algorithm
...
this seems to work much better than the old algorithm, converging
faster and more accurately. Even better, it has no linkage to DCM, so
no possibility of nasty feedback effects

APM_RC - moved Force_Out0_Out1, Force_Out2_Out3 and Force_Out6_Out6 to APM_RC parent class because it's already implemented in the APM1 and APM2 child classes anyway

Math: moved matrix multiple operations to .cpp file
...
this means we only link this in once, rather than for every use of
matrix multiply, which saves us some flash space
We need to be careful not to put large pieces of code in template
headers, as if the operation is used a lot, it costs us a lot of code
space
