The format is based on Keep a Changelog and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

[unreleased]

Fixes

• FreshDeviceHandlerBase did not initialize the fdirInstance
• The PusTmCreator API only accepted 255 bytes of source data. It can now accept source data with a size limited only by the size of size_t.
• Important bugfix in CFDP PDU header format: The entity length field and the transaction sequence number fields stored the actual length of the field instead of the length minus 1 like specified in the CFDP standard.
• PUS Health Service: Size check for set health command. Perform operation completion for announce health command. fsfw/fsfw#746
• Linux OSAL getUptime fix: Check validity of /proc/uptime file before reading uptime. fsfw/fsfw#745
• Small tweak for version getter fsfw/fsfw#744

Added

• add CFDP subsystem ID fsfw/fsfw#742
• PusTmZcWriter now exposes API to set message counter field.
• Relative timeshift in the PUS time service.
• CFDP support for PDU checksums

Changed

• Complete overhaul of HK subsystem. Replaced local data pool manager by periodic HK helper. The shared pool and the periodic HK generation are now distinct concepts.
• The local HK manager was replaced by a periodic HK helper which has reduced responsibilities. It takes care of tracking the HK generation using a set specification provided by the user.n However, it leaves serialization of the HK data completely to the developer. This removes a major constraint on the format of the HK data, which was previously constrained to implementors of a certain base class.
• The former set classes and pool objects are still available for HK set specification and generation. The API has changed, but the general usage and their architecture has not.
• A new set of set classes and helper objects to specify HK sets and data which does not need to be shared was added as well. The majority of datasets do not need to be shared anyway.
• The non-shared API retain the capability of appending of a validity blob for each piece of set data at the end of the HK data. For both non-shared and shared data, this capability can be specified in the constructor, and defaults to true.
• Improved File System Abstraction to be more in line with normal filesystems.
• CFDP implementation was improved, has now even less dependencies on other FSFW components and allows one inserted packet per state machine call.
• The PUS time service now dumps the time before setting a new time and after having set the time.
• HK generation is now countdown based.
• Bump ETL version to 20.35.14 fsfw/fsfw#748
• Renamed PCDU_2 subsystem ID to POWER_SWITCH_IF. fsfw/fsfw#743
• Add new PowerSwitchIF::SWITCH_UNKNOWN returnvalue. fsfw/fsfw#743
• Assert that FixedArrayList is larger than 0 at compile time. fsfw/fsfw#740
• Health functions are virtual now.
• PUS Service Base request queue depth and maximum number of handled packets per cycle is now configurable.
• Switched to vendored versions for both the Embedded Template Library (ETL) and the Catch2 unittesting library.

Added

• EventManager: Add function to print all listeners.

Changed

• EventManager: Queue depth is configurable now

• Internal API change: Moved the fsfw_hal to the src folder and integration and internal tests part of fsfw_tests to src. Unittests are now in a dedicated folder called unittests PR: fsfw/fsfw#653

Task Module Refactoring

PR: fsfw/fsfw#636

Refactoring general task code

• There was a lot of duplicate/boilerplate code inside the individual task IF OSAL implementations. Remove it by introducing base classes PeriodicTaskBase and FixedTimeslotTaskBase.

Refactor PeriodicTaskIF

• Convert virtual ReturnValue_t addComponent(object_id_t object) to virtual ReturnValue_t addComponent(object_id_t object, uint8_t opCode = 0), allowing to pass the operation code passed to performOperation. Updated API taking an ExecutableObjectIF accordingly

Refactor FixedTimeslotTaskIF

• Add additional addSlot function which takes an ExecutableObjectIF pointer and its Object ID

Refactor FixedSequenceSlot

• Introduce typedef CustomCheckFunc for ReturnValue_t (*customCheckFunction)(const SlotList&).
• Convert ReturnValue_t (*customCheckFunction)(const SlotList&) to ReturnValue_t (*customCheckFunction)(const SlotList&, void*), allowing arbitrary user arguments for the custom checker

Linux Task Module

• Use composition instead of inheritance for the PeriodicPosixTask and make the PosixTask a member of the class

