- remove all remaining IOCTLs for accel and gyro and handle all calibration entirely in sensors module with parameters
- sensor_accel and sensor_gyro are now always raw sensor data
- calibration procedures no longer need to first clear existing values before starting
- temperature calibration (TC) remove all scale (SCL) parameters
- gyro and baro scale are completely unused
- regular accel calibration scale can be used (CAL_ACC*_xSCALE) instead of TC scale
- at start perform full sensor signal path reset and wait for max time
- issue full sensor reset on any error
- only allocate DRDY perf counter if GPIO is available
- allow running faster than accel ODR (safe limit of 2 kHz in place)
- IMU integration move from drivers (PX4Accelerometer/PX4Gyroscope) to sensors/vehicle_imu
- sensors: voted_sensors_update now consumes vehicle_imu
- delete sensor_accel_integrated, sensor_gyro_integrated
- merge sensor_accel_status/sensor_gyro_status into vehicle_imu_status
- sensors status output minor improvements (ordering, whitespace, show selected sensor device id and instance)
- bring in PX4/ecl#795 "EKF: Improve covariance prediction stability"
- the ecl/EKF filter update period has changed from 8 ms to 10 ms
- change default integration period 4000 us -> 2500 us (aligns with new EKF filter update period)
- always check FIFO count before transfer even with data ready
- interupt pin set active low and latch
- relax retry timeout if configure failed
- improve configured empty rate (sample rate) rounding
- check FIFO count as part of full transfer and reset or adjust timing if necessary
- 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
This avoids the need for recalibration, and also cleans up other driver
ID's (merge separate accel/gyro).
The SPI address was previously set to a board-specific (arbitrary) value,
and is now set to 0. This will allow extending for multiple sensors of the
same type on the same bus.
