People generally have expressed a dislike for the Hungarian notation
used in member variables, especially in examples/templates, and our
styleguide shouldn't be forced on downstream consumers, so this removes
all Hungarian notation from the examples/templates.
There are _some_ benefits to Hungarian for private member variables
(like knowing what's a member vs. local in a PR review) so we'll keep
private member variables the same for now, but public variables should
no longer use Hungarian notation, since it looks much worse. A new PMD
XPath rule has been added to accomplish this goal. Some other
non-compliant variables were fixed for the new rule.
This removes the confusion of the `ExpansionHubServo` class serving both
purposes, and thus having a `set` method that functions as `setPosition`
when in servo mode and `setThrottle` when not in continuous mode. It
also removes the `setContinuousRotationMethod` which could be confused
for a method that switches the actual servo firmware itself from servo
to continuous mode, which is not a thing that is physically possible I
think.

Part of the `semiwrap` process that hasn't been ported over yet is
generating pyi stubs. It is possible to not have your semiwrap setup
correctly and "leak" native types into the generated python docstrings,
which causes the process to
[fail](https://github.com/pjreiniger/mostrobotpy/actions/runs/24618640845/job/71985311682#step:12:3652).
semiwrap also has a tool you can run, 'create-imports' that will read
the symbols from a build pybind library and automatically create and
sort the imports in the `__init__.py` file. This step is not enforced by
CI, which is why it hasn't been failing in `mostrobotpy` land.
This PR fixes the stubgen problems and runs reorganizes the imports. I
will have a follow up PR that can bring these automatically into the
build system after this lands. I'd do a fancy new `gh stack` but I can't
figure out if it works on forks.
The "Utility" name better matches its intended generic use case and
avoids overloaded terminology with unit testing (e.g. the need to name
the opmode annotation `@TestOpMode`).
The driver station will also be updated to reflect this change.
1. Make the OpMode interface itself periodic; this means the only
differences between `OpMode` and `PeriodicOpMode` are the latter's
methods to add sideloaded periodic callbacks
2. Make OpModeRobot process callbacks in a similar fashion to TimedRobot
and
3. Add some lifecycle functions (discussed below)
4. Pull the callback priority queue from TimedRobot to a new class
called `PeriodicPriorityQueue` so that `TimedRobot` and `OpModeRobot`
have less duplication
5. Fix a typo in the DriverStationJNI class that causes a memory leak
when certain driver station sim calls
6. Port the C++ OpModeRobot tests to Java
`OpModeRobot` now possesses some `IterativeRobotBase`-stye lifecycle
functions; these functions
1. `robotPeriodic`
2. `simulationInit` and `simulationPeriodic`
3. `disabledInit`, `disabledPeriodic`, and `disabledExit`
(note that `simulationInit` and `disabledInit` may be renamed to match
wpilibsuite#8719)
`OpModeRobot` also now processes `OpMode` changes (by the Driver
Station) in its `loopFunc` method, similar to
`IterativeRobotBase.loopFunc` processing game mode changes; `loopFunc`
is, similarly to `TimedRobot`, provided as a default `Callback`

