This fixes the initialization for Linux boards using the PX4Flow module.
The problem is that after the conversion to use I2CDevice we now need to
use I2CDeviceManager, which is statically constructed after the vehicle
object.
So, if we try to call hal.i2c_mgr->get_device(), it will call the
get_device() method before the constructor is called and receive a
SIGSEGV:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

This commit adds support for OpticalFlow to MinnowBoardMax trying to
leave the OpticalFlow implementation as generic as it already is.
We had to add some format conversion and software crop to the cameras that
do not have this features.
Onboard Optical flow needs to have access to the ahrs to get
correct gyro values.
Therefore the constructor takes the ahrs as a param like it is done
for other classes that need to have access to these datas
num_errors should be used to detect bad bus transfers, not if we
actually read something. Since we are using i2c_sem->take_nonblocking()
failing here is more likely if the bus is shared.
We pass "sizeof(i2c_integral_frame)" to hal.i2c->readRegisters(). Since
we have a padding in i2c_integral_frame we actually read 3 bytes more
than we should. Add PACKED to the struct so this is fixed.
i2c_frame doesn't have a padding (or hole) so there isn't this problem,
but since it's also used to calculate the frame size, use PACKED there
too.
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.
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'.
This commit changes the way libraries headers are included in source files:
- If the header is in the same directory the source belongs to, so the
notation '#include ""' is used with the path relative to the directory
containing the source.
- If the header is outside the directory containing the source, then we use
the notation '#include <>' with the path relative to libraries folder.
Some of the advantages of such approach:
- Only one search path for libraries headers.
- OSs like Windows may have a better lookup time.
