We handle doversion for the scene properties, but not for the
view layer overrides.
Overrides will be implemented in a different way via dynamic overrides.
For now this data is completely lost.
This mean we can now have different shadow resolutions for both.
However each shadow type keep the same size accross all lamps because of
future "real" Cube Shadowmaps limitation and to save texture sampler slots.
That said the cascade shadow resolution could (in the future) still be
changed to be adjustable per sun lamp.
Because:
- Less redundancy.
- Better suffixes.
Also a few modification to GPU_texture_create_* to simplify the API:
- make the format explicit to the texture creation process.
- remove the component count as it's specified in the GPUTextureFormat.
This "improve" the viewport experience by reducing the noise from random
sampling effects (SSAO, Contact Shadows, SSR) when moving the viewport or
during playback.
This does not do Anti Aliasing because this would conflict with the outline
pass. We could enable AA jittering in "only render" mode though.
There are many things to improve but this is a solid basis to build upon.
This pass create a velocity buffer which is basically a 2D motion vector
texture. This is not yet used for rendering but will be usefull for motion
blur and temporal reprojection.
This refactor modernise the use of framebuffers.
It also touches a lot of files so breaking down changes we have:
- GPUTexture: Allow textures to be attached to more than one GPUFrameBuffer.
This allows to create and configure more FBO without the need to attach
and detach texture at drawing time.
- GPUFrameBuffer: The wrapper starts to mimic opengl a bit closer. This
allows to configure the framebuffer inside a context other than the one
that will be rendering the framebuffer. We do the actual configuration
when binding the FBO. We also Keep track of config validity and save
drawbuffers state in the FBO. We remove the different bind/unbind
functions. These make little sense now that we have separate contexts.
- DRWFrameBuffer: We replace DRW_framebuffer functions by GPU_framebuffer
ones to avoid another layer of abstraction. We move the DRW convenience
functions to GPUFramebuffer instead and even add new ones. The MACRO
GPU_framebuffer_ensure_config is pretty much all you need to create and
config a GPUFramebuffer.
- DRWTexture: Due to the removal of DRWFrameBuffer, we needed to create
functions to create textures for thoses framebuffers. Pool textures are
now using default texture parameters for the texture type asked.
- DRWManager: Make sure no framebuffer object is bound when doing cache
filling.
- GPUViewport: Add new color_only_fb and depth_only_fb along with FB API
usage update. This let draw engines render to color/depth only target
and without the need to attach/detach textures.
- WM_window: Assert when a framebuffer is bound when changing context.
This balance the fact we are not track ogl context inside GPUFramebuffer.
- Eevee, Clay, Mode engines: Update to new API. This comes with a lot of
code simplification.
This also come with some cleanups in some engine codes.
Sequencer rendering can use multisample render targets. Be sure to sync
thoses after rendering.
Also disable the sample loop when not needed.
Do note that currently the color correction is broken with the sequencer.
Instead of creating a new instancing shading group without attrib, we now have instancing calls. The benefits is that they can be culled.
They can be used in conjuction with the standard and generate calls but shader must support it (which is generally not the case).
We store a pointer to the actual count so that the number can be tweaked between redraw.
This will makes multi layer rendering more efficient.
Now that Eevee has support for offline rendering (F12) we can use it for
the Material previews.
Note: This makes the duplicated UI issue one panel worse. That happens when
Cycles if your scene engine, and Eevee is your workspace engine.
Technically the original issue is that xof/yof in render result is calculated
for drawing border render. So a simpler patch could be:
```
- rr->xof = re->disprect.xmin;
+ rr->xof = re->disprect.xmin + BLI_rcti_cent_x(&re->disprect) - (re->winx / 2);
```
However everywhere in the code we are getting border directly from re->disprect
which we may as well do here too.
Besides I'm taking this as a chance to get rid of RenderResult in the internal
loop of eevee, to help prepare the code to the upcoming rendering pipeline
changes.
We need to move the render result logic outside the render engine code.
