# MAVLink通讯
|
||||
|
||||
[MAVLink](https://mavlink.io/en/) is a very lightweight messaging protocol that has been designed for the drone ecosystem.
|
||||
|
||||
PX4 uses _MAVLink_ to communicate with ground stations and MAVLink SDKs, such as _QGroundControl_ and [MAVSDK](https://mavsdk.mavlink.io/), and as the integration mechanism for connecting to drone components outside of the flight controller: companion computers, MAVLink enabled cameras, and so on.
|
||||
|
||||
This topic provides a brief overview of fundamental MAVLink concepts, such as messages, commands, and microservices.
|
||||
It also links instructions for how you can add PX4 support for:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Adding Standard Messages](../mavlink/adding_messages.md)
|
||||
- [Streaming MAVLink messages](../mavlink/streaming_messages.md)
|
||||
- [Handling incoming MAVLink messages (and writing to a uORB topic)](../mavlink/receiving_messages.md)

## MAVLink Overview
|
||||
|
||||
MAVLink is a lightweight protocol that was designed for efficiently sending messages over unreliable low-bandwidth radio links.
|
||||
|
||||
_Messages_ are simplest and most "fundamental" definition in MAVLink, consisting of a name (e.g. [ATTITUDE](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#ATTITUDE)), id, and fields containing relevant data.
|
||||
They are deliberately lightweight, with a constrained size, and no semantics for resending and acknowledgement.
|
||||
Stand-alone messages are commonly used for streaming telemetry or status information, and for sending commands where no acknowledgement is required - such as setpoint commands sent at high rate.
|
||||
|
||||
The [Command Protocol](https://mavlink.io/en/services/command.html) is a higher level protocol for sending commands that may need acknowledgement.
|
||||
Specific commands are defined as values of the [MAV_CMD](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#mav_commands) enumeration, such as the takeoff command [MAV_CMD_NAV_TAKEOFF](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#MAV_CMD_NAV_TAKEOFF), and include up to 7 numeric "param" values.
|
||||
The protocol sends a command by packaging the parameter values in a `COMMAND_INT` or `COMMAND_LONG` message, and waits for an acknowledgement with a result in a `COMMAND_ACK`.
|
||||
The command is resent automatically if no acknowledgment is received.
|
||||
Note that [MAV_CMD](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#mav_commands) definitions are also used to define mission actions, and that not all definitions are supported for use in commands/missions on PX4.
|
||||
|
||||
[Microservices](https://mavlink.io/en/services/) are other higher level protocols built on top of MAVLink messages.
|
||||
They are used to communicate information that cannot be sent in a single message, and to deliver features such as reliable communication.
|
||||
The command protocol described above is one such service.
|
||||
Others include the [File Transfer Protocol](https://mavlink.io/en/services/ftp.html), [Camera Protocol](https://mavlink.io/en/services/camera.html) and [Mission Protocol](https://mavlink.io/en/services/mission.html).
|
||||
|
||||
MAVLink messages, commands and enumerations are defined in [XML definition files](https://mavlink.io/en/guide/define_xml_element.html).
|
||||
The MAVLink toolchain includes code generators that create programming-language-specific libraries from these definitions for sending and receiving messages.
|
||||
Note that most generated libraries do not create code to implement microservices.
|
||||
|
||||
The MAVLink project standardizes a number of messages, commands, enumerations, and microservices, for exchanging data using the following definition files (note that higher level files _include_ the definitions of the files below them):
|
||||
|
||||
- [development.xml](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/development.html) — Definitions that are proposed to be part of the standard.
|
||||
The definitions move to `common.xml` if accepted following testing.
|
||||
- [common.xml](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html) — A "library" of definitions meeting many common UAV use cases.
|
||||
These are supported by many flight stacks, ground stations, and MAVLink peripherals.
|
||||
Flight stacks that use these definitions are more likely to interoperate.
|
||||
- [standard.xml](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/standard.html) — Definitions that are actually standard.
|
||||
They are present on the vast majority of flight stacks and implemented in the same way.
|
||||
- [minimal.xml](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/minimal.html) — Definitions required by a minimal MAVLink implementation.
|
||||
|
||||
The project also hosts [dialect XML definitions](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/#dialects), which contain MAVLink definitions that are specific to a flight stack or other stakeholder.
|
||||
|
||||
The protocol relies on each end of the communication having a shared definition of what messages are being sent.
|
||||
What this means is that in order to communicate both ends of the communication must use libraries generated from the same XML definition.
|
||||
|
||||
<!--
|
||||
The messages are sent over-the-wire in the "payload" of a [MAVLink packet](https://mavlink.io/en/guide/serialization.html#mavlink2_packet_format).
|
||||
In order to reduce the amount of information that must be sent, the packet does not include the message metadata, such as what fields are in the message and so on.
|
||||
Instead, the fields are serialized in a predefined order based on data size and XML definition order, and MAVLink relies on each end of the communication having a shared definition of what messages are being sent.
|
||||
The shared identity of the message is conveyed by the message id, along with a CRC ("`CRC_EXTRA`") that uniquely identifies the message based on its name and id, and the field names and types.
|
||||
The receiving end of the communication will discard any packet for which the message id and the `CRC_EXTRA` do not match.
|
||||
-->

