Add a safe version of normalize since all uses of normalize
did zero length checks, move this into a function.
Also avoid unnecessary conversion.
Gives minor speedup here (approx 3-5%).
Basically gather lines as-is during traversal, avoiding allocating
memory for all the lines in headers.
Brings additional performance improvement abut 20%.
The idea here is that it is possible to mark certain include statements
as "precompiled" which means all subsequent includes of that file will
be replaced with an empty string.
This is a way to deal with tricky include pattern happening in single
program OpenCL split kernel which was including bunch of headers about
10 times.
This brings preprocessing time from ~1sec to ~0.1sec on my laptop.
The idea is to re-use files which were already processed. Gives about 4x speedup
of processing time (~4.5sec vs 1.0sec) on my laptop for the whole OpenCL kernel.
For users it will mean lower delay before OpenCL rendering might start.
This changes the Cycles exporting and Cycles/Eevee UI code to support both
output material nodes, giving priority to the renderer native one. Still
missing is Eevee code to prefer the Eevee output node.
The order of evaluation of function arguments is undefined, and the order
was reversed between these compilers. This was causing regressions tests
to give different results between Linux and macOS.
Note that some little parts of code have been dissabled because eval_ctx
was not available there. This should be resolved once DerivedMesh is
replaced.
GCC seems to detect uninitialized into function calls now, but then isn't
always smart enough to see that it is actually initialized. Disabling this
warning entirely seems a bit too much, so initialize a bit more now.
This commit unifies the flattened texture slot names for bindless and regular CUDA textures. Texture indices are now identical across all CUDA architectures, where before Fermi used different indices, which lead to problems when rendering on multi-GPU setups mixing Fermi with newer hardware.
Change the implementation so it no longer takes over the mouse cursor motion
from the OS, instead only move it when warping, similar to Windows and X11.
Probably the reason it was not done this way originally is that you then get
a 500ms delay after warping, but we can use a trick to avoid that and get much
smoother mouse motion than before.
Tweaked the path radiance summing and alpha to accommodate for possible contribution of
light by transparent surface bounces happening prior to shadow catcher intersection.
This commit will change the way how shadow catcher results looks when was behind semi
transparent object, but the old result seemed to be fully wrong: there were big artifacts
when alpha-overing the result on some actual footage.
This is something which was reported to work fine by Mai, Benjamin and
confirmed by myself. Disabling this workaround gains us some speedup:

Test environment is:
- Ubuntu 16.04, with all updates installed
- AMD RX 480 GPU
- amdgpu pro driver version 17.10-450821
Unfortunately this means disabling the code that ensures the title
bar is properly scaled with DPI, however better to have that as a
cosmetic issue than Blender being unusable with a lot of Intel GPUs.