It makes no sense for Eevee/Clay/... to have to re-implement the render resilt
creation logic. Beside the original implementation really got it wrong, by
ignoring the different render layers needed for the final render.
Finally, there is no need to re-create the logic for views. So this was also
fixed.
Note 1: This will break still if the depsgraph of the needed view layers is not
updated / created. We need to address this separately. For now if users want
to test this, just show each view layer in the viewport at least once.
Note 2: We are still getting depsgraph from scene and creating if needed.
`BKE_scene_get_depsgraph(scene, view_layer, true);` according to Sergey we need
to move the render depsgraph for the Render struct instead. I will do it
separately as well.
General idea of the fix: skip the whole draw manager callback madness which
was used to tag object's engine specific data as dirty. Use generic recalc
flag in ObjectEngineData structure instead. This gives us the following
benefits;
- Sovles mentioned bug report.
- Avoids whole interface lookup for opened viewports for EVERY changed ID.
- Fixes missing updates when viewport is temporarily invisible.

This is an optimization / cleanup commit.
The use of a global ubo remove lots of uniform lookups and only transfert data when needed.
Lots of renaming for more consistent codestyle.
This leads to a ~3ms improvement of CPU time during drawing.
This prevent the rendering from being stalled waiting for the texture data to be transfered.
Using GL_RG16I texture for the hit coordinates increase tremendously the precision of the hit.
The sign of the integer is used to 2 flags (has_hit and is_planar).
We do not store the depth and retrieve it from the depth buffer (increasing bandwith by +8bit/px).
The PDF is stored into another GL_R16F texture.
We remove the raycount for simplicity and to reduce compilation time (less branching in refraction shader).
Tests on my system with ~1200 objects with 128 shadow casting lamps (current max) show a significant perf improvment (cache timing : 22ms -> 9ms)
With a baseline with no shadow casting light at 6ms this give a reduction of the overhead from 16ms to 3ms.
This remove pretty much all allocations during the cache phase. Leading to a big improvement for scene with a large number of lights & shadowcasters.
The lamps storage has been replace by a union to remove the need to free/allocate everyframe (also reducing memory fragmentation).
We replaced the linked list system used to track shadow casters by a huge bitflag.
We gather the lights shadows bounds as well as the shadow casters AABB during the cache populate phase and put them in big arrays cache friendly.
Then in the cache finish phase, it's easier to iterate over the lamps shadow SphereBounds and test for intersection.
We use a double buffer system for the shadow casters arrays to detect deleted shadow casters.
Unfortunatly, it seems that deleting an object trigger an update for all other objects (thus tagging most shadow casting lamps to update), defeating the purpose of this tracking.
This needs further investigation.
Result is less noisy ogl renders.
What this patch does:
- the draw loops gets accumulated into the output buffer.
- disable TXAA persmat jittering in ogl render since ogl render already does that.
- make noise texture update correct accross all draw loops. Previously it was reset between each FSAA samples.
This allows a duplicator (as known as dupli parent) to be in a visible
collection so its duplicated objects are visible, however while being
invisible for the final render.
An object that is a particle emitter is also considered a duplicator.
Many thanks for the reviewers for the extense feedback.

I had to make Eevee draw its scene in the scene pass (before it was doing it
in the background pass). This is not ideal since reference images require
a separation between scene and background.
But it's the best way to solve it now. Clay is working fine.
Users can change the group collection visibility in the outliner
when looking at groups.
Regular collections on the other hand don't have any special visibility control,
if you need a collection to be invisible during render, either don't link it
into the view layer used for F12, or disable it.
This includes:
* Updated unittests - update your lib/tests/layers folder.
* Subversion bump - branches be aware of that.
Note:
Although we are using eval_ctx to determine the visibility of a group collection
when rendering, the depsgraph is still using the same depsgraph for the viewport
and the render engine, so at the moment the render visibility is ignored.
Following next is a workaround for this separately to tag the groups before and
after rendering to tackle that.
