- causes immediate timeout so all samples were dropped
- now the timeout is current and respects the time-since-last-comms/packet so we can ignore stale packets
- That contains our previous cherry-picked commits.
- That fixes the issue of builds not storing data in
`build/<board>/compile_commands.json` files (reported by #4580).
- reorder and document members.
- remove tentative of vertical alignement
- like was done for accumulated values, move the calibration
values to a struct
This converts MS56XX to use the thread started by SPI/I2C instead of
using the timer thread. This also fixes a possible starvation of the
main thread:
1) INS driver registers itself to be sampled on timer thread
2) MS56XX registers itself to be sampled on timer thread
3) Main thread waits for a sample from INS with
ins.wait_for_sample()
4) timer thread is waiting on update from MS56XX and consequently
the main thread is waiting on an I2C/SPI transfer
Besides this starvation there's another one due to reuse of the timer
lock in order to pump values from the timer thread to the main thread. A
call to the update() method when we have a sample available would need
to wait on any other driver holding the timer lock.
Now there's a lock just to pass the new values from the bus thread to
the main thread with a very tiny critical region, not waiting on any
bus transfers and/or syscalls.
We aren't going to use all the poller infra for now and we need it's
behavior a little bit different for what we are going to use:
- Do not use any "fair" time for each ready fd since we don't want
to set a timeout
- Allow to set the fd on Pollable after constructing it since we are
likely to embed Pollable inside other structs and just later be
able to open an fd.
- Let caller use the epoll flags directly - this is not in AP_HAL,
so there's no need to abstract them
Add system's polling infrastructure to be notified whenever a
file descriptor is ready to be read from or written to.
Adds a few classes:
* Poller, as an interface to epoll()
* Pollable, as an interface to a file descriptor
Replace the previous not-implemented interface with a set of new methods
that can be resonably implemented:
- register_periodic_callback() now receives a functor returning bool
to easily allow "oneshot" timers
- adjust_periodic_callback() allows the caller to change the timer
for a specific handle. This way drivers like MS5611 can adjust the
timer depending on its state machine: the time to sample
temperature is smaller than the time to get a pressure sample
- add unregister_callback(): since we have an opaque pointer, we
can't tell the user to just delete it in order to unregister the
callback
