fmtlib uses consteval format string processing, which makes it more
efficient than std::snprintf().
snprintf()s in libuv, mpack, processstarter, and wpigui were left alone.
processstarter uses stdlib only, and wpigui only depends on imgui.
fmt::format_to_n() is analogous to std::format_to_n()
(https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/utility/format/format_to_n)
wpi::format_to_n_c_str() is a wrapper which adds the trailing NUL.
The current DS thread model has some pretty major issues. It makes it difficult to know if all data is from the same remote packet, and if the data changes while the robot loop is running. Additionally, the DS thread is used for a few other things (MotorSafety and State Tracking for EducationalRobot). This also makes sim difficult, as user code has to wait for the thread to know it has new data.
This change completely rethinks how threading works in the driver station model.
First, the DS HAL system receives a new data callback, either from Netcomm or DriverStationSim. Inside the context of this callback, all the low latency data is read and put into a cache. Doing some investigation on the robot side, this is perfectly safe to do, and also ensures a ds packet will not be parsed before we finish reading the current packet data.
After all data is read, the cache is swapped with a 2nd buffer. This buffer just stores the data, none of the HAL DS calls read from this buffer. An event is then fired, stating there is new data ready to go.
Robot code calls HAL_UpdateDSData(). This swaps the 2nd buffer with a 3rd buffer, which always contains the current data. This data will not be updated until HAL_UpdateDSData is called again. Which solves the state problem.
The high level driver station classes have. an updateData() call, which calls HAL_UpdateDSData, and then update button state variables, then data log and update the NT FMS data table (Java also caches across the JNI boundary here, but that could trivially be removed). An extra event provider is provided, allowing other threads to know when this call has been completed.
IterativeRobotBase calls DS.updateData() at the beginning of each loop, and only once per loop. This means all commands will always have the same state.
All of this means there is no longer a DS thread. Everything happens synchronously. This means Sim and testing is easier, as you can just call DriverStationSim.NotifyNewData(), and then DriverStation.UpdateData(), and you can guarantee that all the DriverStation.*** data is up to date.
As for Motor Safety and Educational Robot State Handling, those can all be handled by their own threads. The Educational Thread only needs to run under EducationalRobot, and MotorSafety will only be started if there is a motor safety object enabled.
Inconsistent names were found using the following regular expressions.
* `rg "TEST(_F|_P)?\(\w+,\s+\w+Test\)"`
* `rg "TEST(_F|_P)?\(\w+,\s+Test\w+\)"`
* `rg "TEST(_F|_P)?\(\w+Tests,\s+\w+\)"`
Fixes#3495.
In some cases, knowing roborio 2 might be useful. This also creates a higher level enum that might be usable later for the discussion on more complex runtime types.
* Add .clang-tidy configuration.
* A separate .clang-tidy is used for hal includes to suppress modernize-use-using
(as these are C headers).
* Add NOLINT where necessary for a clean run.
* Add clang-tidy job to lint-format workflow. This workflow is now only run on PRs.
To reduce runtime, clang-tidy is only run on files changed in the PR.
Two wpilibc changes; both are unlikely to break user code:
* BuiltInAccelerometer: Make SetRange() final
* Counter: Make SetMaxPeriod() final
After these cleanups, the only file that does not run cleanly is
cscore_raw_cv.h due to it not being standalone.
This allows disabling/enabling SimDevices via prefix matching. This can be
used to force devices that normally use SimDevice in simulation mode to
instead talk directly to the hardware as in normal operation.
Also move some things in HAL for consistency.
WAS:
C++:
- C APIs: #include "mockdata/AccelerometerData.h"
- User side class: #include "simulation/AccelerometerSim.h"
Java:
- JNI APIs: hal.sim.mockdata.AccelerometerData (and a few classes in hal.sim)
- User side classes: hal.sim.AccelerometerSim
IS:
C++:
- C APIs: #include "hal/simulation/AccelerometerData.h"
- C++ class: #include "frc/simulation/AccelerometerSim.h"
Java:
- JNI APIs: hal.simulation.AccelerometerData
- User side class: wpilibj.simulation.AccelerometerSim
The old headers were moved into folders because doing so avoids polluting
the system include directories.
Folder names were also normalized to lowercase.
Also switch eventName and gameSpecificData to fixed 64-byte arrays to avoid mallocs and
extra NetComm calls. This behavior matches 2018 LabView.
The DS caching is kept in Java to avoid JNI and/or massive amounts of allocations.
This does not increase latency because Java still only hits NetComm once.
Moving the DS caching benefits all languages other than Java, because it avoids the need
for individual implementations. If caching is ever added to NetComm, it will then only be
necessary to remove it from the HAL and Java rather than all languages.
Also adds function that can register all the callbacks at once.
Since all of the callbacks issue a string identifier, it makes it
possible and easy to have one function callback, and differentiate the
path to take based on the string. Hooking up all the callbacks at once
makes it easier for the simulator developer to know when something was
added to wpilib rather than looking at the commits.
