Reason: the value is easier to read & handle (for example plotting). In
most places the value is needed, not the integral.
Note that this breaks the replay format for sdlog2 replay
- voting is now at a central place instead of duplicated within the
estimators
-> this also means that estimators that did not do voting so far,
now have voting, like ekf2
- estimators requiring more than that can still subscribe to the raw
sensors
- allows sensors_combined to be 3 times smaller
- reduces logger, memcpy (cache) & RAM overhead
- all modules requiring only 1 or 2 sensor values now automatically get
the voted result
- this also adds voting to baro
Decreases the message size from 780 to 280 bytes.
In particular, all modules using sensor_combined must use the integral now.
The sensor value can easily be reconstructed by dividing with dt.
Voters now need to be moved into sensors module, because error count and
priority is removed from the topic.
Any module that requires additional data from a sensor can subscribe to
the raw sensor topics.
At two places, values are set to zero instead of subscribing to the raw
sensors (with the assumption that no one reads them):
- mavlink mavlink_highres_imu_t::abs_pressure
- sdlog2: sensor temperatures
Added more SPort GPS Sensors
Fix code style
Adding DIY IDs
Moved navstate and gpsfix away from Temp1 and Temp2 to their own IDs
More consistent names
Fix codestyle
Rebase work off master frsky_telemetry driver
Fixed code-style error
forgot something
The commander used to consume the battery_status topic and write the
contents after some calculations into the system state. Instead, the
calculations now happen in library calls in systemlib/battery.
This moves the battery fields out of the vehicle_status message into the
battery_status topic.
This brought quite some changes in all modules that need battery
information. The current state is compiling but untested.
The calls to task_spawn_cmd, kill_all, and systemreset were wrappers
around the px4_{task_spawn_cmd|kill_all|systemreset} implementations.
Removed the wrappers and changed all calls to the px4_ equivalents.
NuttX specific code was moved into px4_tasks.h
