Normal Map node support for GLSL mode and the internal render (multiple tangents support).
The Normal Map node is a useful node which is present in the Cycles render.
It makes it possible to use normal mapping without additional material node in a node tree.
This patch implements Normal Map node for GLSL mode and the internal render.
Previously only the active UV layer was used to calculate tangents.
The patch contains an implementation of the wide lines and the line stipple that is necessary for OpenGL upgrade.
For the implementation I have chosen the geometry shader because it required minimum changes for the wrapper calls and such implementation is the best for the "basic shader" architecture.
There are few shortcomings that can be corrected in future. They all are related to the fact that the lines in one strip are not connected with each other. So the stipple pattern is not continuous on the common vertex of two lines. There is also no continuity of form (each line is an independent rectangular).
But the advantage is that even outdated glBegin, glVertex work! Though with the above restrictions.
Continuity of form and stipple can be implemented with additional attributes, and it will require more changes in calls.
At the moment, the patch replaces calls for some "gestures". It works satisfactorily for "cross" or "rectangular" and not so good for "lasso" and "circle" due to the above-mentioned shortcomings.
Don't forget to set USE_GLSL to true for testing.

This patch adds a new `falloff_type` ('Inverse Coefficients') for Lamps in
Blender-Internal and GLSL.
The current falloff modes use a formula like this inverse-square one:
`I = E × (D^2 / (D^2 + Q × r^2))`
While such a formula is simple for 3D-artists to use, it's algebraically
cumbersome to work with. Game-designers authoring their own shaders
could benefit much more by having direct control of falloff-coefficients:
`I = E × (1.0 / (coefC + coefL × r + coefQ × r^2))`
In this mode, the `distance` parameter is unused (except for 'Sphere'
mode); instead relying on the designer to mathematically-model the
falloff-behavior.
The UI has been patched like so:

World space and view space normals were mixed up, we should only convert from
world to view space if a custom normal is connected, otherwise it is already in
view space.
The issue was introduced by a fix for T44713 which only made GLSL
consistent with Cycles.
Now we do have conditional averaging or proper luma weighting based
on whether we're new old old shading system. Not totally ideal but
should work for until we re-design viewport possibly breaking how
Blender Internal does implicit conversion.
This patch supports "Image or Movie" and "Environment map" types of world texture for the viewport.
It supports:
- "View", "AngMap" and "Equirectangular" types of mapping.
- Different types of texture blending (according to BI world render).
- Same color blending as when it lacked textures (but render via glsl).

Beside the obvious ARB -> GLSL change, the texture slicing algorithm had
to be rewritten.
Although this new algorithm has the same behaviour as the old one (view
aligned slicing), it works with an arbitrary number of slices (which
could eventually be set by the user), which means we can preallocate the
buffer. The previous algorithm would slice from the begining to the end
of the volume's bbox, and draw the slices as it generates them.
Also support for ARB program was removed.
Patch by myself, with some minor fixes by Brecht.

This commit changes the way how we pass bounce information to the Light
Path node. Instead of manualy copying the bounces into ShaderData, we now
directly pass PathState. This reduces the arguments that we need to pass
around and also makes it easier to extend the feature.
This commit also exposes the Transmission Bounce Depth to the Light Path
node. It works similar to the Transparent Depth Output: Replace a
Transmission lightpath after X bounces with another shader, e.g a Diffuse
one. This can be used to avoid black surfaces, due to low amount of max
bounces.
Reviewed by Sergey and Brecht, thanks for some hlp with this.
I tested compilation and usage on CPU (SVM and OSL), CUDA, OpenCL Split
and Mega kernel. Hopefully this covers all devices. :)
The is intended to replace the deprecated glPolygonStipple() calls with a shader
based alternative, once we switch over to GLSL shaders.

