612d3336b4 This patch breaks backward compatibility with AHRS solidly.
Move the configuration files for INS from AHRS* to INS*.  Strip out unused
fields in settings and merge calibration and settings since settings has
basically no information.

2f86e4dd4f Make PWM/PPM and Servo drivers play nicely together
PWM and PPM can now coexist in the same load and be
selected at boot time via the hwsettings UAVObject.

This is basically a complete restructuring of the
way the drivers interact with the TIM peripheral in
the STM32.

As a side effect, the PWM and PPM drivers are now
ready to support multiple instances of each.

This also provides the first step toward being able
to reassign some of the PWM input pins to be servo
output pins.  Still more work required, but this is
a good start.

Stacey Sheldon
5f8760a55c com: Move buffering out of USART/HID layer and into COM layer
This allows the spektrum and sbus receiver drivers to bind
directly to the usart layer using a properly exported API
rather than overriding the interrupt handler.

Bytes are now pushed directly from the usart layer into the
com layer without any buffering.  The com layer performs all
of the buffering.

A further benefit from this approach is that we can put all
blocking/non-blocking behaviour into the COM layer and not
in the underlying drivers.

Misc related changes:
 - Remove obsolete .handler field from irq configs
 - Adapt all users of PIOS_COM_* functions to new API
 - Fixup callers of PIOS_USB_HID_Init()

226f095a2e bootcfg: remove baudrate #defines for USARTs
The initial baud rates of each interface are now forced in the
board init code.

Any modules using USARTs should have fields added to
their settings object to allow the user to change the
baud rate from the default by using the COM layer APIs.

Developers requiring custom baud rates before the settings
objects are in place should locally edit the cfg structs
to specify the desired baud rates.

dbf7574946 bootcfg: use UAVobj to control boot-time HW config
This should mark an end to the compile-time selection of HW
configurations.

Minor changes in board initialization for all platforms:
 - Most config structs are marked static to prevent badly written
   drivers from directly referring to config data.
 - Adapt to changes in .irq fields in config data.
 - Adapt to changes in USART IRQ handling.

Major changes in board initialization for CC:
 - Use HwSettings UAVObj to decide which drivers to attach to
   the "main" port and the flexi port, and select the appropriate
   device configuration data.
 - HwSettings allows choosing between Disabled, Telemetry, SBUS,
   Spektrum,GPS, and I2C for each of the two ports.
 - Use ManualControlSettings.InputMode to init/configure the
   appropriate receiver module, and register its available rx channels
   with the PIOS_RCVR layer.  Can choose between PWM, Spektrum and PPM
   at board init time.  PPM driver is broken, and SBUS will work once
   it is added to this UAVObj as an option.
 - CC build now includes code for SBUS, Spektrum and PWM receivers in
   every firmware image.

PIOS_USART driver:
 - Now handles its own low-level IRQs internally
 - If NULL upper-level IRQ handler is bound in at board init time
   then rx/tx is satisfied by internal PIOS_USART buffered IO routines
   which are (typically) attached to the COM layer.
 - If an alternate upper-level IRQ handler is bound in at board init
   then that handler is called and expected to clear down the USART
   IRQ sources.  This is used by Spektrum and SBUS drivers.

PIOS_SBUS and PIOS_SPEKTRUM drivers:
 - Improved data/API hiding
 - No longer assume they know where their config data is stored which
   allows for boot-time alternate configurations for the driver.
 - Now registers an upper-level IRQ handlerwith the USART layer to
   decouple the driver from which USART it is actually attached to.

fc1e3f574c OP-423: Split task create and module init in order to postpone task creation once the full heap is available.
Also implement some ordering (quite ugly still) in the module init and task creation order so we can decide which module to start/init first
and which module to start/init last.
This will be replaced/adapter with the uavobject list later (once it's implemented).
reserving some space for module init and task create parameters to customize module/task creation (this will be usefull once we get the list and customization from customer).

Changes have been made for OP and CC. Tested comped with CC,OP, sim_posix.
Only ran on bench with CC for couple of minutes (code increase expected but no dropping of stack which is good).

This gives task creation at the time wherethe all heap is available.

