This will initialize those structs with zero in all fields not set
and all fields set will only be change once to the final value not
wasting CPU time zeroing it.
This will guarantee that no non-unitialized structs will have
a trash value on from_external causing it to be sent to the
MAVLink channel without need it.
The previous approach was checking system id and component id but it
will not work in 100% of cases as external devices can send MAVLink
message with the right system id but with broadcast component id.
- avoids race conditions when geofence data is updated in flight. During
a transfer, the geofence module will not check for violations, which
is done with the new dm_trylock method.
- there is an update counter stored in dataman, and for each write
transaction this is increased, so that the geofence module can reload
the data upon data change (after it's unlocked).
- single dm item updates are atomic already, so resetting the polygons
to 0 does not need locking.
- retrieve & store the geofence & rally point data from/to dataman
- interleaved transmissions (of different types) are not possible. trying
to do so will NACK the new transmission
- only one storage backend for polygons & rally points (not alternating
between 2 as the mission does)
The message handling was not obeying action focused messages and high-rate messages properly before. With this change update rates track the desired rates closely. Critical high-rate messages such as ADS-B are queued additionally to guarantee that all received packets are being correctly forwarded.
- change memory allocation from stack to a malloc'd buffer. This avoids
increasing the stack size. And since FTP is rarely used, the buffers
are only allocated upon use and freed after a time of 2s inactivity.
- adds PX4_ROOTFSDIR as root directory prefix. This does not change
anything on NuttX, but in SITL it will avoid enumerating the whole
disk tree when using QGC (which enumerates all files recursively).
The provided argument payload->offset is in range [0, num_file_entries-1],
but seekdir might use a completely different range. It is not defined
by the API spec. It is only useful in conjunction with telldir().
