This speeds up the node ~20% in common cases, e.g. when only the
X axis is used. The main optimization comes from not writing to memory
that's not used afterwards anymore anyway.
The "optimal code" for just extracting the x axis in a separate loop was
not faster for me. That indicates that the node is bottlenecked by
memory bandwidth, which seems reasonable.
* Port over new code tables from Cycles
* Convert Rec.709 to scene linear for lookup table.
* Move code for wavelength and blackbody to IMB so they can access the
required transforms, which are not in blenlib.
* Remove clamping from blackbody shader to bypass the texture read.
Since it's variable now easiest to just always read from the texture
than pass additional parameters.
* Fold XYZ to RGB conversion into the wavelength table.

* Rename ambiguous rgb to scene_linear in some places
* Precompute matrices to directly go to scene instead of through XYZ
* Make function signatures more consistent
This patches rewrites the GPU shaders of curve nodes for easier future
development. This is a non-functional change. The new code avoids code
duplication by moving common code into BKE curve mapping functions. It
also avoids ambiguous data embedding into the gradient vectors that are
passed to vectors and reduces the size of uniforms uploaded to the
shader by avoiding redundancies.
This is needed in preparation for the viewport compositor, which will
utilize and extend this implementation.

Inspired by D12936 and D12929, this patch adds general purpose
"Combine Color" and "Separate Color" nodes to Geometry, Compositor,
Shader and Texture nodes.
- Within Geometry Nodes, it replaces the existing "Combine RGB" and
"Separate RGB" nodes.
- Within Compositor Nodes, it replaces the existing
"Combine RGBA/HSVA/YCbCrA/YUVA" and "Separate RGBA/HSVA/YCbCrA/YUVA"
nodes.
- Within Texture Nodes, it replaces the existing "Combine RGBA" and
"Separate RGBA" nodes.
- Within Shader Nodes, it replaces the existing "Combine RGB/HSV" and
"Separate RGB/HSV" nodes.
Python addons have not been updated to the new nodes yet.
**New shader code**
In node_color.h, color.h and gpu_shader_material_color_util.glsl,
missing methods hsl_to_rgb and rgb_to_hsl are added by directly
converting existing C code. They always produce the same result.
**Old code**
As requested by T96219, old nodes still exist but are not displayed in
the add menu. This means Python scripts can still create them as usual.
Otherwise, versioning replaces the old nodes with the new nodes when
opening .blend files.

The issue was that the `NodeTreeRef` acceleration data structure was

Overwriting UV map or vertex color data in Geometry nodes will move the
layers to another CustomData channel, and as such, will make attribute
lookup fail from the UVMap and Vertex Color nodes in EEVEE as the
CustomDataType will also be modified (i.e. no longer `CD_MTFACE` or
`CD_MCOL`).
As discussed in T93179, the solution is to use `CD_PROP_AUTO_FROM_NAME`
so that the render engine is able to find the attributes. This also makes
EEVEE emulate Cycles behaviour in this regard. `attr_load_uv` and
`attr_load_color` are also removed in favor of the generic attribute
API in the various GLSL shaders.
Although `CD_PROP_AUTO_FROM_NAME` is now used even for UV maps, the
active UV map is still used in case the attribute name is empty, to
preserve the old behavior.

Goals:
* Better high level control over where devirtualization occurs. There is always
a trade-off between performance and compile-time/binary-size.
* Simplify using array devirtualization.
* Better performance for cases where devirtualization wasn't used before.
Many geometry nodes accept fields as inputs. Internally, that means that the
execution functions have to accept so called "virtual arrays" as inputs. Those
can be e.g. actual arrays, just single values, or lazily computed arrays.
Due to these different possible virtual arrays implementations, access to
individual elements is slower than it would be if everything was just a normal
array (access does through a virtual function call). For more complex execution
functions, this overhead does not matter, but for small functions (like a simple
addition) it very much does. The virtual function call also prevents the compiler
from doing some optimizations (e.g. loop unrolling and inserting simd instructions).
The solution is to "devirtualize" the virtual arrays for small functions where the
overhead is measurable. Essentially, the function is generated many times with
different array types as input. Then there is a run-time dispatch that calls the
best implementation. We have been doing devirtualization in e.g. math nodes
for a long time already. This patch just generalizes the concept and makes it
easier to control. It also makes it easier to investigate the different trade-offs
when it comes to devirtualization.
Nodes that we've optimized using devirtualization before didn't get a speedup.
However, a couple of nodes are using devirtualization now, that didn't before.
Those got a 2-4x speedup in common cases.

