It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.

Basically filtering was happening twice, first time by applying weights of EWA
filter itself and then by applying subpixel offset while reading pixel values.
The compostor used a fixed size of 4 floats to hold pixel data. this
patch will select size of a pixel based on its type.
It uses 1 float for Value, 3 float for vector and 4 floats for color
data types.
When benchmarking on shots (opening shot of caminandes) we get a
reduction of memory of 30% and a tiny speedup as less data
transformations needs to take place (but these are negligable.

Thanks for Sergey for his indept review.
EWA sampling is designed for downsampling images, i.e. scaling down the size of
input image pixels, which happens regularly in compositing. While the standard
sampling methods (linear, cubic) work reasonably well for linear
transformations, they don't yield good results in non-linear cases like
perspective projection or arbitrary displacement. EWA sampling is comparable to
mipmapping, but avoids problems with discontinuities.
To work correctly the EWA algorithm needs partial derivatives of the mapping
functions which convert output pixel coordinates back into the input image
space (2x2 Jacobian matrix). With these derivatives the EWA algorithm
projects ellipses into the input space and accumulates colors over their
area. This calculation was not done correctly in the compositor, only the
derivatives du/dx and dv/dy were calculation, basically this means it only
worked for non-rotated input images.
The patch introduces full derivative calculations du/dx, du/dy, dv/dx, dv/dy for
the 3 nodes which use EWA sampling currently: PlaneTrackWarp, MapUV and
Displace. In addition the calculation of ellipsis area and axis-aligned
bounding boxes has been fixed.
For the MapUV and Displace nodes the derivatives have to be estimated by
evaluating the UV/displacement inputs with 1-pixel offsets, which can still have
problems on discontinuities and sub-pixel variations. These potential problems
can only be alleviated by more radical design changes in the compositor
functions, which are out of scope for now. Basically the values passed to the
UV/Displacement inputs would need to be associated with their 1st order
derivatives, which requires a general approach to derivatives in all nodes.
Distinguish the 3 different methods for acquiring pixel color values (executePixel, executePixelSampled, executePixelFiltered).
This makes it easier to keep track of the different sampling methods (and works nicer with IDEs that do code parsing).
Differential Revision: http://developer.blender.org/D7
The issue with wrapping is that it requires correct interpolation of the border pixels. Since interpolation is done at the far left end of the node tree in buffer/image/etc read operations, the wrapping
setting can not be used directly in those operations (otherwise in-line translate operations would cause conflicts). To make wrapping work correctly we need to add a buffer in front of the translate
operation, which can then be interpolated correctly based on wrapping. The WrapOperation becomes a variant of ReadBufferOperation, which uses its wrapping setting to determine the correct "extend" mode
for interpolation of the buffer.
Problem is that the read/write buffer operations only work with actual
image inputs. If a singular value is used as group input no actual
buffer will be created, the write operation does not schedule any chunks
and the ReadBufferOperation subsequently returns zero
(MemoryBuffer::read).
The fix uses the (0,0) resolution to detect single value input of the
WriteBufferOperation. The actual resolution is then clamped to (1,1) to
ensure we have a single pixel to store the value in. A m_single_value
flag is also set, so we can reliably distinguish this from genuine image
resolutions without having to check m_width/m_height later on.
The ReadBufferOperation copies this flag from the associated
WriteBufferOperation and if set will always return the single value from
pixel (0,0).
a translate node were connected with the same complex node (like lens
distortion).
Added a check to see if the list of buffers are available to resolve
this issue.
