Release Apollo-Sojus-Test-Project (ASTP) 0.0.1

100%

As requested by users, this release will be the only one with the global pools.

This release can be seen as a legacy release. Therefore, it should not be used by the users on a long term. The intention is the creation of a baseline for further API changes.

The next release will contain the local pools which will introduce API changes for every user.

The name remembers the relation to the Flying Laptop Flight Software which uses numbers of Apollo Mission as major Software release names.

ASTP 1.0.0 Local pools

100%

API Changes:

Local Pools:

Pool Managers

Old pool config:

    const uint8_t numberOfIpcPools = 4;
    uint16_t numberOfElements[numberOfIpcPools] = {100, 30, 20, 10};
    uint16_t sizeofElements[numberOfIpcPools] = {32, 64, 128, 265};
    new PoolManager<numberOfIpcPools>(objects::IPC_STORE,sizeofElements,
            numberOfElements);

New pool config:

/* Pool manager handles storage und mutexes */
const LocalPool::LocalPoolConfig poolConfig = {
		{100, 32}, {30, 64}, {20, 128}, {10, 265}
};
new PoolManager(objects::IPC_STORE, poolConfig);
new PoolManager(objects::TM_STORE, poolConfig);
new PoolManager(objects::TC_STORE, poolConfig);

ParameterIF:

INVALID_MATRIX_ID is now INVALID_IDENTIFIER_ID (#250)
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 explicitly 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)
The HasParameterIF has changed, ParameterId is now a uint8_t and the name is uniqueIdentifier (#365)

DeviceHandler

DHB has an additional PST Step. This has to be added to your Polling Sequence but gives more control over the DH (#281)
Typo for UNKNOWN_DEVICE_REPLY fixed (#320)
getTransitionDelayMs is now an abstract method (#320)

Events:

Changes in eventId generation (#288)
- The spelling of the namespaces "EVENT" and "SEVERITY" changed to "event" and "severity"
- The function to generate a EventId (makeEvent(..)) is more explicit now with the Id as new parameter. This should be preferred over the macro.

Pus Sercices:

Service 5 and Service 1 queue depths need to be given as constructor elements (#283)
- This allows mission code to select how many events/verification messages can be processed
All Commanding Service Base instances had a 3 command wide fifo, this can now be changed to any size (#319)
VerificationCodes namespace TC_VERIFY is now tc_verification (#309)

static constexpr uint8_t FSFW_CSB_FIFO_DEPTH = 6;

FreeRTOS:

extern "C" void vRequestContextSwitchFromISR(); marked extern C so it can be implemented in a C file. (#263)

RTEMS:

RTEMS OSAL Updated after tests (#363)

Mutex:

MutexHelper is now MutexGuard (#383)

Action:

ActionMessage::setCompletionReply now expects the success as dedicated bool

MISC:

CCSDSTime.cpp now uses size_t for sizes #315
FSFWConfig: USE_MODESTORE for storage of on-the-fly modes is replaced with FSFW_USE_MODESTORE == 1 from FSFWConfig.h (#306)

Enhancement:

Pus Sercices:

Added Health Service (#282)
Added Hk service (#311)
Pus Service 20 (Parameter Service) added (#365)

CMake

FSFW Provides cmake files now (#298)

Misc

ExtendedController: Controller with HasActionIF has HasLocalDatapoolIF. (#276)
DeviceHandlerIF: Command_t NO_COMMAND_ID in DeviceHandlerIF can be used to set a invalid command (#263)
Default CFG: Update of Default CFG (#274)
PeriodicOperationDivider: Op divider additional features (#286)
unittest: Includes for unittest folder relative (#285)
objectmanager: objectmanager/frameworkObjects.h new ID added TIME_STAMPER = 0x53500010 (#328)

Bug Fixes:

HostOSAL:

Host OSAL MessageQueue Hotfix (#297)
Host OSAL bugfixes (#289)

RTEMS:

Clock::getDateAndTime conversion corrected #344
Important Bug fix in MesseQueue.cpp #395

Linux:

Important Bug fix in MesseQueue.cpp #394

MISC:

Bugfixes discovered during coverity checks #398

PR: #591
Added ETL dependency and improved library dependency management
PR: #592
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: #616
Added generic PUS TC Scheduler Service 11. It depends on the new added Emebeded Template Library
(ETL) dependency.
PR: #594
Added options for CI/CD builds: FSFW_CICD_BUILD. This allows the source code to know
whether it is running in CI/CD
PR: #623
Basic clion support: Update .gitignore and add some basic run configurations
PR: #625

HAL additions

Linux HAL: Add I2C wiretapping option. It is now possible to define FSFW_HAL_I2C_WIRETAPPING to 1 and have a printout of all Data received over I2C
PR: #559
HAL GPIO: Direction, GpioOperation and Levels are enum classes now, which prevents
name clashes with Windows defines.
PR: #572

Bump C++ required version to C++17. Every project which uses the FSFW and every modern
compiler supports it
PR: #622
Major update for version handling, using git describe to fetch version information with git.
PR: #601
- Add helper functions provided by cmake-modules
  manually now. Those should not change too often and only a small subset is needed
- Separate folder for easier update and for distinction
- LICENSE file included
- use int for version numbers to allow unset or uninitialized version
- Initialize Version object with numbers set to -1
- Instead of hardcoding the git hash, it is now retrieved from git
- Version now allows specifying additional version information like the git SHA1 hash and the
  versions since the last tag
- Additional information is set to the last part of the git describe output for FSFW_VERSION now.
- Version still need to be hand-updated if the FSFW is not included as a submodule for 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: #653

Task Module Refactoring

PR: #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

Bugfix

A small error in the README.md was fixed
PR: #562
Updated TestDeviceHandler to use FSFW_VERBOSE_LEVEL

PR: #585
DeviceHandlerBase::insertInCommandMap has two new optional parameters:

  PR: #595
Time/Clock:
- Implemented timeval to TimeOfDay_t but moved from CCSDSTime::convertTimevalToTimeOfDay to Clock::convertTimevalToTimeOfDay