Input array length is implicitly set at link time, based on the geometry
shader's layout. Specifying the wrong value here is an error; specifying
no value is the same as getting it right. (inspired by a recent codegen
change)
This commit fixes shader tree compilation, but the shading result wouldn't be
doing actual refraction because it's a bit involved change which isn't really
considered a bug for now. There are more closures which are falling back to
diffuse BSDF currently.
This commit contains all the remained parts needed for initial integration of
OpenSubdiv into Blender's subdivision surface code. Includes both GPU and CPU
backends which works in the following way:
- When SubSurf modifier is the last in the modifiers stack then GPU pipeline
of OpenSubdiv is used, making viewport performance as fast as possible.
This also requires graphscard with GLSL 1.5 support. If this requirement is
not met, then no GPU pipeline is used at all.
- If SubSurf is not a last modifier or if DerivesMesh is being evaluated for
rendering then CPU limit evaluation API from OpenSubdiv is used. This only
replaces the legacy evaluation code from CCGSubSurf_legacy, but keeps CCG
structures exactly the same as they used to be for ages now.
This integration is fully covered with ifdef and not enabled by default
because there are several TODOs to be solved first:
- Face varying data interpolation is not really cleanly implemented for GPU
in OpenSubdiv 3.0. It is also not implemented for limit evaluation API.
This basically means we'll have really hard time supporting UVs.
- Limit evaluation only works with adaptivly subdivided meshes so far, which
basically means all the points of CCG are pushed to the limit. This gives
different result from old code.
- There are some serious optimizations possible on the topology refiner
creation, which would speed up initial OpenSubdiv mesh creation.
- There are some hardcoded asumptions in the GPU and DerivedMesh areas which
could be generalized.
That's something where Antony and Campbell can help, making it so the code
is structured in a way which is reusable by all planned viewport projects.
- There are also some workarounds in the dependency graph to make sure OpenGL
buffers are only freed from the main thread.
Those who'll be wanting to make experiments with this code should grab dev
branch (NOT master) from
https://github.com/Nazg-Gul/OpenSubdiv/tree/dev
There are some patches applied in there which we're working on on getting
into upstream.
Those files are still not in use (SCons will tyr to compile new CCGSubSurf files
but no code will be in use at all because those new files are fully wrapped by
ifdef WITH_OPENSUBDIV check).

That was really crappy indeed. Now we have a separate API
for low level OpenGL programs, plus a nice interface for GPU, also
removes some GL calls from main code as a plus :)
The source for the programs is also moved to nice external .glsl files
(not sure which extension convention GPU assemply uses)
ATI driver does not like declaration of gl_FragColor and glFragData in
the same source file (even though only one of the two is ever
referenced), just use one of the two.
and on screen rendering.
Aaaaah, the beauty of driver implementations of OpenGL!
Turns out the problem here is that drivers calculate df/dy differently
in some cases (probably because OpenGL counts y reverse to how the
window system does, so drivers can get confused).
Fixed this for the ATI case based on info we have so far, there's also
the Intel case which will be handled separately (missing info on Intel's
renderer string etc).
Unfortunately we can't really fix this for the general case so we'll
have to haldle cases as they come in our tracker and by adding silly
string comparisons in our GPU initialization module <sigh>.
This patch will fix the world GLSL (mist, background, ambient) update for the BGE.

Quite a few things wrong here:
* Mac did not support EXT_draw_instanced, only ARB_draw_instanced
* Draw instanced did not work unless data came from vertex buffer, which
is second time we see weird things with vertex arrays in mac
* There were a few stupid mistakes by me as well, such as binding to
uniform locations for the wrong shaders (it's a wonder it ever worked
:p)
A new checkbox "High quality" is provided in camera settings to enable
this. This creates a depth of field that is much closer to the rendered
result and even supports aperture blades in the effect, but it's more
expensive too. There are optimizations to do here since the technique is
very fill rate heavy.
People, be careful, this -can- lock up your screen if depth of field
blurring is too extreme.
Technical details:
This uses geometry shaders + instancing and is an adaptation of
techniques gathered from

TODOs:
* Support dithering to minimize banding.
* Optimize fill rate in geometry shader.
Basically, before drawing X-Rays, we now bind a second depth buffer.
After drawing XRays, we do an extra resolve pass where we overwrite the
non-XRay depth buffer in pixels where the depth is not maximum (which
means background pixel, since depth is cleared before drawing X-Ray
objects).
This ensures both scene and X-Rays keep their depth values and are ready
for compositing. Well, the odd effect due to depth discontinuities can be
expected, and X-Rays are a bit more expensive (extra buffer + resolve pass)
but at least X-Rays won't invalidate depth values anymore. Whee!
background.
For SSAO supporting this is no problem, for DOF we would ideally do
blurred alpha, but alpha channel in blurred buffers is occupied by coc
field, so use original color alpha instead. It's not entirely correct
but it's better than nothing.
This commit introduces a few ready made effects for the 3D viewport
and OpenGL rendering.
Included effects are Depth of Field, accessible from camera view
and screen space ambient occlusion. Those effects can be turned on and
tweaked from the shading panel in the 3D viewport.
Off screen rendering will use the settings of the current camera.
