This mode is designed for passive 3D TV: the viewport is split
horizontally - left eye above, right eye below - but the original camera
viewport is squashed in each half (with half the vertical resolution).
This is necessary to restore the aspect ratio in the 3D output because the TV expands each half to the full screen size.
Summary:
Made objects update happening from multiple threads. It is a task-based
scheduling system which uses current dependency graph for spawning new
tasks. This means threading happens on object level, but the system is
flexible enough for higher granularity.
Technical details:
- Uses task scheduler which was recently committed to trunk
(that one which Brecht ported from Cycles).
- Added two utility functions to dependency graph:
* DAG_threaded_update_begin, which is called to initialize threaded
objects update. It will also schedule root DAG node to the queue,
hence starting evaluation process.
Initialization will calculate how much parents are to be evaluation
before current DAG node can be scheduled. This value is used by task
threads for faster detecting which nodes might be scheduled.
* DAG_threaded_update_handle_node_updated which is called from task
thread function when node was fully handled.
This function decreases num_pending_parents of node children and
schedules children with zero valency.
As it might have become clear, task thread receives DAG nodes and
decides which callback to call for it.
Currently only BKE_object_handle_update is called for object nodes.
In the future it'll call node->callback() from Ali's new DAG.
- This required adding some workarounds to the render pipeline.
Mainly to stop using get_object_dm() from modifiers' apply callback.
Such a call was only a workaround for dependency graph glitch when
rendering scene with, say, boolean modifiers before displaying
this scene.
Such change moves workaround from one place to another, so overall
hackentropy remains the same.
- Added paradigm of EvaluaitonContext. Currently it's more like just a
more reliable replacement for G.is_rendering which fails in some
circumstances.
Future idea of this context is to also store all the local data needed
for objects evaluation such as local time, Copy-on-Write data and so.
There're two types of EvaluationContext:
* Context used for viewport updated and owned by Main. In the future
this context might be easily moved to Window or Screen to allo
per-window/per-screen local time.
* Context used by render engines to evaluate objects for render purposes.
Render engine is an owner of this context.
This context is passed to all object update routines.

Issue was caused by recent image cache rewrite and root of
the issue goes to the fact that blender player doesn't
initialize cache limiter and it uses 32meg of memory only.
This leads to infinite image loading/freeing.
For now disabled cache limiter in game engine, this brings
back old behavior.
In theory we might be smarter here, but better caching
policy is to be discussed.
Disabling display lists for legacy ATI cards since they don't support display lists well.
Also removing an unused variable from the display list rasterizer.
- Re-arrange locks, so no actual memory allocation
(which is relatively slow) happens from inside
the lock. operation system will take care of locks
which might be needed there on it's own.
- Use spin lock instead of mutex, since it's just
list operations happens from inside lock, no need
in mutex here.
- Use atomic operations for memory in use and total
used blocks counters.
This makes guarded allocator almost the same speed
as non-guarded one in files from Tube project.
There're still MemHead/MemTail overhead which might
be bad for CPU cache utilization
Move static variables to context filling in by this fcuntion
and owned by a callee function. This ensures no conflicts
between threads happens because of static variables used in
this function.
Also moved modifier types and virtual modifiers data to a
function called from creator. This is needed to be sure all
the information is properly initialied to the time when
threads starts to use this data.

This will make transitions from older versions of Blender easier since VSYNC_ON
will be the default. This could have been changed in a do_version, but the vsync
code has yet to see an official release, so I figured this would be a bit nicer.
Also, this makes VSYNC_ON the default for new scenes as well.
They were caused by not having a free_windowmanager_cb set and by not having registered SpaceTypes, which meant data allocated for thosse SpaceTypes could not be freed. These were solved by defining a free_windowmanager_cb for the player that just frees wmWindows, and by making sure we only allocate memory for registered SpaceTypes.
now, with a 'resize' routine for the engine we can/should also recreate some
buffers that are created only at init time (e.g., 2d filters, dome fbos, ...).
This bug was always present in Blender (since 2.49 at least).
Bugfix supported by NF-UBC Nereus Program as part of the development

This patch allows Blender to display i18n monospace font in the text
editor and the Python interactive console. Wide characters that occupy
multiple columns such as CJK characters can be displayed correctly.
Furthermore, wrapping, selection, suggestion, cursor drawing, and
syntax highlighting should work.
Also fixes a bug [#34543]: In Text Editor false color in comment on cyrillic
To estimate how many columns each character occupies, this patch uses
wcwidth.c written by Markus Kuhn and distributed under MIT-style license:
http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/wcwidth.c
wcwidth.c is stored in extern/wcwidth and used as a static library.
This patch adds new API to blenfont, blenlib and blenkernel:
BLF_get_unifont_mono()
BLF_free_unifont_mono()
BLF_draw_mono()
BLI_wcwidth()
BLI_wcswidth()
BLI_str_utf8_char_width()
BLI_str_utf8_char_width_safe()
txt_utf8_offset_to_column()
txt_utf8_column_to_offset()
changing the screen resolution wasn't still allowed for larger virtual desktops.
added an exclusive option to ghost so the fullscreen window is ignored by the window manager and we get all events. (common practice for games on X11).
No one bothered to update the player for ffmpeg changes made in August 2012. This meant the player was no longer calling avdevice_register_all(), and ffmpeg would fail to open web cam streams.
This commit adds a UI option in the Render properties to enable the new material caching in the converter. This caching can cause problems with Singletexture and Multitexture materials when texface is being used to handle materials. By default this option is enabled and users with broken games have two options:
1) Fix up their materials so they are properly using textures
2) Disable the material caching and take a speed hit during conversion time
Regardless of the setting, caching is always enabled for GLSL materials.
* Cleaning up the conversion code to avoid a per-face material conversion. Materials are now stored in buckets and only converted if a new material is found. This replaces some of Campbell's earlier work on the subject. His work wasn't as thorough, but it was much safer for a release.
* Shaders are only compiled for LibLoaded materials once. Before they could be compiled twice, which could really slow things down.
* Refactoring the rasterizer code to use a strategy design pattern to handle different geometry rendering methods such as immediate mode, vertex arrays and vertex buffer objects. VBOs are added, but they will be disabled in a following commit since they are still slower than vertex arrays with display lists. However, VBOs are still useful for mobile, so it's good to keep them around.
* Better multi-uv support. The BGE should now be able to handle more than two UV layers, which should help it better match the viewport.
