This is a more correct fix to the issue Brecht was fixing in D6600.
While the fix in that patch worked fine for linking it broke ASAN
runtime under some circumstances.
For example, `make full debug developer` would compile, but trying
to start blender will cause assert failure in ASAN (related on check
that ASAN is not running already).
Top-level idea: leave it to CMake to keep track of dependency graph.
The root of the issue comes to the fact that target like "blender" is
configured to use a lot of static libraries coming from Blender sources
and to use external static libraries. There is nothing which ensures
order between blender's and external libraries. Only order of blender
libraries is guaranteed.
It was possible that due to a cycle or other circumstances some of
blender libraries would have been passed to linker after libraries
it uses, causing linker errors.
For example, this order will likely fail:
libbf_blenfont.a libfreetype6.a libbf_blenfont.a
This change makes it so blender libraries are explicitly provided
their dependencies to an external libraries, which allows CMake to
ensure they are always linked against them.
General rule here: if bf_foo depends on an external library it is
to be provided to LIBS for bf_foo.
For example, if bf_blenkernel depends on opensubdiv then LIBS in
blenkernel's CMakeLists.txt is to include OPENSUBDIB_LIBRARIES.
The change is made based on searching for used include folders
such as OPENSUBDIV_INCLUDE_DIRS and adding corresponding libraries
to LIBS ion that CMakeLists.txt. Transitive dependencies are not
simplified by this approach, but I am not aware of any downside of
this: CMake should be smart enough to simplify them on its side.
And even if not, this shouldn't affect linking time.
Benefit of not relying on transitive dependencies is that build
system is more robust towards future changes. For example, if
bf_intern_opensubiv is no longer depends on OPENSUBDIV_LIBRARIES
and all such code is moved to bf_blenkernel this will not break
linking.
The not-so-trivial part is change to blender_add_lib (and its
version in Cycles). The complexity is caused by libraries being
provided as a single list argument which doesn't allow to use
different release and debug libraries on Windows. The idea is:
- Have every library prefixed as "optimized" or "debug" if
separation is needed (non-prefixed libraries will be considered
"generic").
- Loop through libraries passed to function and do simple parsing
which will look for "optimized" and "debug" words and specify
following library to corresponding category.
This isn't something particularly great. Alternative would be to
use target_link_libraries() directly, which sounds like more code
but which is more explicit and allows to have more flexibility
and control comparing to wrapper approach.
Tested the following configurations on Linux, macOS and Windows:
- make full debug developer
- make full release developer
- make lite debug developer
- make lite release developer
NOTE: Linux libraries needs to be compiled with D6641 applied,
otherwise, depending on configuration, it's possible to run into
duplicated zlib symbols error.

gpu_draw.c had generic sounding utility functions which were specific
to smoke drawing.
Split into it's own file so the functionality is clearly separated.
A collection of smaller changes that are required in the /blender/source files. A lot of them are also due to variable renaming.

This is the unification of all overlays into one overlay engine as described in T65347.
I went over all the code making it more future proof with less hacks and removing old / not relevent parts.
Goals / Acheivements:
- Remove internal shader usage (only drw shaders)
- Remove viewportSize and viewportSizeInv and put them in gloabl ubo
- Fixed some drawing issues: Missing probe option and Missing Alt+B clipping of some shader
- Remove old (legacy) shaders dependancy (not using view UBO).
- Less shader variation (less compilation time at first load and less patching needed for vulkan)
- removed some geom shaders when I could
- Remove static e_data (except shaders storage where it is OK)
- Clear the way to fix some anoying limitations (dithered transparency, background image compositing etc...)
- Wireframe drawing now uses the same batching capabilities as workbench & eevee (indirect drawing).
- Reduced complexity, removed ~3000 Lines of code in draw (also removed a lot of unused shader in GPU).
- Post AA to avoid complexity and cost of MSAA.
Remaining issues:
- ~~Armature edits, overlay toggles, (... others?) are not refreshing viewport after AA is complete~~
- FXAA is not the best for wires, maybe investigate SMAA
- Maybe do something more temporally stable for AA.
- ~~Paint overlays are not working with AA.~~
- ~~infront objects are difficult to select.~~
- ~~the infront wires sometimes goes through they solid counterpart (missing clear maybe?) (toggle overlays on-off when using infront+wireframe overlay in solid shading)~~
Note: I made some decision to change slightly the appearance of some objects to simplify their drawing. Namely the empty arrows end (which is now hollow/wire) and distance points of the cameras/spots being done by lines.

