This implementation is a bit hacky but match cycles pretty close.
If pixel size is not enabled, it will use the geom shader to
compute distances between vertices. This will have a cost.
Implementation is a bit hacky in gpu_codegen to make the geom shader works
in an optional manner.
This supports meshes and hairs too. Matches cycles output.
This adds barycentric coords to the GPUBuiltin enum which will also be used
for the wireframe node.
Color ramp with constant interpolation must bypass texture filtering and
use nearest neighboor sampling in order to appear correctly sharp.
This patch use a GLSL hack to use nearest sampling on thoses particular
color band.
This lower the use of texture samplers slots and let users use more real
textures in their shaders.
This patch also make the ramp texture 16 bit floating point. Meaning you
can now use value greater than one in your color ramps.
With the limit of 128 colorband per shader (a color band being either a
color ramp, a wavelength node or a curve node (and maybe wavelength node in
the future)).
Only drawback with the current implementation is that it does not remove
colorband from pruned GPUNodes but it shouldn't really matter in practice.
This should fix T56010
This is a rough (but fast) approximation that still match cycles reference
in common case.
In practice, it's just adding more of the diffuse light computed for the
diffuse contribution.
This is more like a static optimisation when some parameters are set to 1.0
or 0.0. In theses case we use a more optimized version of the node.
This also revisit the transmission parameter behaviour to make it closer to
cycles.
texelFetch return vec4(0.0) if the target pixel is outside the texture
rect. So we mimic the default repeate mode that we have for linear
interpolation.
Fix T56156 Mapping-Node doesn't work
Features to get the 2nd, 3rd, 4th closest point instead of the closest, and
various distance metrics. No viewport/Eevee support yet.

This works for Cycles, Eevee, texture nodes and compositing. It helps to
reduce the number of math nodes required in various node setups.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D3537
This means the shader can now be used for procedural texturing. New
settings on the node are Samples, Inside, Local Only and Distance.

Do note that it does not match cycles implementation.
Also we could precompute the hash per strand before rendering but that would
suggest it's not per engine specific.
If we make the random value internal to blender then it won't be a matter
because other renderers will have access to the same value.
The Math node currently has the normal atan() function, but for
actual angles this is fairly useless without additional nodes to handle the signs.
Since the node has two inputs anyways, it only makes sense to add an arctan2 option.

Patch D3205 by Kanzaki Wataru
Only implemented in Eevee for now. Collapse a closure to RGBA so we can
do NPR stuff on the resulting color.
Use an emission shader to convert the color back to a closure.
Doing this will break PBR and will kill any SSR and SSS effects the shader
the shader rely on. That said screen space refraction and ambient occlusion
are supported due to the way they are implemented.
Brecht authored this commit, but he gave me the honours to actually
do it. Here it goes; Blender Internal. Bye bye, you did great!
* Point density, voxel data, ocean, environment map textures were removed,
as these only worked within BI rendering. Note that the ocean modifier
and the Cycles point density shader node continue to work.
* Dynamic paint using material shading was removed, as this only worked
with BI. If we ever wanted to support this again probably it should go
through the baking API.
* GPU shader export through the Python API was removed. This only worked
for the old BI GLSL shaders, which no longer exists. Doing something
similar for Eevee would be significantly more complicated because it
uses a lot of multiplass rendering and logic outside the shader, it's
probably impractical.
* Collada material import / export code is mostly gone, as it only worked
for BI materials. We need to add Cycles / Eevee material support at some
point.
* The mesh noise operator was removed since it only worked with BI
material texture slots. A displacement modifier can be used instead.
* The delete texture paint slot operator was removed since it only worked
for BI material texture slots. Could be added back with node support.
* Not all legacy viewport features are supported in the new viewport, but
their code was removed. If we need to bring anything back we can look at
older git revisions.
* There is some legacy viewport code that I could not remove yet, and some
that I probably missed.
* Shader node execution code was left mostly intact, even though it is not
used anywhere now. We may eventually use this to replace the texture
nodes with Cycles / Eevee shader nodes.
* The Cycles Bake panel now includes settings for baking multires normal
and displacement maps. The underlying code needs to be merged properly,
and we plan to add back support for multires AO baking and add support
to Cycles baking for features like vertex color, displacement, and other
missing baking features.
* This commit removes DNA and the Python API for BI material, lamp, world
and scene settings. This breaks a lot of addons.
* There is more DNA that can be removed or renamed, where Cycles or Eevee
are reusing some old BI properties but the names are not really correct
anymore.
* Texture slots for materials, lamps and world were removed. They remain
for brushes, particles and freestyle linestyles.
* 'BLENDER_RENDER' remains in the COMPAT_ENGINES of UI panels. Cycles and
other renderers use this to find all panels to show, minus a few panels
that they have their own replacement for.
This replaces the blackbody to RGB code with the simpler and faster one from
Cycles. It's a little different but the other placing using this is the legacy
volume drawing, so no need to stay compatible with that.
