- saves a small amount of work for the ekf2 selector in multi-EKF mode (visual_odometry_aligned now ignored)
- helps to distinguish the origin/purpose from vehicle_odometry and vehicle_visual_odometry
- ekf2 can now run in multi-instance mode (currently up to 9 instances)
- in multi mode all estimates are published to alternate topics (eg estimator_attitude instead of vehicle_attitude)
- new ekf2 selector runs in multi-instance mode to monitor and compare all instances, selecting a primary (eg N x estimator_attitude => vehicle_attitude)
- sensors module accel & gyro inconsistency checks are now relative to the mean of all instances, rather than the current primary (when active ekf2 selector is responsible for choosing primary accel & gyro)
- existing consumers of estimator_status must check estimator_selector_status to select current primary instance status
- ekf2 single instance mode is still fully supported and the default

- new sensors work item that subscribes to N x sensor_gps and publishes vehicle_gps_position
- blending is now configurable with SENS_GPS_MASK and SENS_GPS_TAU

- inconsistency checks now run continuously instead of only preflight
- keep inconsistencies for all sensors
- add per sensor data validator state as overall health flag
- log full sensor_combined by default for now
- small decrease to input_rc rate (manual_control_setpoint is no longer filtered)
- sensor_correction can be logged at full rate (low publication rate)
If some bits are set but no topic was added, _subscriptions was null but
later accessed.
During normal use this only happens when switching between different
firmware versions with different SDLOG_PROFILE definition (with custom
config).
Minimum requirement to use: set IMU_GYRO_RATEMAX to 400.
Logging rate of a single topic: ~85 KB/s. If multiple should be logged,
a really good SD card has to be used.
- IMU integration move from drivers (PX4Accelerometer/PX4Gyroscope) to sensors/vehicle_imu
- sensors: voted_sensors_update now consumes vehicle_imu
- delete sensor_accel_integrated, sensor_gyro_integrated
- merge sensor_accel_status/sensor_gyro_status into vehicle_imu_status
- sensors status output minor improvements (ordering, whitespace, show selected sensor device id and instance)
* msg: Add EKF-GSF yaw estimator logging data
* ecl: update to version with EKF-GSF yaw estimator
* ekf2: Add param control and logging for EKF-GSF yaw estimator
* logger: Add logging for EKF-GSF yaw esimtator
with measurement noise auto-tuning
The purpose of this estimator is to improve land detection and vertical
velocity feedforward
Recovery strategy:
This is required when the setpoint suddenly changes in air or that the
EKF is diverging. A lowpassed test ratio is used as a trigger for the recovery logic
Also, a lowpassed residual is used to estimate the steady-state value
and remove it when estimating the accel noise to avoid increasing the
accel noise when the redisual is caused by an offset.
new versions of logger does not allow to log multiple instances of a topic when using 'logger_topics.txt'
This commit restores the default behavior (log all instances of a topic) and ad the option to specify an instance to log
- split out integrated data into new standalone messages (sensor_accel_integrated and sensor_gyro_integrated)
- publish sensor_gyro at full rate and remove sensor_gyro_control
- limit sensor status publications to 10 Hz
- remove unused accel/gyro raw ADC fields
- add device IDs to sensor_bias and sensor_correction
- vehicle_angular_velocity/vehicle_acceleration: check device ids before using bias and corrections
