Common: rename SMART_BATTERY_INFO to BATTERY_INFO and add SOH

As a follow up to https://github.com/mavlink/mavlink/pull/2069, here is a propos…al for the BATTERY_INFO message: 1. renamed SMART_BATTERY_INFO to BATTERY_INFO based on the assumption that there were no users of the old message 2. removed the extension tag because if we're going to rename the message then old consumers can't use it anyway, so no need for the last few fields to be extensions 3. added a state_of_health field just below the capacity fields which I think are all related I suppose that more analysis is required to confirm that this message is complete before we can merge.

generator/C: Don't parse messages outside CRC_EXTRA

I have been wondering for a while why I sometimes see MAVLink components "appear…" with random sysid/compid when I leave a system running for some time. Today I finally caught the bytes of such a case, the offending bytes were: `{253, 0, 1, 0, 0, 3, 1, 1, 42, 0, 185, 186, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0};` This is msgid 10753 from sysid 3, compid 1 with payload len 0. It's presumably signed, hence the trailing zeros. It turns out the msgid is way out of the CRC_EXTRA table and hence the mavlink_get_msg_entry(msgid) function returns NULL. In that case 0 is ignored and we carry on parsing. My suggestion is to reset parsing when we don't know the CRC_EXTRA of the message to avoid flagging noise as a valid message.

MAVCesium: Switch to newer fork and expose mavcesium CLI

# Purpose Add my MAVCesium fork and expose it a bit better in MAVProxy. # …Expectations With `mavproxy.py --cesium`, it will start the web server, which you can open at `http://0.0.0.0:5000/mavcesium/#`. You can also still do `module load cesium`. Currently, mavproxy does not connect properly when launched in this mode. It works best with the standalone mode, where you launch mavproxy, then launch mavcesium separately in another terminal. ```bash python3 cesium_web_server.py ``` I'll chase that down soon - it's likely a difference in default options because the websocket receives no data. I'd like to propose merging this as-is with the known deficiency because it's still a large improvement. Here's what you get: Birds eye view of Kaga (default on open when you start SITL in Kaga) ![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0b143845-36b2-404a-8f60-2a90e4859fc3) Once you take off, the takeoff orbit is marked in pink. ![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/9d8e157a-e55a-4e53-b84f-dacdee38312c) There is a known issue of the vehicle model being yawed 90 off. I'll fix it later. The forward facing view works too ![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a67946bf-11c1-4bf7-9459-e593c67d72dd) If you switch to FBWB, you can turn on the camera projection, and get a good idea of what it looks like. ![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/089b8025-f7c5-4f99-b46d-5176378bd846) # Follow up I'd like to get it fully working (integrated as a mavproxy module) and fix any obvious bugs.

AP_Logger: Add enum information to VER log message metadata

opened 09:26PM - 23 Feb 24 UTC

The aim of this PR is to add help text for the VER and FILE log messages (linked… to issue #26088). Implemented by adding the relevant comment tags into AP_Logger.cpp As well as just adding the field descriptions, I wanted to include the enumeration information for the BT, BST and BU fields of the VER message. As there are sets of #defines and not actual enums, I made the following updates: * Add support to enum_parse.py to extract #define sets enclosed between @LoggerEnum and @LoggerEnumEnd comment tags. * Add @LoggerEnum and @LoggerEnumEnd comment tags around HAL_BOARD and HAL_BOARD_SUBTYPE defines in AP_HAL_Boards.h. * Add @LoggerEnum and @LoggerEnumEnd comment tags around APM_BUILD defines in AP_Vehicle_Type.h. Tested by running parse.py for each vehicle type, and checking the output. As example, this is the output for the VER message in the .rst output file used to create the wiki page (truncated here to save space): ``` +--------+----------+-------------------------------------------------------+ | TimeUS | μs | Time since system startup | +--------+----------+-------------------------------------------------------+ | BT | enum | Board type | | | | Values: | | | | | | | | +-------------------+----+----------+ | | | | | HAL_BOARD_SITL | 3 | | | | | | +-------------------+----+----------+ | | | | | HAL_BOARD_SMACCM | 4 | unused | | | | | +-------------------+----+----------+ | | | | (etc) | +--------+----------+-------------------------------------------------------+ | BST | enum | Board subtype | | | | Values: | | | | | | | | +-----------------------------------------+------+--+ | | | | | HAL_BOARD_SUBTYPE_NONE | -1 | | | | | | +-----------------------------------------+------+--+ | | | | | HAL_BOARD_SUBTYPE_LINUX_NONE | 1000 | | | | | | +-----------------------------------------+------+--+ | | | | (etc) | ```

