This is necessary when using multiple instances of a topic. However it does
not free the underlying resources, as it is assumed they will be used again
at a later point.
This test failed on the pixracer because the subscriber thread was too slow
and thus orb messages got lost. This behavior is expected, but the test
should not fail because of that, so we increase the sleeping time.
This fixes the previously introduced unit test. It fixes the case where
orb_subscribe_multi is called multiple times with different instances,
and no publisher advertised the topic yet. In this case all subscribers
got the same instance 0.
This fixes a subtle bug: the instance parameter of orb_advertise is an output
parameter and thus its value can be random. However in node_open this value
is accessed and thus the open(...) call could succeed even though it should
not. This can happen for example if a second advertiser of a topic calls
orb_advertise_multi with *instance=0.
The existing implementation worked only because *instance was initialized
with -1 in most cases.
This moves the mavlink_log interface from ioctl to uORB and enables the
mavlink statusmessage output for Snapdragon. The API changes will lead
to changes in all modules that are using it.
Instead of using a uORB topic with the calibration values published in
sensors and consumed by the DriverFramework driver wrappers, let's just
use the the params directly. This is quite a rough change and needs
definitely some cleanup and refactoring.
This adds uORB messages to publish calibration data by sensors which is
then consumed by the sensors. Currently this is only used on Snapdragon
and guarded by QURT ifdefs.
The `orb_check` function takes a pointer to a `bool` which it then passes
to `px4_ioctl`. However, if the call to `px4_ioctl` fails, the bool
doesn't get updated (neither set nor cleared). Therefore, in `orb_check`
we explicitly set the bool to `false` before passing the pointer to
`px4_ioctl`.
Fixed CMakeLists.txt to be consistent with module.mk
Converted PX4_TICKS_PER_SEC to define for QURT to get around relocation error
Added stubs for QURT so building a full executable can be tested. This will
enable CI testing without the full Hexagon SDK.