Adds a check when starting blender if your platform is supported. We use a blacklist
as drivers are updated more regular then blender (stable releases).
The mechanism detects if the support level changed or has been validated by the user previously.
Changes can happen due to users updating their drivers, but also when we change the support
level in our code base.
When the user has seen the limited support level message it is saved in the user config.
It would be better to have a system specific config section, but currently not clear
what could benefit from that.
When the platform is unsupported or has limited support a dialog box will appear including a link
to our user manual describing what to do.
**Windows**
Windows uses the MessageBox that is provided by the windows kernel.
**X11**
We use a very lowlevel messagebox for X11. It is very limited in use and can be fine tuned when needed.
**SDL/APPLE**
There is no implementation for SDL or APPLE at this moment as the platform support feature targets mostly Windows users.

This patch allows the Voronoi node to operate in 1D, 2D, and 4D space.
It also adds a Randomness input to control the randomness of the texture.
Additionally, it adds three new modes of operation:
- Smooth F1: A smooth version of F1 Voronoi with no discontinuities.
- Distance To Edge: Returns the distance to the edges of the cells.
- N-Sphere Radius: Returns the radius of the n-sphere inscribed in
the cells. In other words, it is half the distance between the
closest feature point and the feature point closest to it.
And it removes the following three modes of operation:
- F3.
- F4.
- Cracks.
The Distance metric is now called Euclidean, and it computes the actual
euclidean distance as opposed to the old method of computing the squared
euclidean distance.
This breaks backward compatibility in many ways, including the base case.

This patch continue the efforts to split the `gpu_shader_material` file
started in D5569.
Dependency resolution is now recursive. Each shading node gets its own
file. Additionally, some utility files are added to be shared between
files, like `math_util`, `color_util`, and `hash`. Some files are always
included because they may be used in the execution function, like
`world_normals`.
Some glsl functions appeared to be unused, so they were removed, like
`output_node`, `bits_to_01`, and `exp_blender`. Other functions have
been renamed to be more general and get used as utils, like `texco_norm`
which became `vector_normalize`.
A lot of the opengl tests fails, but those same tests also fail in
master, so this is probably unrelated to this patch.

Compiling this big file for every Eevee material is bad for performance, and
now that we are adding more nodes it gets worse. This patch adds a simple
mechanism to split up that file, and use only the parts used by shader nodes.
When a function is used by GPU_link, we detect which GLSL file it came from
and use it in GLSL code generation automatically. Dependencies between GLSL
files are manually specified, and function names must be unique across all
GLSL files.
Most of the actual splitting up will be done in later commits.

No functional change, this adds LIB definition and args to cmake files.
Without this it's difficult to migrate away from 'BLENDER_SORTED_LIBS'
since there are many platforms/configurations that could break when
changing linking order.
Manually add and enable WITHOUT_SORTED_LIBS to try building
without sorted libs (currently fails since all variables are empty).
This check will eventually be removed.
See T46725.
Needed to fix T61196, supporting clipped back-buffer in the 3D view
which is done outside the draw module.
It was also inconvenient having DRW_shader_* versions of GPU_shader_*
API calls.
- Clipping distances are now supported as a shader configuration
for builtin shaders.
- Add shader config argument when accessing builtin shaders.
- Move GPU_shader_create_from_arrays() from DRW to GPU.
Instead of doing a lot of alpha blended drawing with jittering, use the
fragment shader to do the masking using a circle mask.
This is much simpler and requires much less resources.
Hopefully this may solve the issue we have with the Intels UHD Graphics 620
on linux.
At least on windows we do not re-run datatoc when the .glsl files change.
To test is simple, just change edit_mesh_overlay_common_lib.glsl
remove lines, write plain text, ..., now rebuild and go in edit mode
with the default cube.
I also had to remove the entry in gpu/CMakeLists.txt for
gpu_shader_material.glsl since this was being tracked directly, as well
as running data_to_c_simple (otherwise CMake raises an error for
duplicated entries).
We probably want to do the same for the other datatoc functions.

NOTE: This commit only concern edit UVs and not the "shadow" mesh displayed
when texture painting. This will be address in a future commit.
We now cache the uv mesh in the mesh batch cache and only reupload data on
changes.
Update could be more granular (and a bit faster) but it's not our main
concern ATM.
This should fix problem caused by the IMM api used to draw large meshes.
This makes performance skyrocket compared to previous implementation.
There is still a big CPU bottleneck when not in sync selection mode but it
is not related to the drawing function directly.
Use the multiply blending mode for the weight paint overlay.
To support the opacity slider, we need a new shader. Otherwise this combination of multiplication and mixing does not seem to be supported by glBlendFunc.

This shader is used instead of blitting back and forth to a single sample
buffer.
This means it resolves the color and depth samples and outputs a fragment
which can be depth tested and blended on top of an existing framebuffer.
We do static shader variation with manual loop unrolling for performance
reason. In my test I get 25% more perf with intel integrated gpu and 75%
performance gain with dedicated nvidia card compared to a single shader
with a uniform for sample count.
