For 2.93 we bumped the minimum windows requirement
to windows 8.1, but did not do any clean-up of any
win 8/8.1 API usage we dynamically accessed though
LoadLibrary/GetProcAddress.
This patch bumps _WIN32_WINNT to 0x0603 (win 8.1)
and cleans up any API use that was accessed in a
more convoluted way than necessary

FFmpeg would use deprecated variables to calculate the video fps.
We don't use these deprecated variables anymore, so ensure that the
duration is correct in ffmpeg versions without this fix.

Allows to centralize storage and modification checks in a single place,
avoiding duplication in the synchronization code.
Ideally we would somehow be able to more granularly modify Cycles side
objects. Leaving this for a future decision, because it might be better
to implement it as a graph on the sync side.
Makes it more explicit they operate on shading/light.
Gives room to move more viewport related settings into this class and
cover with specific or generic modification checks.
Such pattern should only be used when it is really needed. Otherwise
just stick to a more regular design, without worrying who is the user
of the class. Otherwise it will be annoying to subclass or unit test.
No need to state that it is a viewport display pass, since the method
is within viewport parameters it is implied that parameters do belong
to the viewport.
Brings this code closer to the Cycles-X branch.
Both before and after can have artifacts with some normal maps, but this seems to give
worse artifacts on average which are not worth the minor performance increase.
This reverts commit 21bc1a99ba.
Ref T88368, D10084
When an `AttributeSet` is tagged as modified, which happens after the addition or
removal of an `Attribute` from the set, during the following GeometryManager device
update, we update and repack the kernel data for all attribute types. However, if we
only add or remove a `float` attribute, `float2` or `float3` attributes should not
be repacked for efficiency.
This patch adds some mechanisms to detect which attribute types are modified from
the AttributeSet.
Firstly, this adds an `AttrKernelDataType` to map the data type of the Attribute to
the one used in the kernel as there is no one to one match between the two since e.g.
`Transform` or `float4` data are stored as `float3s` in the kernel.
Then, this replaces the `AttributeSet.modified` boolean with a set of flags to detect
which types have been modified. There is no specific flag type (e.g.
`enum ModifiedType`), rather the flags used derive simply from the
`AttrKernelDataType` enumeration, to keep things synchronized.
The logic to remove an `Attribute` from the `AttributeSet` and tag the latter as modified
is centralized in a new `AttributeSet.remove` method taking an iterator as input.
Lastly, as some attributes like standard normals are not stored in the various
kernel attribute arrays (`DeviceScene::attribute_*`), the modified flags are only
set if the associated standard corresponds to an attribute which will be stored
in the kernel's attribute arrays. This makes it so adding or removing such attributes
does not trigger an unnecessary update of other type-related attributes.

Using displacement runs the shader eval kernel, but since OptiX modules are not loaded when
baking is active, those were not available and therefore failed to launch. This fixes that by falling
back to the CUDA kernels.
Do not allow a window to be created that has a top position that
can obscure all or part of title bar. Right and Left edges can
still be specified slightly outside of monitor bounds, but top
edge must be clamped to monitor top.

When creating Win32 windows, the sizes and placements can be out by a
small amount, mostly noticeable near monitor edges. This is because
Windows 10 includes a thin invisible border (typically 7 pixels) when
determining position. Therefore the correct values can sometimes be
just outside the monitor bounds, but we clamp them at those bounds.
This patch fixes this by first clamping the requested values to monitor
bounds, adjusting for window chrome with AdjustWindowRectEx(), and then
using those adjusted values in CreateWindowExW().

These seem to be causing some stability issues, and really are just not that
useful in practice. Compiling them is slow already, so it does not improve
the user experience much to show an AO preview if it's not nearly instant.
The BlenderSync will do quite a bit of work on every sync_data() call
even if there is nothing changed in the scene. There will be early
outputs done deeper in the call graph, but this is not really enough to
ensure best performance during viewport navigation.
This change makes it so sync_data() is only used when dependency graph
has any update tags: if something changed in the scene the dependency
graph will know it. If nothing changed there will be no IDs tagged for an
update in the dependency graph.
There are two weak parts in the current change:
- With the persistent data there is a special call to ignore the check
of the dependency graph tags. This is more of a safety, because it is
not immediately clear what the correct state of recalc flags is.
- Deletion of objects is detected indirectly, via tags of scene and
collections.
It might not be bad for the first version of the change.
The test file used: {F10117322}
Simply open the file, start viewport render, and navigate the viewport.
On my computer this avoids 0.2sec spend on data_sync() on every
up[date of viewport navigation.
We can do way more granular updates in the future: for example, avoid
heavy objects sync when it is only camera object which changed. This
will need an extended support from the dependency graph API. Doing
nothing if nothing is changed is something we would want to do anyway.

We use the schema so that we can access top level attributes as well.
This is already done for polygon meshes and curves, so this only
modifies the behavior for subdivision objects.
This is giving too bright pixel values, as the sample scaling and random number
sample are wrong. The proper fix for this is complicated. It will be solved in
Cycles X, for now we disable this combination.

Adds internal API for creating and managing OpenXR actions at the
GHOST and WM layers. Does not bring about any changes for users since
XR action functionality is not yet exposed in the Python API (will be
added in a subsequent patch).
OpenXR actions are a means to communicate with XR input devices and
can be used to retrieve button/pose states or apply haptic feedback.
Actions are bound to device inputs via a semantic path binding
(https://www.khronos.org/registry/OpenXR/specs/1.0/html/xrspec.html#semantic-path-interaction-profiles),
which serves as an XR version of keymaps.
Main features:
- Abstraction of OpenXR action management functions to GHOST-XR,
WM-XR APIs.
- New "xr_session_start_pre" callback for creating actions at
appropriate point in the XR session.
- Creation of name-identifiable action sets/actions.
- Binding of actions to controller inputs.
- Acquisition of controller button states.
- Acquisition of controller poses.
- Application of controller haptic feedback.
- Carefully designed error handling and useful error reporting
(e.g. action set/action name included in error message).

This issue originates from a missing BVH packing for visibility data
when it is modified.
To fix this, this adds update flags to the managers to carry the
modified visibility information from the Objects' modified flag to the
GeometryManager.
Another set of flags is added to determine which data need to be packed:
geometry, vertices, or visibility. Those flags are then used when
packing the primivites.

Was causing calculation issues later on in the kernel.
This change catches the most obvious case: missing attribute. The old
code was trying to set tangent to 0, but because it was transformed as
a normal it got converted to non-finite value. This change makes it so
that no transform is involved and 0 is written directly to the SVM
stack.
To cover all cases it will require using safe_normalize() in this node
and in the normal transform function. This is more involved change from
performance point of view, would be nice to verify whether we really want
to go this route.

It is possible that BSDF allocation will advance pointer in the
allocation "pool" but will return null pointer if the weight is

One artist-measurable issue this change fixes is random issues
