- 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
On more complicated setups it's still possible to exceed 32 tasks. For example fmu-v5 with mavlink on every telem (+ USB), external spi usage (pmw3901), gimbal (vmount), multiple i2c sensors, and camera feedback is 35 tasks (with top running). This is a fairly extreme case, so I'm only going to increase CONFIG_MAX_TASKS on newer F7 boards.