This is to make the codegen and shading nodes object type agnostic. This
is essential for flexibility of the engine to use the nodetree as it see
fits.
The essential volume attributes struct properties are moved to the
`GPUMaterialAttribute` which see its final input name set on creation.
The binding process is centralized into `draw_volume.cc` to avoid
duplicating the code between multiple engines. It mimics the hair attributes
process.
Volume object grid transforms and other per object uniforms are packed into
one UBO per object. The grid transform is now based on object which simplify
the matrix preparations.
This also gets rid of the double transforms and use object info orco factors
for volume objects.
Tagging @brecht because he did the initial implementation of Volume Grids.
This commit removes all EEVEE specific code from the `gpu_shader_material*.glsl`
files. It defines a clear interface to evaluate the closure nodes leaving
more flexibility to the render engine.
Some of the long standing workaround are fixed:
- bump mapping support is no longer duplicating a lot of node and is instead
compiled into a function call.
- bump rewiring to Normal socket is no longer needed as we now use a global
`g_data.N` for that.
Closure sampling with upstread weight eval is now supported if the engine needs
it.
This also makes all the material GLSL sources use `GPUSource` for better
debugging experience. The `GPUFunction` parsing now happens in `GPUSource`
creation.
The whole `GPUCodegen` now uses the `ShaderCreateInfo` and is object type
agnostic. Is has also been rewritten in C++.
This patch changes a view behavior for EEVEE:
- Mix shader node factor imput is now clamped.
- Tangent Vector displacement behavior is now matching cycles.
- The chosen BSDF used for SSR might change.
- Hair shading may have very small changes on very large hairs when using hair
polygon stripes.
- ShaderToRGB node will remove any SSR and SSS form a shader.
- SSS radius input now is no longer a scaling factor but defines an average
radius. The SSS kernel "shape" (radii) are still defined by the socket default
values.
Appart from the listed changes no other regressions are expected.
Solves compilation warning with Clang, and moves manipulation with
DNA structures to the designed way for C++.

This patch adds color attributes to TexPaintSlot. This allows an easier selection
when painting color attributes.
Previously when selecting a paint tool the user had to start a stroke, before the
UI reflected the correct TexPaintSlot. Now when switching the slot the active
tool is checked and immediate the UI is drawn correctly.
In the future the canvas selector will also be used to select an image or image texture node
to paint on. Basic implementation has already been done inside this patch.
A limitation of this patch is that is isn't possible anymore to rename images directly from
the selection panel. This is currently allowed in master. But as CustomDataLayers
aren't ID fields and not owned by the material supporting this wouldn't be easy.

In the future we should update the create slot operator to also include color attributes.
Sources could also be extended to use other areas of the object that use image textures

Change uses of "Hair" in Render Settings UI in the property editor
and the "Hair Info" node to use the "Curves" name to reflect the
design described in T95355, where hair is just a use case of a more
general curves data type.
While these settings still affect the particle hair system,
the idea is that if we have to choose one naming scheme to align

and current development efforts, especially since the particle
system is considered a legacy feature.
A few notes:
- "Principled Hair BSDF" is not affected since it's meant for hair.
- Python API property identifiers are not affected.

color attribute system.
This commit removes sculpt colors from experimental
status and unifies it with vertex colors. It
introduces the concept of "color attributes", which
are any attributes that represents colors. Color
attributes can be represented with byte or floating-point
numbers and can be stored in either vertices or
face corners.
Color attributes share a common namespace
(so you can no longer have a floating-point
sculpt color attribute and a byte vertex color
attribute with the same name).

which is a separate patch, see:

bf_nodes was not properly configured as a dependency of bf_nodes_shader.

This patch reverses the dependency between `BLI_math_vec_types.hh` and
`BLI_math_vector.hh`. Now the higher level `blender::math` functions
depend on the header that defines the types they work with, rather than
the other way around.
The initial goal was to allow defining an `enable_if` in the types header
and using it in the math header. But I also think this operations to types
dependency is more natural anyway.
This required changing the includes some files used from the type
header to the math implementation header. I took that change a bit
further removing the C vector math header from the C++ header;
I think that helps to make the transition between the two systems
clearer.

A Bump node without a Height input is meaningless and does nothing.
As such, it is available as an old workaround that allows making Node
Group inputs that default to normal when not connected, by routing
via a no-op Bump node before doing math.
Cycles specifically recognizes this use case and either bypasses
the node, or converts it into a Geometry Normal node, but Eevee
was still evaluating it as usual. That incurred performance cost,
and also normalized the vector unlike Cycles.
This implements the same bypass logic for Eevee. Since I'm not
sure if it's possible to totally remove the node at this stage,
it emits a no-op function call to copy the input vector.

This patch makes it possible to set the UI color of a node's
header bar and override the default from the node's typeinfo.
Currently the color is taken from the `.nclass`
member of the node's bNodeType->TypeInfo struct.
This is created once when registering the node.
The TypeInfo is used for both UI and non-UI functionality.
Since the TypeInfo is shared, the header bar for the node
can't be changed without changing all nodes of that type.
The Map Range node is shown as a `Converter` or blue color by default.
This patch allows this to be changed dynamically to `Vector` or purple.
This is done by adding a `ui_class` callback to node typeinfo struct.