||||
|
||||
## PX4 and MAVLink
|
||||
|
||||
PX4 releases build `common.xml` MAVLink definitions by default, for the greatest compatibility with MAVLink ground stations, libraries, and external components such as MAVLink cameras.
|
||||
In the `main` branch, these are included from `development.xml` on SITL, and `common.xml` for other boards.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
To be part of a PX4 release, any MAVLink definitions that you use must be in `common.xml` (or included files such as `standard.xml` and `minimal.xml`).
|
||||
During development you can use definitions in `development.xml`.
|
||||
You will need to work with the [MAVLink team](https://mavlink.io/en/contributing/contributing.html) to define and contribute these definitions.

PX4 includes the [mavlink/mavlink](https://github.com/mavlink/mavlink) repo as a submodule under [/src/modules/mavlink](https://github.com/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/tree/main/src/modules/mavlink).
|
||||
This contains XML definition files in [/mavlink/messages/1.0/](https://github.com/mavlink/mavlink/blob/master/message_definitions/v1.0/).
|
||||
|
||||
The build toolchain generates the MAVLink 2 C header files at build time.
|
||||
The XML file for which headers files are generated may be defined in the [PX4 kconfig board configuration](../hardware/porting_guide_config.md#px4-board-configuration-kconfig) on a per-board basis, using the variable `CONFIG_MAVLINK_DIALECT`:
|
||||
|
||||
- For SITL `CONFIG_MAVLINK_DIALECT` is set to `development` in [boards/px4/sitl/default.px4board](https://github.com/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/blob/main/boards/px4/sitl/default.px4board#L36).
|
||||
You can change this to any other definition file, but the file must include `common.xml`.
|
||||
- For other boards `CONFIG_MAVLINK_DIALECT` is not set by default, and PX4 builds the definitions in `common.xml` (these are build into the [mavlink module](../modules/modules_communication.md#mavlink) by default — search for `menuconfig MAVLINK_DIALECT` in [src/modules/mavlink/Kconfig](https://github.com/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/blob/main/src/modules/mavlink/Kconfig#L10)).
|
||||

||||
The files are generated into the build directory: `/build/<build target>/mavlink/`.

Optional message versioning was introduced PX4 v1.16 to make it easier to maintain compatibility between PX4 and ROS 2 versions compiled against different message definitions.

Versioned messages are designed to remain more stable over time compared to their non-versioned counterparts, as they are intended to be used across multiple releases of PX4 and external systems, ensuring greater compatibility over longer periods.

Versioned messages include an additional field `uint32 MESSAGE_VERSION = x`, where `x` corresponds to the current version of the message.