Quicktune C++ conversion (WIP)

Add Quicktune to C++ code (conversion from the VTOL-quicktune lua script). Te…sted in SITL, multiple multcopters and quadplanes Edit: Tridge has added support for quadplanes and an autotest for it and made it not run for helis. I plan to add an autotest for the copter version shortly. I have also updated the PR to limit quicktune to only alt_hold and loiter in copter, and Tridge did something similar for quadplanes. Edit 2: Tridge updated it to make it always allocate, to be more in line with the pattern in copter, and moved it to its own thread. He also added a max attitude error, so it auto-aborts if the vehicle starts oscillating badly during the tune and made it abort the tune if the pilot changes to a mode that doesn't support quicktune. Note that it does not abort if the pilot changes between modes that do support quicktune, allowing people to, for example, do the tuning in loiter mode, then switch to alt_hold to test the tune before saving the gains. Now tested on a quadplane as well. As for the flash concerns, yes, it uses around 5k of flash, but autotune uses around 15k of flash, so for a tuner, quicktune is actually rather light.

* Tested on CubeOrangePlus and CubeRedPrimary with Invensensev3 driver * I us…ed debug trace to analyse timeline for read_fifo to check if we have any substantial overhead while doing SPI transactions. It turned out that calling spiStart and spiStop which in turn call dmaStreamAlloc and and dealloc to take substantial amount of CPU call almost 3-4us. Also we were calling Shared DMA mutex lock and unlock when the DMA is not shared between peripherals. * Following changes made SPI transactions much less CPU intensive: - * Do not reset SPI peripheral using spistop and spistart calls if SPI config hasn't changed. - * Also make changes to SPI frequencies for CubeOrangePlus and CubeRedPrimary to match on the bus where possible (minor CPU gain through this, just first part was enough as most transactions are IMU anyways). - * Do not call mutex lock unlock for unshared DMAs.

AP_HAL_SITL: process inbound data in outqueue-length delay loop

ArduPilot:master ← peterbarker:pr/read-connection-in-loop

opened 02:44AM - 10 Nov 24 UTC

peterbarker

+3 -1

this is the loop which ensures the amount of data sent to the mavlink client (us…ually Python) is limited - if we don't do this then we lose vast amounts of data when running at large speedups. By attempting to process inbound data we may realise that the TCP connection has been dropped, and in that case we will start to listen for another connection. This allows you to terminate the sim_vehicle.py MAVProxy and have it automagically restart (when running under GDB). This is very useful for testing MAVProxy patches with SITL; it's a different workflow to opening an output and connecting a new version of MAVProxy to that outout. ![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/89edc534-a6a7-4ddf-b1da-95d71245db73)

ArduPlane: add failsafe auto variant which skips loops

ArduPilot:master ← peterbarker:pr/possible-jump-satify-hack-master

opened 03:12AM - 10 Nov 24 UTC

peterbarker

+24 -2

Sometimes a mission is specifically crafted to avoid terrain and other obstacles…. In the event of a failsafe, it may be better for the vehicle to continue on the plotted course, but consider any loops to be satisfied. Naturally this may lead to the vehicle flying further in the case of a battery failsafe. This PR adds a new failsafe type for Plane which pokes the AP_Mission library to indicate all loops should be satisfied. A similar effect can be achieved by creating a "shadow" mission containing waypoints identical to the original mission and adding many `DO_LAND_START` mission items to ensure the correct next waypoint is chosen. I'm not 100% convinced this is the correct way to approach things. One obvious issue is that if an RTL is issues then we won't continue to follow the mission, rather jump straight to the `DO_LAND_START`. The original work was done on top of Plane-4.5, which was missing @IamPete1 's [`DO_RETURN_PATH_START`](https://github.com/ArduPilot/ardupilot/pull/26383) code. It might be that we would be better-off adding an option into param 1 of that mission item type which specifies that all loop counters should be considered satisfied? Would also need to add support to Plane for `DO_RETURN_PATH_START`. @MichelleRos

