1. MulticopterAttitudeControl模块简介

### Description
This implements the multicopter attitude controller. It takes attitude
setpoints (`vehicle_attitude_setpoint`) as inputs and outputs a rate setpoint.

The controller has a P loop for angular error

mc_att_control <command> [arguments...]
 Commands:
   start
     [vtol]      VTOL mode

   stop

   status        print status info

注：print_usage函数是具体对应实现。

class MulticopterAttitudeControl : public ModuleBase<MulticopterAttitudeControl>, public ModuleParams, public px4::WorkItem

注：MulticopterAttitudeControl模块采用了ModuleBase和WorkQueue设计。

2. 模块入口函数

2.1 主入口mc_att_control_main

同样继承了ModuleBase，由ModuleBase的main来完成模块入口。

mc_att_control_main
 └──> return MulticopterAttitudeControl::main(argc, argv)

2.2 自定义子命令custom_command

模块仅支持start/stop/status命令，不支持其他自定义命令。

MulticopterAttitudeControl::custom_command
 └──> return print_usage("unknown command");

3. MulticopterAttitudeControl模块重要函数

3.1 task_spawn

这里主要初始化了MulticopterAttitudeControl对象，后续通过WorkQueue来完成进行轮询。

MulticopterAttitudeControl::task_spawn
 ├──> bool vtol = false;
 ├──> <argc > 1><strcmp(argv[1], "vtol") == 0>
 │   └──> vtol = true;
 ├──> MulticopterAttitudeControl *instance = new MulticopterAttitudeControl(vtol)
 ├──> <instance>
 │   ├──> _object.store(instance)
 │   ├──> _task_id = task_id_is_work_queue
 │   └──> <instance->init()>
 │      └──> return PX4_OK
 ├──> <else>
 │   └──> PX4_ERR("alloc failed")
 ├──> delete instance
 ├──> _object.store(nullptr)
 ├──> _task_id = -1
 └──> return PX4_ERROR

3.2 instantiate

注：鉴于该模块不采用任务(线程)，所以ModuleBase::run_trampoline无需执行，所以可以不实现。

3.3 init

在task_spawn中使用，对_vehicle_attitude_sub成员变量进行事件回调注册(当有vehicle_attitude消息时，会调用SubscriptionCallbackWorkItem::ScheduleNow，再触发MulticopterAttitudeControl::Run过程)。

MulticopterAttitudeControl::init
 ├──> <!_vehicle_attitude_sub.registerCallback()>
 │   ├──> PX4_ERR("callback registration failed")
 │   └──> return false
 └──> return true

3.4 Run

根据设定和传感数据，计算飞行姿态。

4. 总结

具体逻辑业务后续再做深入，从模块代码角度:

• 输入

uORB::SubscriptionInterval _parameter_update_subORB_ID(parameter_update), 1_s;

uORB::Subscription _autotune_attitude_control_status_subORB_ID(autotune_attitude_control_status);
uORB::Subscription _manual_control_setpoint_subORB_ID(manual_control_setpoint);       /**< manual control setpoint subscription */
uORB::Subscription _vehicle_attitude_setpoint_subORB_ID(vehicle_attitude_setpoint);   /**< vehicle attitude setpoint subscription */
uORB::Subscription _vehicle_control_mode_subORB_ID(vehicle_control_mode);             /**< vehicle control mode subscription */
uORB::Subscription _vehicle_status_subORB_ID(vehicle_status);                         /**< vehicle status subscription */
uORB::Subscription _vehicle_land_detected_subORB_ID(vehicle_land_detected);           /**< vehicle land detected subscription */

uORB::SubscriptionCallbackWorkItem _vehicle_attitude_subthis, ORB_ID(vehicle_attitude);

• 输出

uORB::Publication<vehicle_rates_setpoint_s>     _vehicle_rates_setpoint_pubORB_ID(vehicle_rates_setpoint);    /**< rate setpoint publication */
uORB::Publication<vehicle_attitude_setpoint_s>  _vehicle_attitude_setpoint_pub;
