As discussed in T38340 the solution is to use the current scene from
context whenever feasible.
Composite does not use node->id at all now, the scene which owns the
compositing node tree is retrieved from context instead.
Defocus node->id is made editable by the user. By default it is not set,
which also will make it use the contextual scene and camera info.
The node->id pointer in Defocus is **not** cleared in older blend files.
This is done for backward compatibility: the node will then behave as
before in untouched scenes.
File Output nodes also don't store scene in node->id. This is only needed
when creating a new node for initializing the file format.

Added function called WM_set_locked_interface which does
two things:
- Prevents event queue from being handled, so no operators
(see below) or values are even possible to run or change.
This prevents any kind of "destructive" action performed
from user while rendering.
- Locks interface refresh for regions which does have lock
set to truth in their template. Currently it's just a 3D
viewport, but in the future more regions could be considered
unsafe, or we could want to lock different parts of
interface when doing different jobs.
This is needed because 3D viewport could be using or changing
the same data as renderer currently uses, leading to threading
conflict.
Notifiers are still allowed to handle, so render progress is
seen on the screen, but would need to doublecheck on this, in
terms some notifiers could be changing the data.
For now interface locking happens for render job only in case
"Lock Interface" checkbox is enabled.
Other tools like backing would also benefit of this option.
It is possible to mark operator as safe to be used in locked
interface mode by adding OPTYPE_ALLOW_LOCKED bit to operator
template flags.
This bit is completely handled by wm_evem_system, not
with operator run routines, so it's still possible to
run operators from drivers and handlers.
Currently allowed image editor navigation and zooming.

Summary:
Crash was happening because of fcurve modifier stack
used modifier's DNA to store temporary data.
Now made it so storage for such a thing is being
allocated locally per object update so multiple objects
which shares the same animation wouldn't run into
threading conflict anymore.
This storage might be a part of EvaluationContext,
but that'd mean passing this context all over in
object_where_is which will clutter API for now without
actual benefit for this.
Optimization notes: storage is only being allocated
if there're Cycles modifier in the stack, so there're
no extra allocations happening in all other cases.
To make code a bit less cluttered with this storage
passing all over the place added extra callbacks to
the FModifier storage which runs evaluation with the
given storage.

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.

Summary:
Behaves very much the same as cache for Movie Clip datablock:
- Image now have `MovieCache *cache` field which replaced
legacy `ListBase ibufs`.
This allows image datablock to easily keep of image
buffers which are owned by itself. This field isn't
saved to the file and getting restored on undo steps.
However, cache limit is global for movies, sequences
and image datablocks now. So overall cached image buffers
size will not go above cache limit size in user
preferences.
- Image buffers which are marked as BITMAPDIRTY will never
be freed from the cache.
- Added utility function to iterate over image buffers
saved in movie cache.
- Movie cache cleanup check callback now have ImBuf argument
which can be used in a condition of cleanup.
- Added some utility functions which replaces legacy ibufs
iterations with image cache iteration which happens from
inside a lock.
- Fixed `image_mem_size()` which was only counting one of
the buffers if both float and byte buffer present.
Additional notes:
- `BKE_image_get_first_ibuf()` is rather stupid, but direct
access to ibufs->first was also the same stupid idea.
Would consider avoid this function is another project.
- There are some places which doesn't look threadsafe, but
they already were not so much threadsafe anyway before.
So think not a big deal with solving this later.
Finally solves infinite memory usage by image sequences! :)

The trackpad would give isolated mouse pan events with a distance smaller than
one line or character. For other 2D views this is all accumulated in floats,
but in the text editor it only keeps track of integers, and the small mouse pan
events got lost due to rounding.
Now it keeps track of sub-line or sub-character scroll offsets to avoid this.
There were several issues with how bounding box and texture space
are calculated:
- This was done at the same time as applying modifiers, meaning if
several objects are sharing the same curve datablock, bounding
box and texture space will be calculated multiple times.
Further, allocating bounding box wasn't safe for threading.
- Bounding box and texture space were evaluated after pre-tessellation
modifiers are applied. This means Curve-level data is actually
depends on object data, and it's really bad because different
objects could have different modifiers and this leads to
conflicts (curve's data depends on object evaluation order)
and doesn't behave in a predictable way.
This commit moves bounding box and texture space evaluation from
modifier stack to own utility functions, just like it's was done
for meshes.
This makes curve objects update thread-safe, but gives some
limitations as well. Namely, with such approach it's not so
clear how to preserve the same behavior of texture space:
before this change texture space and bounding box would match
beveled curve as accurate as possible.
Old behavior was nice for quick texturing -- in most cases you
didn't need to modify texture space at all. But texture space
was depending on render/preview settings which could easily lead
to situations, when final result would be far different from
preview one.
Now we're using CV points coordinates and their radius to approximate
the bounding box. This doesn't give the same exact texture space,
but it helps a lot keeping texture space in a nice predictable way.
We could make approximation smarter in the future, but fir now
added operator to match texture space to fully tessellated curve
called "Match Texture Space".

