- this is a new module for temperature compensation that consolidates the functionality previously handled in the sensors module (calculating runtime thermal corrections) and the events module (online thermal calibration)
- by collecting this functionality into a single module we can optionally disable it on systems where it's not used and save some flash (if disabled at build time) or memory (disabled at run time)
and remove the px4_ prefix, except for px4_config.h.
command to update includes:
for k in app.h atomic.h cli.h console_buffer.h defines.h getopt.h i2c.h init.h log.h micro_hal.h module.h module_params.h param.h param_macros.h posix.h sem.h sem.hpp shmem.h shutdown.h tasks.h time.h workqueue.h; do for i in $(grep -rl 'include <px4_'$k src platforms boards); do sed -i 's/#include <px4_'$k'/#include <px4_platform_common\/'$k/ $i; done; done
for in $(grep -rl 'include <px4_config.h' src platforms boards); do sed -i 's/#include <px4_config.h/#include <px4_platform_common\/px4_config.h'/ $i; done
Transitional headers for submodules are added (px4_{defines,log,time}.h)
This will initialize those structs with zero in all fields not set
and all fields set will only be change once to the final value not
wasting CPU time zeroing it.
This will guarantee that no non-unitialized structs will have
a trash value on from_external causing it to be sent to the
MAVLink channel without need it.
It uses the LP worker queue to periodically check for vehicle commands (30hz),
useful for several housekeeping tasks.
Currently the only task is temperature calibration.
Commands can be started via command line or via vehicle_command (from
Mavlink)
TODO: need to spec & extend the mavlink command.
