grbl-LPC-CoreXY/archive/stepper_time.c
Sonny Jeon b36e30de2e Yet another major stepper algorithm and planner overhaul. 
- Overhauled the stepper algorithm and planner again. This time
concentrating on the decoupling of the stepper ISR completely. It is
now dumb, relying on the segment generator to provide the number of
steps to execute and how fast it needs to go. This freed up lots of
memory as well because it made a lot tracked variables obsolete.

- The segment generator now computes the velocity profile of the
executing planner block on the fly in floating point math, instead of
allowing the stepper algorithm to govern accelerations in the previous
code. What this accomplishes is the ability and framework to (somewhat)
easily install a different physics model for generating a velocity
profile, i.e. s-curves.

- Made some more planner enhancements and increased efficiency a bit.

- The changes also did not increase the compiled size of Grbl, but
decreased it slightly as well.

- Cleaned up a lot of the commenting.

- Still much to do, but this push works and still is missing feedholds
(coming next.)

/* "The Stepper Driver Interrupt" - This timer interrupt is the workhorse of Grbl. It is based
on an inverse time stepper algorithm, where a timer ticks at a constant frequency and uses
time-distance counters to track when its the approximate time for a step event. For reference,
a similar inverse-time algorithm by Pramod Ranade is susceptible to numerical round-off, as
described, meaning that some axes steps may not execute correctly for a given multi-axis motion.
Grbl's algorithm differs by using a single inverse time-distance counter to manage a
Bresenham line algorithm for multi-axis step events, which ensures the number of steps for
each axis are executed exactly. In other words, Grbl uses a Bresenham within a Bresenham
algorithm, where one tracks time for step events and the other steps for multi-axis moves.
Grbl specifically uses the Bresenham algorithm due to its innate mathematical exactness and
low computational overhead, requiring simple integer +,- counters only.
This interrupt pops blocks from the step segment buffer and executes them by pulsing the
stepper pins appropriately. It is supported by The Stepper Port Reset Interrupt which it uses
to reset the stepper port after each pulse. The bresenham line tracer algorithm controls all
three stepper outputs simultaneously with these two interrupts.

/* TODO:
- Measure time in ISR. Typical and worst-case. Should be virtually identical to last algorithm.
There are no major changes to the base operations of this ISR with the new segment buffer.
- Write how the acceleration counters work and why they are set at half via mid-point rule.
- Determine if placing the position counters elsewhere (or change them to 8-bit variables that
are added to the system position counters at the end of a segment) frees up cycles.
- Write a blurb about how the acceleration should be handled within the ISR. All of the
time/step/ramp counters accurately keep track of the remainders and phasing of the variables
with time. This means we do not have to compute them via expensive floating point beforehand.
- Need to do an analysis to determine if these counters are really that much cheaper. At least
find out when it isn't anymore. Particularly when the ISR is at a very high frequency.
- Create NOTE: to describe that the total time in this ISR must be less than the ISR frequency
in its worst case scenario.

/* Prepares step segment buffer. Continuously called from main program.
The segment buffer is an intermediary buffer interface between the execution of steps
by the stepper algorithm and the velocity profiles generated by the planner. The stepper
algorithm only executes steps within the segment buffer and is filled by the main program
when steps are "checked-out" from the first block in the planner buffer. This keeps the
step execution and planning optimization processes atomic and protected from each other.
The number of steps "checked-out" from the planner buffer and the number of segments in
the segment buffer is sized and computed such that no operation in the main program takes
longer than the time it takes the stepper algorithm to empty it before refilling it.
Currently, the segment buffer conservatively holds roughly up to 40-60 msec of steps.
NOTE: The segment buffer executes a set number of steps over an approximate time period.
If we try to execute over a fixed time period, it is difficult to guarantee or predict
how many steps will execute over it, especially when the step pulse phasing between the
neighboring segments must also be kept consistent. Meaning that, if the last segment step
pulses right before a segment end, the next segment must delay its first pulse so that the
step pulses are consistently spaced apart over time to keep the step pulse train nice and
smooth. Keeping track of phasing and ensuring that the exact number of steps are executed
as defined by the planner block, the related computational overhead can get quickly and
prohibitively expensive, especially in real-time.
Since the stepper algorithm automatically takes care of the step pulse phasing with
its ramp and inverse time counters by retaining the count remainders, we don't have to
explicitly and expensively track and synchronize the exact number of steps, time, and
phasing of steps. All we need to do is approximate the number of steps in each segment
such that the segment buffer has enough execution time for the main program to do what
it needs to do and refill it when it comes back. In other words, we just need to compute
a cheap approximation of the current velocity and the number of steps over it.
*/
/*
TODO: Figure out how to enforce a deceleration when a feedrate override is reduced.
The problem is that when an override is reduced, the planner may not plan back to
the current rate. Meaning that the velocity profiles for certain conditions no longer
are trapezoidal or triangular. For example, if the current block is cruising at a
nominal rate and the feedrate override is reduced, the new nominal rate will now be
lower. The velocity profile must first decelerate to the new nominal rate and then
follow on the new plan. So the remaining velocity profile will have a decelerate,
cruise, and another decelerate.
Another issue is whether or not a feedrate override reduction causes a deceleration
that acts over several planner blocks. For example, say that the plan is already
heavily decelerating throughout it, reducing the feedrate will not do much to it. So,
how do we determine when to resume the new plan? How many blocks do we have to wait
until the new plan intersects with the deceleration curve? One plus though, the
deceleration will never be more than the number of blocks in the entire planner buffer,
but it theoretically can be equal to it when all planner blocks are decelerating already.