This is a addtion to the dynamic fly mode.
It behaves as the first person navigation system available in most 3d world games nowadays.
You can alternate between the old mode (Fly) and the new mode (Walk) in User Preferences > Inputs

Shortcuts:
----------
WASD (hold) - Move forward/backward and straft left/right
QE (hold) - Move up and down
Tab - Alternate between Walk and Fly modes
Shift (hold) - Speed up movement
Alt (hold) - Slow down movement
Space or MMB - Teleport
V - Jump
+/- or mouse wheel - speed increase/decrease speed for this Blender session
User Preferences Options:
-------------------------
Navigation Mode - fly/walk navigation systems (fly is the old, walk is the new, next options are for walk mode only)
Gravity - alternate between free navigation and walk with gravity modes
Mouse Sensitivity - sensitivity factor to mouse influence to look around
Teleport Duration - how long the teleport lasts
Camera Height - camera height to use in gravity mode
Jump Height - maximum jump speed in m/s
Move Speed - base move speed in m/s
Boost Factor - multiplication factor when running or going slow (1/boost)
Development Notes:
------------------
* The initial code was based on view3d_fly.c.
* The NDoF code was not touched, so it most likely is not working.
Pending Issues:
---------------
* Draw in the UI the shortcut options, and current values (e.g., Mode: Fly/Walk)
(we need a proper API for that)
* OSX seems to present issues if we re-center the mouse every time. We implemented a workaround for that, but a real fix would be welcome.

This attribute allows to open a blend file as an alternative
start-up file. The attribute is only available from python.
This is an example call:
bpy.ops.wm.read_homefile(filepath='path/to/a/file.blend')
This patch also changes readfile.c to ensure that unintentionally
stored cursor states are not imported from the loaded file.
Summary:
Now it's possible to assign an image to plane tracks
in clip editor. This image is only used for display
in clip editor and this image is being warped into
the plane track rectangle.
Main purpose of this is to get early feedback about
how good image warping matches the footage, before
clip goes to the compositor.
Pretty much straightforward change: just compute
homography from undeformed normalized frame corner
coordinates (unity square) to plane marker corners
and apply this matrix to opengl stack.
Still could improve behavior when perspective
plane transform is degenerate, but that's not so
much critical for now i'd say.

confusion, grid snap is now the default as it seems to be the most wanted and easy to use mode.
Absolute grid snapping happens in a somewhat generic function 'applyGridAbsolute', which could also be used for objects and other transforms later on. It is conceptually similar to the 'project' snapping
option, in that it calculates a delta vector for each element on top of the overall transform, which places each node on the grid.
Node transform now uses the top-left node corner for TransformData->loc. The transform center is still the average of node centers, so that scaling and rotation works nicely.
snapGrid*** functions have been renamed to snapGridIncrement*** to distinguish better between incremental and absolute grid snapping.
mimics the previous behavior when settings were shared by both modes (but not equivalent).
NOTE: Due to the use of additional sRGB conversion in the LGG mode the result is not entirely accurate, this should perhaps be fixed.
Settings for each mode are kept in their own color values nevertheless, this avoids potential problems with float precision.

This commit also replaces revision stored in the

Added a weight slider to track which defines
how much particular track affects in a final
reconstruction. This weight is for sure
animateable.
Currently it affects on BA step only which in
most cases will work just fine.
The usecase of this slider is to have it set
to 1.0 most of the time where the track is
good, but blend it's weight down to 0 when
tracker looses the track. This will prevent
camera from jump.
Tutorial is to be done by Sebastian.
Objects were not being freed when unlinked from all scenes, due to user count increments on the ParticleSystem->parent pointers. These were referencing the objects themselves, creating a user count of 1
and preventing free. Object pointers should not usually do user counting, except in some cases like scenes and groups (thanks to Brecht for clarifying this).
It was rather confusing from the user usage point
of view and didn't get so much improvement after
new bundle adjuster was added.
In the future we might want to switch resection
to PPnP algorithm, which could also might be a
nice alternative to fallback option.
