rtps_writer now can be configured to simulate multiple endpoints. All
Testbenched were modified to reflect and test this change.
Packages were extended with array definitions.
Since the Type Specific user facing entities did not actually wrap the
DDS entities, but connected to them through port signals, a more
semantically correct name would be "interface", since they are the user
facing interface of the DDS entities.
ACK HANDLING
------------
If there are no remote reliable reader endpoints the new Cache Changes
are immediately ACKed/removed from the HC.
Internal Global ACK SN is set to SEQUENCENUMBER_UNKNOWN, and
only initialized on first reliable remote reader endpoint.
If all remote reliable reader endpints are unmatched the internal Global
ACK SN is set to SEQUENCENUMBER_UNKNOWN and all Cache Changes are
ACKed/removed from the HC.
PUSH MODE
---------
Historical DATA is no longer send on remote endpoint match, if PUSH mode
is FALSE.
TESTBENCH
---------
Level 1 Test2 of rtps_writer was split into 2 tests.
Until now the rtps_builtin_endpoint was using the last parsed Locator as
the Locator of choice.
The rtps_builtin_endpoint was extended with a PREFER_MULTICAST boolean
generic that allows to influence which locators are used.
Test1 of rtps_builtin_endpoint was split in two, to test both settings
of the generic.
Using seperately compiled Libraries we interconnect two systems, and
test their communication and interaction.
A bug in rtps_builtin_endpoint was fixed (were if only the SUB data was
to be sent, it was never actually sent).
Templates with the pre-defined code hull for the reader_wrapper,
writer_wrapper, and key_holder were created.
A "cookbook" of how to expand this TEMPLATES to create type specific IDL
conversions was also added.
The "code generation" is kept general to allow a code generator to
automatically produce this wrappers in the future.
The writer_wrapper was modified to allow changing the used endian via
generic. This allows to test Little Endian handling in simulations.
The Test2 are basically Test1 with Little Endian
By connecting the output of the writer_wrapper to the input of the
reader_wrapper we can effectively test the encoding/decoding.
Since the writer_wrapper only uses Big Endian we cannot test Little
Endian handling.
Backport Memory Controller and Memory FSM from RTPS/DDS Endpoints to
RTPS Builtin Endpoint.
The Memory is now using a single linked list and the FSM uses Frame Field
Flags.
The main FSM uses check_time to initiate stale checks, and the stale
checks are done in the main FSM.
Testbench was modified to accomodate the changes (Previous L0 Test4 was
removed and integrated in L0 Test 1).
The REMOVE_WRITER DDS Operation of DDS Reader now generates Samples if
the Instance State changes.
Updated testbench.
Added checks for DATA_AVAILABLE communication status.
Test Sample Rejected Status Handling.
Test GET_SAMPLE_REJECTED_STATUS DDS Operation.
Extend Sample Rejected Status Kind by REJECTED_BY_PAYLOAD_MEMORY_LIMIT
Test the DDS READ, TAKE, READ_NEXT_SAMPLE, TAKE_NEXT_SAMPLE,
READ_INSTANCE, TAKE_INSTANCE, READ_NEXT_INSTANCE, TAKE_NEXT_INSTANCE
Operations.
Backport fixes to previous testbenches.
Change handling of DISPOSE Samples of unknown Instances.
Test RTPS GET_MIN_SN, GET_MAX_SN, GET_CACHE_CHANGE, REMOVE_CACHE_CHANGE,
ACK_CACHE_CHANGE, and NACK_CACHE_CHANGE Operations.
Test DDS Register, Unregister, Write, Dispose, and Lookup Instance
Operations.
Each Entity that contains a memory will have an independent size
generic. The testbench was modified to accomodate different RAM memory
sizes. This in effect makes all Memory related stuff pre-entity
dependant. The rtps_test_package needs updated Frame Sizes for the Tests
to work properly.
The reader falgs (Expects In-line QoS, Expects Historical Data, Is Best
Effort) of the remote reader is transfered in the Metatraffic Endpoint
Match Frame.
The Level 1 rtps_builtin_endpoint test was also fixed.