HAL

• HAL Linux Uart: Baudrate and bits per word are enums now, avoiding misconfigurations PR: fsfw/fsfw#585
• HAL Linux SPI: Set the Clock Default State when setting new SPI speed and mode PR: fsfw/fsfw#573
• GPIO HAL: Direction, GpioOperation and Levels are enum classes now, which prevents name clashes with Windows defines. PR: fsfw/fsfw#572
• HAL Linux Uart: Baudrate and bits per word are enums now, avoiding misconfigurations PR: fsfw/fsfw#585

Time

PR: fsfw/fsfw#584 and fsfw/fsfw#593

• timeval to TimeOfDay_t
• Added Mutex for gmtime calls: (compare http://www.opengate.at/blog/2020/01/timeless/)
• Moved the statics used by Clock in ClockCommon.cpp to this file
• Better check for leap seconds
• Added Unittests for Clock (only getter)

Power

• PowerSwitchIF: Remove const specifier from sendSwitchCommand and sendFuseOnCommand and also specify a ReturnValue_t return type PR: fsfw/fsfw#590
• Extend PowerSwitcher module to optionally check current state when calling turnOn or turnOff. Tis can be helpful to avoid commanding switches which do not need commanding PR: fsfw/fsfw#590

Removed

• Removed the HkSwitchHelper. This module should not be needed anymore, now that the local datapools have been implemented. PR: fsfw/fsfw#557

Additions

• New constructor for PoolEntry which allows to simply specify the length of the pool entry. This is also the new default constructor for scalar value with 0 as an initial value
• Added options for CI/CD builds: FSFW_CICD_BUILD. This allows the source code to know whether it is running in CI/CD PR: fsfw/fsfw#623
• Basic clion support: Update .gitignore and add some basic run configurations PR: fsfw/fsfw#625
• LTO support: Allow using LTO/IPO by setting FSFW_ENABLE_LTO=1. CMake is able to detect whether the user compiler supports IPO/LPO. LTO is on by default now. Most modern compilers support it, can make good use of it and it usually makes the code faster and/or smaller. After some more research: Enabling LTO will actually cause the compiler to only produce thin LTO by adding -flto -fno-fat-lto-objects to the compiler options. I am not sure this is an ideal choice because if an application linking against the FSFW does not use LTO, there can be compile issues (e.g. observed when compiling the FSFW tests without LTO). This is a known issue as can be seen in the multiple CMake issues for it:
  • https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues/22913,
  • https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues/16808,
  • https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues/21696 Easiest solution for now: Keep this option OFF by default. PR: fsfw/fsfw#616
• Linux HAL: Add wiretapping option for I2C. Enabled with FSFW_HAL_I2C_WIRETAPPING defined to 1
• Dedicated Version class and constant fsfw::FSFW_VERSION containing version information inside fsfw/version.h PR: fsfw/fsfw#559
• Added generic PUS TC Scheduler Service 11. It depends on the new added Emebeded Template Library (ETL) dependency. PR: fsfw/fsfw#594
• Added ETL dependency and improved library dependency management PR: fsfw/fsfw#592
• Add a DummyPowerSwitcher module which can be useful for test setups when no PCDU is available PR: fsfw/fsfw#590
• New typedef for switcher type PR: fsfw/fsfw#590
• Subsystem: New API to add table and sequence entries

Fixed

Milestone: https://egit.irs.uni-stuttgart.de/fsfw/fsfw/milestone/5

[v1.2.0]

API Changes

FSFW Architecture

• New src folder which contains all source files except the HAL, contributed code and test code
• External and internal API mostly stayed the same
• Folder names are now all smaller case: internalError was renamed to internalerror and FreeRTOS was renamed to freertos
• Warning if optional headers are used but the modules was not added to the source files to compile

HAL

• HAL added back into FSFW. It is tightly bound to the FSFW, and compiling it as a static library made using it more complicated than necessary

Bugfixes

FreeRTOS QueueMapManager

• Fixed a bug which causes the first generated Queue ID to be invalid

Enhancements

FSFW Architecture

• See API changes chapter. This change will keep the internal API consistent in the future

[v1.1.0]

API Changes

PUS

• Added PUS C support
• SUBSYSTEM_IDs added for PUS Services
• Added new Parameter which must be defined in config: fsfwconfig::FSFW_MAX_TM_PACKET_SIZE

