Newer esc firmware versions on bebop 1 and all the versions on bebop 2
have a different order for the motors in the i2c frame sent to the
esc contoller. This commit adds support for both versions by reading
the firmware version of the esc, using GET_INFO frame
This was previously used to allow to save a state in a SPIDriver so we
could synchronize the initialization of AP_Compass and
AP_InertialSensor.
It was only used by MPU9250 and is not used anymore since the move to
AuxiliaryBus initialization and it's not used anymore since c3dae6f
("AP_InertialSensor: MPU9250: Remove methods not used anymore")
As commented in 8218140 ("AP_Common: add scanf format macro"), "FORMAT"
was a bad name for this macro since there's also the scanf. Rename to
FMT_PRINTF to follow the scanf name.
Only compiled on Bebop, the constructor will need to be modified to
pass the pwm chip number and to create a PWM_Sysfs instead of a PWM_Sysfs_Bebop
in case it is used on a mainline linux board
- Make error path in constructor shorter and earlier. It's calling
panic() so there's no reason to do anything else
- We don't need to check variable for NULL when calling free()
- Change set/get_polarity to use a virtual function; this allows us
not to fail silently if _polarity_path is NULL for PWM_Sysfs.
PWM_Sysfs_Bebop just overrides this method and implement an empty
version.
Modify existing class to create a PWM_Sysfs_Base class and derive it for
Bebop and Pwm_Sysfs (mainline kernel)
use asprintf for path allocation since it doesn't cost so much and is done
only at startup
Note that the constructor of the 2 classes : PWM_Sysfs and PWM_Sysfs_Bebop
allocate the paths and the constructor and desctuctor of class PWM_Sysfs_Base
frees them.
only keep in memory the paths that are needed later, i.e free _export_path,
_duty_path. The remaining path are freed in the destructor
Implement the new AP_HAL functions and use them in the Scheduler when
possible.
The '_sketch_start_time' was renamed and moved as a detail of
implementation of the functions code. It allows the code to return time
starting from zero.
The 'stopped_clock_usec' was renamed to follow convention in the file
and add a getter so that AP_HAL functions can reach it. It's not a
problem this getter is public because in practice, regular code
shouldn't even access the Linux::Scheduler directly -- only code that
should is from Linux implementation.
For certain basic functionality, there aren't much benefit to be able to
vary the implementation easily at runtime. So instead of using virtual
functions, use regular functions that are "resolved" at link time. The
implementation of such functions is provided per board/platform.
Examples of functions that fit this include: getting the current
time (since boot), panic'ing, getting system information, rebooting.
These functions are less likely to benefit from the indirection provided
by virtual interfaces. For more complex hardware access APIs the
indirection makes more sense and ease the testing (when we have it!).
The idea is that instead of calling
hal.scheduler->panic("on the streets of london");
now use
AP_HAL::panic("on the streets of london");
A less important side-effect is that call-site code gets
smaller. Currently the compiler needs to get the hal, get the scheduler
pointer, get the right function pointer in the vtable for that
scheduler. And the call must include an extra parameter ("this"). Now it
will be just a function call, with the address resolved at link time.
This patch introduces the first functions that will be in the namespace,
further patches will implementations for each board and then switch the
call-sites. The extra init() function allow any initial setup needed for
the functions to work.
When there is already a driver registered on an i2c bus, the I2C_SLAVE ioctl
returns an error.
When it happens, it is better to display a warning and try to force the address.
It is especially useful on the bebop when killing the regular autopilot that uses
iio drivers to access the imu because else we would need to manually unbind the
driver in an init procedure.
I have added a warning because this error can also be resulting of another cause.
If the error is not EBUSY, then panic
If the I2C_SLAVE_FORCE ioctl fails then we panic because one of the i2c devices
won't be working properly.
This include some minor changes on all methods of PWM_Sysfs:
- Sort headers
- Add code inside Linux namespace rather than just use the namespace
- Declare a union pwm_params, that's only used to calculate at compile
time the maximum stack space we need in our methods: this is a bit
safer for future extensions
- Standardize error messages to include the useful params first and
then the error message
- Remove log message from hot path
- Don't abuse macros for checking error - convert the SNPRINTF_CHECK
macro into proper code, ignoring errors for not enough space since
they can't happen
- Fix call to read_file() passing uint8_t for "%u" in get_period()
- Fix passing char** instead of char* to write_file() in set_polarity()
- Use strncmp() instead of strncasecmp() since the kernel API uses
lowercase.
- Add comments on the 2 main methods of this class
With commit 24f4153 ("AP_HAL_Linux: RCOutput_PCA9685: group writes") a
log was introduced when we can't get the bus semaphore. However since we
are calling the non blocking method, failing there is not that unlikely
if the bus is shared. Return back to the previous behavior of not
logging.
prog_char and prog_char_t are now the same as char on supported
platforms. So, just change all places that use them and prefer char
instead.
AVR-specific places were not changed.
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.
