On kinetis, the TPM_STATUS_TOF was used to detect missed interrupts for
PPM decoding. However this was not correct, because the TOF bit was set on
each timer overflow. This happened regularly after every 64ms interval,
which meant that most PPM frames were just discarded.
I have not found any equivalent register/solution that is used on STMF4,
so this just removes the TOF handling. However there is now no way to
detect missed edges/interrupts!
* Updated and expanded batt_smbus to work with bq40z50-R2. Expanded battery_status.msg. Fixed mavlink_messages.cpp temperature, added commented out expanded battery_status.msg parameters for future mavlink expansion.
* Changed errx to PX4_ERR
* Added PX4_ERR returns
If the GPS driver was used on another port (e.g. TELEM2), it would get
stuck in a `write` call and not return anymore. Disabling flow control
fixes that.
CPU usage is unchanged.
- move to ModuleBase
- strip down to PWM 8 and 16 modes only
- remove all dead code
- implement missing pwm ioctls (current value, rates, etc)
- default rate 50Hz -> 400Hz
ROI yaw control: configure yawing capability of mount in vmount parameters.
If configured that mount has no yaw control, vehicle will yaw towards ROI, irrespective of MIS_YAWMODE.
Vehicle will behave according to MIS_YAWMODE when there is no ROI.
or receiving a command that we need to handle. This makes sure that we
don't drop commands, when the output mode is set to mavlink (in that case
the input topic is rate-limited, and each input change results in a
vehicle_command publication, which results in queueing up orb items if we
get vehicle_commands from other sources too).
This fixes the case where a new gimbal input gets lost in the output
throttling.
This is required because an input is potentially set only once and
then not computed again. In the failure case, control_data is set
to nullptr in subsequent calls and therefore not used for the output
calculation ever.
This resolves the case where a gimbal command assembled by
QGroundControl is rejected because the component id is set to 0 (for
all) and the component id of the vehicle is e.g. 1.
