Since uORB is split into kernel and userspace parts, it is no longer possible to just
link uORB into px4_platform, which is used in both kernel and user side.

This is more logical place for the "backend" implementation than
directly under platform.
This also allows making other implementations as "real" drivers, as well as proper configuration via Kconfigs

- sending protocol
- uorb event message & template methods for argument packing
- libevents submodule to send common events and handle json files
- cmake maintains a list of all (PX4) source files for the current build
(PX4 modules + libs), which is used to extract event metadata and
generate a json file
BOARD_INDICATE_ARMED_STATE was only set during arming, so an external
component might have reset the board during param save, leading to param
loss.
This extends the API to trigger the arming state also while the shutdown
lock is taken.
Chip-select and SPI initialization uses the new config, whereas the drivers
still use the existing defines.
The configuration in board_config.h can be removed after all drivers are
updated.
Script to update include paths:
for i in $(grep -rl 'include <px4_work_queue' src platforms); do sed -i 's/#include <px4_work_queue/#include <px4_platform_common\/px4_work_queue/' $i; done
The threads running commands for clients through the Posix daemon used
to write to a char buffer through snprintf (etc.) which was then written
directly to the file descriptor, whereas in the other case printf
(etc.) was used to write to stdout (FILE*). Both versions used some
macro's and repeated code to have the same output.
This change unifies these two cases by using a FILE* in both cases. The
(line) buffering is done by the standard C library's implementation
(just like with stdout), and px4_log.c now uses the same code in all
cases (using fprintf, etc.) for printing (colored) output.
- make the selected parameter a template argument. This
enables type-checking at compile-time.
- move things to src/platforms.
This provides consistent includes with ModuleBase
- add ModuleParams base class (replaces Block & SuperBlock)
- drop the Block* prefix from the class names
* NuttX cmake
* px4_macros:Pass the stringified predicate as second arg to static assert
CC_ASSERT mapes to the c++ static_assert or provides the same
funtionality for c via the other macros. The c++ static assert
takes 2 argumants the prdicate and a message. This fixes the
lacking second argument.
* Updated nuttx and apps submodule to upstream nuttx 7.21+==master
This is the latest uptake of upstream nuttx and apps.
* ROMFS generate with xxd instead of objcopy
* delete nuttx-patches
* NuttX update submodules to latest px4_nuttx-master
* fix nuttx apps and board dependency
* docker_run update to latest container 2017-08-29
* cmake ROMFS portable sed usage
* NuttX update submodules to latest px4_nuttx-master
Provides:
- thread-safety for module start/stop
- some shared code for module start/stop. Should also be less prone to
errors.
- constructor & destructors are called from within the new module thread
- can be used for work queue & thread modules
- strutured & formal way for module printf usage & module documentation
Limitation:
- supports only modules with one instance (eg. not mavlink)
Now the mixer is a C++ library that can be fairly easily bolted into an output driver to provide mixing services.
Teach the FMU driver how to use it as an example. More testing is still required.
