This is the first cleanup pass through makefiles and pios.
Probably it is difficult to track changes due to the nature of them.
I would recommend to look at resulting files and compiled code instead.
NOTE: original branch was rebased and lot of conflicts were fixed on
the way. So do not expect that every commit in this series will be
buildable (unlike original branch). Only final result was tested.
The main goal was to remove as much duplication of code (and copy/paste
errors) as possible, moving common parts out of Makefiles. It still is
not perfect, and mostly no code changes made - Makefiles and #ifdefs only.
But please while testing make sure that all code works as before, and no
modules/options are missed by accident.
Brief list of changes:
- Moved common parts of Makefiles into the set of *.mk files.
- Changed method of passing common vars from top Makefile to lower ones.
- Some pios cleanup, mostly #ifdefs, and all pios_config.h files.
- Many obsolete files removed (for instance, AHRS files, op_config.h).
- Many obsolete or unused macros removed or fixed/renamed (ALL_DIGNOSTICS).
- Unified pios_config.h template. Please don't remove lines for board
configs, only comment/uncomment them. Adding new PIOS options, please
propagate them to all board files keeping the same order.
- Some formatting, spacing, indentation (no line endings change yet).
- Some cosmetic fixes (no more C:\X\Y\filename.c printings on Windows).
- Added some library.mk files to move libs into AR achives later.
- EntireFlash target now uses cross-platform python script to generate bin
files. So it works on all supported platforms: Linux, OSX, Windows.
- Top level packaging is completely rewritten. Now it is a part of top
Makefile. As such, all dependencies are checked and accounted, no
more 'make -j' problems should occur.
- Default GCS_BUILD_CONF is release now, may be changed if necessary
using 'make GCS_BUILD_CONF=debug gcs'.
- GCS build paths are separated into debug and release, so no more obj
file clashes. Packaging system supports only release builds.
- New target is introduced: 'clean_package'. Now 'make package' does not
clean build directory. Use clean_package instead for distributable builds.
- Targets like 'all', 'opfw_resource', etc now will print extra contex
in parallel builds too.
- If any of 'package', 'clean_package', 'opfw_resource' targets are given
on command line, GCS build will depend on the resource, so all fw_*.opfw
targets will be built and embedded into GCS. By default GCS does not
depend on resource, and will be built w/o firmware (unless the resource
files already exist and the Qt resource file is generated).
- fw_simposix (ELF executable) is now packaged for linux. Run'n'play!
- Make help is refined and is now up to date.
Still broken:
- UnitTests, should be fixed
- SimPosix: buildable, but should be reworked.
Next planned passes to do:
- toolchain bootstrapping and packaging (including windows - WIP)
- CMSIS/StdPeriph lib cleanup
- more PIOS cleanup
- move libs into AR archives to save build time
- sim targets refactir and cleanup
- move android-related directories under <top>/android
- unit test targets fix
- source code line ending changes (there are many different, were not changed)
- coding style

A lot of... :-)
Actuator did not provide an option to completely shutdown selected channels
(set PWM pulse = 0). It is useful for camera stabilization boot delay (we
want few seconds of gimbal servo inactivity to calibrate gyros). It also
might be useful for failsafe on some channels. This option is now available.
It is used to disable camera outputs during fixed 7s delay after boot
instead of setting them to minimum position.
As a side effect, few bugs are fixed (ticks should be multiplied by
portTICK_RATE_MS, not divided, to get time in ms). And few floating point
operations were optimized out as well.
ActuatorCommand.UpdateTime was promoted to uint16 because it is not unusual
to have it 20000ms during flash updates (was seen on the CC after UAV
settings import). So it should be 16bit as well.
Refactored the updating of ChannelUpdateFreq so that it is done only when the actual update rates changes.
The actual update of the servo channel is moved inside the ActuatorTask.
Now the problem happen only in very few cases when modifying update rates.
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.
heap reamining is low (about 500) but stacks can be ajusted (specially the 200 bytes from system) to give the level close to 1Ko if needed.

- 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)
outputs. Warning: This has no failsafes like arming. We should discuss if
this is appropriate.
In addition accessory objects can be routed throught the mixer for collective
or flaperon.