Commands are no longer able to outlive their schedule-site's scope,
regardless of how they were scheduled (set as a default command, bound
to a trigger, or manually scheduled)
As a consequence, default commands need better tracking so the default
command setting can be released when their scope exits and the next-most
appropriate default command can be rescheduled (eg, an opmode sets a
default command, then the globally-scoped default is restored when the
opmode exits). Some complexity is required here to make it work well for
edge cases.
Like `schedule()`, `setDefaultCommand()` will immediately start the new
default command if called inside of another command to avoid 1-loop
delays. However, this does not apply when called by the _current_
default command, as it would result in attempting to cancel the default
command while it's mounted (which is impossible and would throw an
exception)
```java
class Robot extends OpModeRobot {
final Drive drive = new Drive();
final CommandXboxController controller = new CommandXboxController(1);
public Robot() {
// global default command, active unless overridden in an opmode or command
drive.setDefaultCommand(drive.stop());
// global trigger binding, always active
controller.rightBumper().onTrue(drive.setX());
}
}
@Teleop
class ExampleOpMode extends PeriodicOpMode {
public ExampleOpMode(Robot robot) {
// opmode-specific default command
robot.drive.setDefaultCommand(robot.drive.operatorControl(robot.controller));
// opmode-specific binding
robot.controller.leftBumper().whileTrue(robot.drive.stop());
// opmode-specific binding that takes precedence over the global binding
// because it happens last; it "wins out" over the `setX()` binding
robot.controller.rightBumper().onTrue(robot.drive.selfTest());
}
@Override
public void periodic() {
Scheduler.getDefault().run();
}
}
```
Since sched_setscheduler() requires non-RT priorities to be 0, we can
use that as a sentinel value for disabling RT and condense the Java API
to just two functions with fewer parameters. The thread priority setter
is deprecated since only experts should use it.
The HAL Notifier thread priority setter was replaced with setting the
priority in the thread itself.
The C++ Notifier non-RT and RT constructors were deduplicated.
The real-time scheduler was changed from SCHED_FIFO to SCHED_RR, which
is SCHED_FIFO with threads allowed to run for a maximum time quantum
before yielding (100 ms by default).
- Remove status return from HAL level (clock getting should never fail)
- Remove 32-bit timestamp expand function
- Make monotonic_clock.hpp (formerly fpga_clock.hpp) header-only and
move to root hal include directory
Makes Java `Alert.Level.ERROR`, `Alert.Level.WARNING`, and
`Alert.Level.INFO` proper aliases (instead of separate enum constants
with the same value).
Cleans up Python tests.
Makes the Alert tests more consistent between languages.
I left "free speed" alone since that's the technical term for it. In
general, velocity is a vector quantity, and speed is a magnitude (i.e.,
a strictly positive value).
This PR also replaces the speed verbiage in MotorController with duty
cycle.
Fixes#8423.
Linear OpModes have several major downsides with no obvious solutions:
- Some things stop working automatically--e.g. in a linear opmode,
simulation will not work out-of-the-box; the user must explicitly call
sim themselves. there's a few other things we do periodically, but this
is the big one (it also forces some decisions on other parts of the
library—eg if we want Tunable to work in linear without the user
manually calling refresh, we have to run it on a background thread,
which means it must be thread safe throughout). We can help in some
areas (e.g. have sleep functions call background things), but if the
user is writing a loop that waits to drive a certain distance with no
sleep, it's an easy footgun
- Writing code with no sleeps is easy to do, and can hog an entire
processing core easily--yes, there's more than one core, but it could
still easily impact e.g. vision processing
- Many people I've talked to want robot-level periodic and periodic sim
functions. Given linear opmodes, we have two options, neither of which
is great: (1) don't provide robot-level periodic functions, and the
users who want those must set those up themselves and remember to call
them explicitly from every periodic opmode, or (2) provide them, but
only call them automatically from periodic opmodes, which could be
confusing for linear opmode users (they'd have to call them manually if
they wanted them). Currently we do (1) but someone in the community
already opened a change to do (2).
- Restarting the robot program fixes the "stuck in auto for the rest of
the match" problem but still feels like an ugly hack because the startup
time is not unlikely to make the robot not immediately ready for teleop
Removing LinearOpMode resolves these issues by moving to a periodic-only
structure. We can address the few notable use cases of LinearOpMode
(e.g. very basic autonomous sequences) in other ways such as Blocks
generated code, better state machine tutorials/documentation, etc.
Easier then the last one that put everything in a sub namespace. By
prefixing the name less things break, and intellisense will be less
confusing to new users during the transition.
Resync with `mostrobotpy`
This mostly involves the big "ignore almost everything in the HAL
project" and some fixups for the Addressable LED classes.
Required two small hand fixes to get it building over here with bazel,
and with more compiler warnings on.
I also manually zeroed out the `repo_url` field in the toml files to
avoid unnecessary churn whenever it goes from a release build to a
development build. I already did this with `version` field in there, and
will do a follow up PR that updates the copybara script to do it
automatically.

This got missed in the reorg, and these values aren't actually used for
anything when building in `allwpilb`, but we might as well fix them here
to make the copybara process easier.
User code:
- OpModeRobot used as the robot base class
- LinearOpMode and PeriodicOpMode are provided opmode base classes
- In Java, annotations can be used to automatically register opmode classes
Additional user code functionality:
- OpMode (string) is available in addition to the overall
auto/teleop/test robot mode
- OpMode does not indicate enable (enable/disable is still separate)
- The HAL API uses integer UIDs; these are exposed at the user API level
as well for faster checks
- User code creates opmodes on startup (these have name, category,
description, etc).
DS:
- DS will present opmode selection lists for auto and teleop for
match/practice. During a match, the DS will automatically activate the
selected opmode in the corresponding match period.
- For testing, an overall mode is selected (e.g. teleop/auto/test) and a
single opmode is selected
Future work:
- Command framework support/integration
- Python annotation support
- Unit tests (needs race-free DS sim updates)
- Porting of examples

Adding an ack parameter to both set and cancel is cleaner than adding
all the set alarm parameters to the ack function. It also provides an
ack-and-cancel method.
It was possible for the alarm to fire between the set alarm and ack,
resulting in a hang on next wait. It's not possible to ack before set
alarm due to a race in sim step timing, so the fix is to provide an
atomic ack and set alarm; the easiest way to implement this in the API
was to change ack to optionally also set the alarm again.
This changes the HAL notifier interface to:
- Use wpiutil signal objects. This means waiting is done through the
`WPI_WaitObject` API instead of a dedicated function and allows for
higher level code to simultaneously wait on notifiers and other events.
- Interval timers are supported at the HAL layer
- Handlers are now required to acknowledge notifications. This is
invisible to users unless they're directly using the HAL API.
- For interval timers, an overrun count is maintained to detect if the
handler didn't acknowledge
The underlying implementation still uses condition variables for the
actual waiting. In basic testing using this approach seemed to be lower
jitter than timerfd.
Currently, the simulation and systemcore implementations are nearly
identical except for a few additional sim hook bits. This could be
refactored, but keeping them separate may make sense to keep the
systemcore implementation easy to read and reason about, or if we ever
choose to use a different underlying timer implementation on systemcore.
The simulation side API is unchanged in form but does change in
function--waiting for notifiers now only waits for currently running (or
newly signaled) notifiers to acknowledge. To avoid a race condition in
sim stepTiming, users of the low level API must make any alarm updates
(especially for one-shot alarms) prior to acknowledging the previous
alarm.
The only current use of the interval timer feature is the `Notifier`
class. The `TimedRobot` implementation still uses a single notifier and
its own interval timing logic to ensure consistent callback order. Using
separate notifiers for each user-level interval would substantially
increase complexity. `Watchdog` also doesn't use the interval timer, as
it's looking for an amount of time since the last `set` call rather than
a recurring interval time.
To reduce flicker, the sim GUI uses a fade out when a timeout goes from
set to unset.
This fixes tsan for wpilib and commands, and also fixes some spurious
test failures.
