When updating a mesh, the GPU Subdivision code makes calls to
`GPU_indexbuf_bind_as_ssbo()`.
This may cause the current VAO index buffer to change due to calls from
`glBindBuffer(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, ibo_id_)` in
`GPU_indexbuf_bind_as_ssbo()`.
The solution is to unbind the VAO (by calling `glBindVertexArray(0)`)
before creating the index buffer IBO.

Pull Request #104873
Certain material node graphs can be very expensive to run. This feature aims to produce secondary GPUPass shaders within a GPUMaterial which provide optimal runtime performance. Such optimizations include baking constant data into the shader source directly, allowing the compiler to propogate constants and perform aggressive optimization upfront.
As optimizations can result in reduction of shader editor and animation interactivity, optimized pass generation and compilation is deferred until all outstanding compilations have completed. Optimization is also delayed util a material has remained unmodified for a set period of time, to reduce excessive compilation. The original variant of the material shader is kept to maintain interactivity.
Also adding a new concept to gpu::Shader allowing assignment of a parent shader from which a shader can pull PSO descriptors and any required metadata for asynchronous shader cache warming. This enables fully asynchronous shader optimization, without runtime hitching, while also reducing runtime hitching for standard materials, by using PSO descriptors from default materials, ahead of rendering.
Further shader graph optimizations are likely also possible with this architecture. Certain scenes, such as Wanderer benefit significantly. Viewport performance for this scene is 2-3x faster on Apple-silicon based GPUs.

Pull Request #104536
The GPU module has 2 different styles when reading back data from
GPU buffers. The SSBOs used a memcpy to copy the data to a
pre-allocated buffer. IndexBuf/VertBuf gave back a driver/platform
controlled pointer to the memory.
Readback is done for test cases returning mapped pointers is not safe.
For this reason we settled on using the same approach as the SSBO.
Copy the data to a caller pre-allocated buffer.
Reason why this API is currently changed is that the Vulkan API is more
strict on mapping/unmapping buffers that can lead to potential issues
down the road.

This wasn't really a problem since these are set on first bind or creation.
The test `if (enabled_srgb && srgb_) {` was depending on that variable that
in certain case, might not have been initialized (because of lazy init).
This adds a new mirror image extension type for shaders and
geometry nodes (next to the existing repeat, extend and clip
options).
See D16432 for a more detailed explanation of `wrap_mirror`.
This also adds a new sampler flag `GPU_SAMPLER_MIRROR_REPEAT`.
It acts as a modifier to `GPU_SAMPLER_REPEAT`, so any `REPEAT`
flag must be set for the `MIRROR` flag to have an effect.

Regression introduced by {rB601995c3b86986cf8f8e5b6e5a65bcfa7f8f2e32}.
Noticed by Heist project as they render final frames with workarounds enabled.
The mentioned patch introduces attaching VBO as textures. This used to be
done by the caller. The mechanism used a different order hence the VBO
could still be unbound when using. This cannot be solved inside the new
mechanism clearly so this patch will just bind when the buffer isn't bound
just before the drawing command is sent to the GPU driver.
Use store-current-and-restore-previous OpenGL program in the OpenGL
Shader Interface. This is a better fix for the initial error, which
additionally solves interface artifacts when opening non-default
startyp files on macOS with AMD GPU.
The interface needs to bind the shaders for some parameter setup.
This program change wasn't reflected in the GPUContext.
This was then conflicting with the next shader bind if the next shader was
the same as the shader bound before the interface creation.
Setting the state to the correct shader ensures a rebind if needed.
Fix T101792 New hair curves do not render properly first time in EEVEE with motion blur enabled
This is the conventional way of dealing with unused arguments in C++,
since it works on all compilers.
Regex find and replace: `UNUSED\((\w+)\)` -> `/*$1*/`
In heavy scenes containing many hairs/curves and volumetrics
using SSBO can overwrite the binding information of the volumetric
resolve shader. This has been detected during project Heist and is
only reproducable on NVIDIA platform.
This patch adds an debug option to disable SSBOs from the command
line to replace the --debug-gpu-force-workarounds that has been
used as a workaround on the render farm. Reason is that
force workarounds will also add other limitations as well (number
of texture binds for example)
MTLContext provides functionality for command encoding, binding management and graphics device management. MTLImmediate provides simple draw enablement with dynamically encoded data. These draws utilise temporary scratch buffer memory to provide minimal bandwidth overhead during workload submission.
This patch also contains empty placeholders for MTLBatch and MTLDrawList to enable testing of first pixels on-screen without failure.
The Metal API also requires access to the GHOST_Context to ensure the same pre-initialized Metal GPU device is used by the viewport. Given the explicit nature of Metal, explicit control is also needed over presentation, to ensure correct work scheduling and rendering pipeline state.

