- during casual testing on default configs the stack was penetration was reaching ~90% which is a bit too close for comfort
- increasing by 50% to be conservative
This enables flow control on CDCACM for the NuttX boards which fixes a
problem where HITL would stall.
The stall could happen if the hardware would be a bit too slow in
keeping up with the incoming messages. Often, this happened on arming
because the logger would take some time to log all parameters right at
the beginning.
The stall would then not recover due to NuttX bug where the rx interrupt
would not be restored correctly and instead only a slower watchdog would
release the next read. This watchdog takes 200ms which means it's hard
to impossible to get out of the situation without restarting sim and/or
PX4. For more information about the issue, see:
apache/incubator-nuttx#3633
As a workaround, until that bug is fixed, and because it makes sense
anyway, I propose to enable FLOWCONTROL for the serial via USB.
- cmake NuttX build wrapper compile in place instead of copying source tree to build directory
- slightly faster skipping necessary copying (depending on system)
- allows debugging in place
- easier to work directly in NuttX following official documentation
- simplifies overall build which should make it easier to resolve any remaining NuttX dependency issues in the build system
- the downside is switching back and forth between different builds always require rebuilding NuttX, but I think this is worth the improved developer experience
- also no longer builds px4io and bootloader in every single build, for most users these rarely change and we're wasting a lot of build time
Without reverting this a constant boot loop occurs.
Prior to merging, why this occurs on some F7 boards and not this one should be looked at.
With LazyFPU enabled, v1.12.0 beta1 will not boot but without it removed it works fine.
- increase stack sizes to run cleanly under stackcheck
- this is likely overkill for most boards, but using stackcheck to set our minimum ensures we have a very safe margin on regular builds and it's something we can currently afford
- remove holybro_durandal-v1_stackcheck from test rack (there's only one unit)
- this doesn't currently change anything, but gets us ready to start
experimenting with using the small amount of instruction tightly memory
on STM32F7
- the .ramfuncs section works with NuttX CONFIG_ARCH_RAMFUNCS
- update to NuttX with stm32f4 and stm32f7 SPI DMA internal buffers
- remove explicit DMA buffer allocations from new IMU drivers
- restore original BOARD_DMA_ALLOC_POOL_SIZE
- decrease SPI DMA thresholds based on fmu-v2/v3/v4/v5 bench testing
