Revision 7f453c24b95a085fc7bd35d53b33abc4dc5a048b authored by Peter Zijlstra on 21 July 2009, 11:19:40 UTC, committed by Peter Zijlstra on 22 July 2009, 16:05:56 UTC
Anton noted that for inherited counters the counter-id as provided by PERF_SAMPLE_ID isn't mappable to the id found through PERF_RECORD_ID because each inherited counter gets its own id. His suggestion was to always return the parent counter id, since that is the primary counter id as exposed. However, these inherited counters have a unique identifier so that events like PERF_EVENT_PERIOD and PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE can be specific about which counter gets modified, which is important when trying to normalize the sample streams. This patch removes PERF_EVENT_PERIOD in favour of PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD, which is more useful anyway, since changing periods became a lot more common than initially thought -- rendering PERF_EVENT_PERIOD the less useful solution (also, PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD reports the more accurate value, since it reports the value used to trigger the overflow, whereas PERF_EVENT_PERIOD simply reports the requested period changed, which might only take effect on the next cycle). This still leaves us PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE to consider, but since that _should_ be a rare occurrence, and linking it to a primary id is the most useful bit to diagnose the problem, we introduce a PERF_SAMPLE_STREAM_ID, for those few cases where the full reconstruction is important.

Walkera WK-0701 transmitter is supplied with a ready to fly Walkera
helicopters such as HM36, HM37, HM60. The walkera0701 module enables to use
this transmitter as joystick

Connecting to PC:
At back side of transmitter S-video connector can be found. Modulation
pulses from processor to HF part can be found at pin 2 of this connector,
pin 3 is GND. Between pin 3 and CPU 5k6 resistor can be found. To get
modulation pulses to PC, signal pulses must be amplified.
Cable: (walkera TX to parport)

I use green LED and BC109 NPN transistor.
Software:
Build kernel with walkera0701 module. Module walkera0701 need exclusive
access to parport, modules like lp must be unloaded before loading
walkera0701 module, check dmesg for error messages. Connect TX to PC by
cable and run jstest /dev/input/js0 to see values from TX. If no value can
be changed by TX "joystick", check output from /proc/interrupts. Value for
(usually irq7) parport must increase if TX is on.
Technical details:
Driver use interrupt from parport ACK input bit to measure pulse length
using hrtimers.

24 bin+oct values + 1 bin value = 24*4+1 bits = 97 bits
(Warning, pulses on ACK ar inverted by transistor, irq is rised up on sync
to bin change or octal value to bin change).
Binary data representations:
One binary and octal value can be grouped to nibble. 24 nibbles + one binary
values can be sampled between sync pulses.
Values for first four channels (analog joystick values) can be found in
first 10 nibbles. Analog value is represented by one sign bit and 9 bit
absolute binary value. (10 bits per channel). Next nibble is checksum for
first ten nibbles.
Next nibbles 12 .. 21 represents four channels (not all channels can be
directly controlled from TX). Binary representations ar the same as in first
four channels. In nibbles 22 and 23 is a special magic number. Nibble 24 is
checksum for nibbles 12..23.
After last octal value for nibble 24 and next sync pulse one additional
binary value can be sampled. This bit and magic number is not used in
software driver. Some details about this magic numbers can be found in
Walkera_Wk-0701_PCM.pdf.
Checksum calculation:
Summary of octal values in nibbles must be same as octal value in checksum
nibble (only first 3 bits are used). Binary value for checksum nibble is
calculated by sum of binary values in checked nibbles + sum of octal values
in checked nibbles divided by 8. Only bit 0 of this sum is used.