65cf467ca4 OP-423: move the module initialize funtion into a specific section for OP and CC.
- create linker section for those <module>Initialize()
- later this list will incorporate parameters as well. (this probably will be more a OP feature to swap/remove/delete module on the fly.
- this is not done at compile time anymore by Makefile.
- this will allow us to have control on the module start at run-time (not implemented but build the ground for it).
- this simplify the startup (Part of code re-org).
- this change does not affect sim_posix and win32 (since they don't need that)
- ensure it's compiling for PiOS.posix
- port to PiOS.win32 but not tested (not compiled)
- tested on CC
- compile on OP.
- this free ~200 bytes.
- current avalable bytes (is we keep the same remaining bytes on the stack than before) is easily passed the 1.2Ko mark on CC with new gcc (4.5.2)
- this does not include init-reorg for each module (I still think more can be freed)

3780de8d3e OP-423 port to OP (heap2) the previous changes done in CC (heap1) (see c95b199166)
I managed to test CC with heap2 changes and the init stack claimed back to heap once scheduler starts.

the changes of this commit are OP related (just cleanup on CC side):
Arch specific stuff (in reset vector) to hide this from portable code:
     - switch back to MSP stack before starting the scheduler so that the sheduler can use the IRQ stack (when/if needed).
     - call the C portable function in heap2 to claim some stack back (the number to claim is taken from linker file).
     - start the scheduler from reset vector (I move this here from main because it make sense to not go back to C (so that I don't need to copy the rolled stack in case the sheduler returns). This make it more clean.
     - Also I have added the call to the mem manager if sheduler return. that way, we don't reset indefinitely if memory runs out. We will go to this handler and figure things out (right now, it's just looping but at least not rebooting. Probably trap NMI would be better (later improvement).

0a67730d0f build: refactor fw, bl and bu rules
- New macros for fw, bl and bu rules in top-level make
- Per-board info factored into make/board/*/board-info.mk
- Per-board info now shared btw. fw, bl and blupd for each board
   - BOARD_TYPE, BOARD_REVISION, BOOTLOADER_VERSION, HW_TYPE
   - MCU, CHIP, BOARD, MODEL, MODEL_SUFFIX
   - START_OF_BL_CODE, START_OF_FW_CODE
- blupd_* goals renamed to bu_*
- all_blupd goal renamed to all_bu
- firmware goals renamed to fw_*, board name goals are preserved
- bu_*_program now writes updater to correct address for all boards
- BL updater firmware builds now produce .opf format including
  version info blob.
- BL updater firmware name now includes board name.
- INS makefile brought up to date w.r.t. linker scripts

0005729056 OP-500: fix PyMite dependencies on autogenerated files
This is done by separating PyMite-dependent sources and making them
dependent on autogenerated python code. This was tested with make -j
on Windows and worked fine. It failed with errors otherwise:

In file included from ../Libraries/PyMite/vm/class.c:28:
../Libraries/PyMite/vm/pm.h:198: fatal error: pmfeatures.h: No such file or directory

29ec2f198b build: convert all app loads to require bootloaders
This change is made up of a number of tightly coupled
changes:
 - Deprecate the use of the USE_BOOTLOADER command-line
   option.  It is now hard-coded in each Makefile.
   Overriding it on the command line is not allowed.
 - Split apart the memory declaration and the section
   declaration in all linker files (*_memory.ld and
   *_sections.ld).
 - Describe the split between bootloader and app sections
   of flash in each board's _memory.ld file.
 - Change program target to selectively erase flash so
   that the installed bootloader is preserved across even
   JTAG programming operations.
 - All elf files are built with debug symbols and are not
   stripped.  This should help debugging with gdb.  The
   images programmed on the boards are all .bin files now
   which do not include symbols.

7e99419c8a build: Add support for %.bin.o generation
The .bin.o rule places the contents of a raw .bin file
into an .o file wrapped within fixed symbols for start
and end.  This can be used to embed a binary file inside
of an executable.

The symbols for the embedded binary blob are:
 _binary_start
 _binary_end
 _binary_size

NOTE: The way the .bin.o rule is currently written, you
can only embed one binary blob in an executable since the
symbol names will collide if you add multiple blobs.  This
limitation is easily removed later if necessary.