UTC2301 - Common: rename SMART_BATTERY_INFO to BATTERY_INFO and add SOH by rmackay9 · Pull Request #2070 · mavlink/mavlink · GitHub

Discussion of serial numbers
Massive diversion onto changing the shape of the battery info packet
- One invalid packet in 65536 will be accepted….
What’s the correct way to transport battery serial numbers
BatteryPeriodic DroneCAN message encodes using 32 bytes
BatteryPeriodic doesn’t include a battery ID
integers should be turned into their ASCII representation for transport via mavlink
atoi on these char[32] fields is not a valid thing to do
We should revisit the WIP tag stuff

UTC2335 - Make dronecan_dsdlc.py executable for use on Linux systems by brad112358 · Pull Request #33 · dronecan/dronecan_dsdlc · GitHub

Make dronecan_dsdlc.py executrable for us on Linux systems

UTC2337 - generator/C: Don't parse messages outside CRC_EXTRA by julianoes · Pull Request #990 · ArduPilot/pymavlink · GitHub

Don’t parse messages outside CRC_EXTRA
Will this break the ability to pass through unknown messages?
Tridge thinks the current code will make a router which just passes on packets it doesn’t understand doesn’t a message will do bad things
- This PR does seem to fix that
- But implications in terms of passing on unknown packets?
Ck0 would probably mean this wouldn’t forward unknown packets correctly

UTC2352 - MAVCesium: Switch to newer fork by Ryanf55 · Pull Request #1480 · ArduPilot/MAVProxy · GitHub

Switch to mavcesium fork in ArduPilot
Merged!

UTC2354 - Add Mount RC failsafe handling by peterbarker · Pull Request #16251 · ArduPilot/ardupilot · GitHub

Add mount RC failsafe
Merged!

UTC0001 - AP_Logger: Add enum information to VER log message metadata by shancock884 · Pull Request #26308 · ArduPilot/ardupilot · GitHub

More code parsing in Python
So we can pull out more enumeration values from #define lists for the logger documentation
Merged!

UTC0011 - Foxeer H743v2 by andyp1per · Pull Request #26501 · ArduPilot/ardupilot · GitHub

New IMU on Foxeer
Merged!

UTC0012 - AP_Mission: do not use float functions on integers by peterbarker · Pull Request #27788 · ArduPilot/ardupilot · GitHub

Don’t use float functions on integers
Our sanity check for nan in missions probably needs to be inverted or go away as it makes adding meaning to parameters difficult

UTC0022 - Reduce overhead when doing SPI transactions by bugobliterator · Pull Request #28093 · ArduPilot/ardupilot · GitHub

Andy has reviewed and requested changes

UTC0024 - Correct initialiser ordering by peterbarker · Pull Request #28158 · ArduPilot/ardupilot · GitHub

Reordering initialiser lists
Adds compiler flag to lock this in
merged!

UTC0028 - Direct DMA transfer on Invensense v3 by andyp1per · Pull Request #28201 · ArduPilot/ardupilot · GitHub

Direct DMA transfer on Invensensev3
Merged!

UTC0036 - AP_GPS: Ignore Z-axis difference while dual GPS difference check by tomashmyh · Pull Request #28236 · ArduPilot/ardupilot · GitHub

If a GPS doesn’t provide an altitude then don’t include altitude in consistency checks
We should do something about fix-type-3D when alt is invalid
Want to understand the use case - why only a 2D fix coming in?
Do we really support 2D fixes?

UTC0052 - AP_DDS: Parameters service by PQuill33 · Pull Request #28298 · ArduPilot/ardupilot · GitHub

AP_DDS parameters service
Still no way to list parameters

A new failsafe option that considers all loops fulfilled

- Or a new mode number?
Or have scripts able to poll failsafe state
Failsafe type of scripting and then the script can get the data structure associated with it