ObjectManager

• ObjectManager is now a singelton

Configuration

• Additional configuration option fsfwconfig::FSFW_MAX_TM_PACKET_SIZE which need to be specified in FSFWConfig.h

CMake

• Changed Cmake FSFW_ADDITIONAL_INC_PATH to FSFW_ADDITIONAL_INC_PATHS

Bugfixes

• timemanager/TimeStamperIF.h: Timestamp config was not used correctly, leading to different timestamp sizes than configured in fsfwconfig::FSFW_MISSION_TIMESTAMP_SIZE
• TCP server fixes

Enhancements

FreeRTOS Queue Handles

• Fixed an internal issue how FreeRTOS MessageQueues were handled

Linux OSAL

• Better printf error messages

CMake

• Check for C++11 as mininimum required Version

Debug Output

• Changed Warning color to magenta, which is well readable on both dark and light mode IDEs

Changes from ASTP 0.0.1 to 1.0.0

Host OSAL

• Bugfix in MessageQueue, which caused the sender not to be set properly

FreeRTOS OSAL

• vRequestContextSwitchFromISR is declared extern "C" so it can be defined in a C file without issues

PUS Services

• It is now possible to change the message queue depth for the telecommand verification service (PUS1)
• The same is possible for the event reporting service (PUS5)
• PUS Health Service added, which allows to command and retrieve health via PUS packets

EnhancedControllerBase

• New base class for a controller which also implements HasActionsIF and HasLocalDataPoolIF

Local Pool

• Interface of LocalPools has changed. LocalPool is not a template anymore. Instead the size and bucket number of the pools per page and the number of pages are passed to the ctor instead of two ctor arguments and a template parameter

Parameter Service

• The API of the parameter service has been changed to prevent inconsistencies between documentation and actual code and to clarify usage.
• The parameter ID now consists of:
  1. Domain ID (1 byte)
  2. Unique Identifier (1 byte)
  3. Linear Index (2 bytes) The linear index can be used for arrays as well as matrices. The parameter load command now explicitely expects the ECSS PTC and PFC information as well as the rows and column number. Rows and column will default to one, which is equivalent to one scalar parameter (the most important use-case)

File System Interface

• A new interfaces specifies the functions for a software object which exposes the file system of a given hardware to use message based file handling (e.g. PUS commanding)

Internal Error Reporter

• The new internal error reporter uses the local data pools. The pool IDs for the exisiting three error values and the new error set will be hardcoded for now, the the constructor for the internal error reporter just takes an object ID for now.

Device Handler Base

• There is an additional PERFORM_OPERATION step for the device handler base. It is important that DHB users adapt their polling sequence tables to perform this step. This steps allows for a clear distinction between operation and communication steps
• setNormalDatapoolEntriesInvalid is not an abstract method and a default implementation was provided
• getTransitionDelayMs is now an abstract method

DeviceHandlerIF

• Typo for UNKNOWN_DEVICE_REPLY

Events

• makeEvent function: Now takes three input parameters instead of two and allows setting a unique ID. Event.cpp source file removed, functions now defined in header directly. Namespaces renamed. Functions declared constexpr now

Commanding Service Base

• CSB uses the new fsfwconfig::FSFW_CSB_FIFO_DEPTH variable to determine the FIFO depth for each CSB instance. This variable has to be set in the FSFWConfig.h file

Service Interface

• Proper printf support contained in ServiceInterfacePrinter.h
• CPP ostream support now optional (can reduce executable size by 150 - 250 kB)
• Amalagated header which determines automatically which service interface to use depending on FSFWConfig.h configuration. Users can just use #include <fsfw/serviceinterface/ServiceInterface.h>
• If CPP streams are excluded, sif:: calls won't work anymore and need to be replaced by their printf counterparts. For the fsfw, this can be done by checking the processor define FSFW_CPP_OSTREAM_ENABLED from FSFWConfig.h. For mission code, developers need to replace sif:: calls by the printf counterparts, but only if the CPP stream are excluded. If this is not the case, everything should work as usual.

ActionHelper and ActionMessage

• ActionHelper finish function and ActionMessage::setCompletionReply now expects explicit information whether to report a success or failure message instead of deriving it implicitely from returnvalue

PUS Parameter Service 20

Added PUS parameter service 20 (only custom subservices available).
