This PR gives the Notifier HAL thread RT priority 40 in RobotBase after
HAL initialization and before the user code is run. This drastically
improves scheduling jitter for TimedRobot's AddPeriodic() functions (in
3512's experience).
It's too risky to set user code as RT because badly behaved code
will lock up the Rio (potentially requiring safe mode to recover).
This needs the user program to be setuid admin to succeed.
- Twine, StringRef, Format, and NativeFormatting have been removed
- Logging now uses fmtlib style formatting
- Nearly all uses of wpi::outs/errs have been replaced with fmt::print() or
std::puts()/std::fputs() (for unformatted strings).
- A wpi/fmt/raw_ostream.h header has been added to enable
fmt::print() with wpi::raw_ostream
This makes code easier to read and more consistent between C++ and Java.
Also update clang-format settings to always add a line break (even if no braces are used).
This is a breaking change to the WebSockets layer to align it with
recent specification documentation work.
To support this, HAL SimValue changed readonly to a direction enum.
This allows specifying bidirectional in addition to input and output.
The SimValue change is specifically designed to avoid API and ABI breakage.
This is completely transparent in C++; in Java a new callback class was added,
and the old readonly functions have been marked deprecated.
A new SimValue creation function for enums allows specifying double values
for each enum value, not just strings. This allows mapping enum values to
doubles in the WebSockets layer.
A ":" in the SimDevice name now maps it to different WebSocket types (e.g.
"Accel:Name" becomes type "Accel", device "Name"). The type is hidden
in the GUI.
Other WebSockets changes:
* Implemented match_time and game_data
* Added joystick rumble data
* Added builtin accelerometer support
* SimValue enums are mapped to string and double value on WS interface
* Added WebSockets protocol specification
* Added READMEs
Based on run of include-what-you-use.org to identify unused include files in various .h and .cpp files.
The changes mostly fall into 3 categories:
- Actually unused includes - copy-paste errors, not removing includes after cleaning up code, etc
- A too-broad include used where a more specific (and hopefully smaller) header will do
- Interface .h files including headers only needed by the .cpp implementation - moving from .h to .cpp
will mean that code which uses the .h doesn't pay the price of processing the header file they don't need
Old behavior is available via StepTimingAsync.
This makes it significantly easier to use simulation timing with notifiers.
Also update tests to use simulation framework. This also speeds up the
timing-dependent tests by using simulation timing. ResourceLock is used
in the Java tests to prevent parallel execution.
While we're here, tweak HAL Notifier implementation:
- Use wait_for instead of wait_until in WaitForNotifierAlarm
- Check for triggerTime = UINT64_MAX in UpdateNotifierAlarm
This makes it much more user-friendly to use simulation classes without needing
to ifdef for C++ to avoid linker errors or be very careful about construction
to avoid runtime errors in Java.
This allows high-level library classes to implement enhanced simulation
support even if no low-level corresponding simulation library exists, and
avoids the need for bit-banging complex interfaces like SPI or CAN.