Otherwise we disable this feature. This is because some driver
does not support any vertex storage buffers but still support
8 ssbo in fragment shader.
This is a new implementation of the draw manager using modern
rendering practices and GPU driven culling.
This only ports features that are not considered deprecated or to be
removed.
The old DRW API is kept working along side this new one, and does not
interfeer with it. However this needed some more hacking inside the
draw_view_lib.glsl. At least the create info are well separated.
The reviewer might start by looking at `draw_pass_test.cc` to see the
API in usage.
Important files are `draw_pass.hh`, `draw_command.hh`,
`draw_command_shared.hh`.
In a nutshell (for a developper used to old DRW API):
- `DRWShadingGroups` are replaced by `Pass<T>::Sub`.
- Contrary to DRWShadingGroups, all commands recorded inside a pass or
sub-pass (even binds / push_constant / uniforms) will be executed in order.
- All memory is managed per object (except for Sub-Pass which are managed
by their parent pass) and not from draw manager pools. So passes "can"
potentially be recorded once and submitted multiple time (but this is
not really encouraged for now). The only implicit link is between resource
lifetime and `ResourceHandles`
- Sub passes can be any level deep.
- IMPORTANT: All state propagate from sub pass to subpass. There is no
state stack concept anymore. Ensure the correct render state is set before
drawing anything using `Pass::state_set()`.
- The drawcalls now needs a `ResourceHandle` instead of an `Object *`.
This is to remove any implicit dependency between `Pass` and `Manager`.
This was a huge problem in old implementation since the manager did not
know what to pull from the object. Now it is explicitly requested by the
engine.
- The pases need to be submitted to a `draw::Manager` instance which can
be retrieved using `DRW_manager_get()` (for now).
Internally:
- All object data are stored in contiguous storage buffers. Removing a lot
of complexity in the pass submission.
- Draw calls are sorted and visibility tested on GPU. Making more modern
culling and better instancing usage possible in the future.
- Unit Tests have been added for regression testing and avoid most API
breakage.
- `draw::View` now contains culling data for all objects in the scene
allowing caching for multiple views.
- Bounding box and sphere final setup is moved to GPU.
- Some global resources locations have been hardcoded to reduce complexity.
What is missing:
- ~~Workaround for lack of gl_BaseInstanceARB.~~ Done
- ~~Object Uniform Attributes.~~ Done (Not in this patch)
- Workaround for hardware supporting a maximum of 8 SSBO.

This is a complete rewrite of the draw debug drawing module in C++.
It uses `GPUStorageBuf` to store the data to be drawn and use indirect
drawing. This makes it easier to do a mirror API for GPU shaders.
The C++ API class is exposed through `draw_debug.hh` and should be used
when possible in new code.
However, the debug drawing will not work for platform not yet supporting
`GPUStorageBuf`. Also keep in mind that this module must only be used
in debug build for performance and compatibility reasons.
This updates image bind tracking to be the same as texture binds.
Adding a new bind flag to avoid conflict when the texture is used in
both slots.
