Client disconnection appears as a read of 0 bytes.
Without a test for this, dump1090 continues to poll that client forever.
Also, read() may return EWOULDBLOCK as well as EAGAIN
for "no data right now", so handle that.
I don't know if there is an equivalent Win32 bug here as the Win32
interfaces seem subtly different to vanilla POSIX.
The following test/break can probably be removed if Win32 needs
the same fix.
When replaying recordings, the read files are binary, so the file open
needs to reflect this so that spurious end of file characters aren't
misinterpreted.
For remotely received messages that have a mlat timestamp, we have no
useful way of turning that timestamp into a wallclock timestamp, so
don't try, or we'll just produce wildly wrong results (_days_ in error)
If a CPR message with an undetected error is received this can produce out-of-range results for latitude.
e.g. even latitude of 78000, odd latitude of 0 produces a latitude index j=35 and rlat0 = 213.
Release of COAA PlanePlotter MLAT and SMU support for RPi
ppup1090 now supports Ground Stations functions required for MLAT and
SMU operation. This is *ONLY* available for RPi and similar linux
hardware.
Also included are sample startup scripts for dump1090 only and
dump1090+ppup1090 together.
view1090 was using close to 100% CPU before, with the non-blocking
commits and the reconnection code. sleep a bit between loop iterations
to keep CPU usage low.
CPU usage with this addition was down to <1% in testing.
A few minor additions and bug fixes as detailed below
1) Additional command line option "--net-buffer <n>" to specify the TCP
output buffer size. Default is n=0, which is 64Kb. Specify a value of n
to increase the buffer size according to Size = 64Kb * 2^n, so an n of
1 = 128Kb, n=2 is 256Kb etc. n is limited to 7, so the max size is 8Mb.
This option may assist if you have a high number of aircraft being
received, and an unreliable network connection, or if the receiving end
can be busy for an extended time.
2) Bug fix in ppup1090 which prevented the uploading of valid
ModeA/Squawk codes
3) Bug fix per Markus Grab's commit.
Variable j points to the current location in the magnitude vector.
When decoding a message (MODES_PREAMBLE_US+msglen)*2 is added to j.
In the loop head j is increased by 1, so one value was skipped.
