Seems it's just another issue with the compiler, worked around by explicitly
telling not to inline some function.
In theory we can unify this with CPU, but we're quite close to the release
so better be safe than sorry.
Removed window arg from key conversion functions.
Removed processModifierKeys declaration since that function was
apparently never implemented.
Using Win32-specific classes instead of their generic superclass -- this
helps in a few cases like WinTab.
* m_hDC was always included after m_hWnd in all the constructors and other functions,
but the order was reversed in the struct, meaning that they would not get initialised
correctly
* Got rid of the gotos for the error handling case in initializeDrawingContext()
This was causing "jump to label ... crosses initialisation" errors for the calls
to get GL version string info (i.e. const char *vendor = ...; etc.) I wasn't sure
if those glGetString calls needed the rest of the context to be defined first, so
I decided to leave them where they are now, and got rid of the gotos (which were
making this particular piece of code a bit confusing) instead.
TODO:
There are still a bunch of warnings about around 660, which I haven't managed to solve
(but at least they won't prevent Blender from compiling)
narrowing conversion of '(stereoVisual ? 1063 : 1061)' from 'int' to

OpenGL is detected:
Hoping to decrease the frequency of by far one of the most frequent bug
reports by windows users.
There is some reorganization of the GHOST API to allow easy addition of
further OpenGL options in the future. The change is not propagated too
deep to keep the size of the patch managable. We might reorganize things
here later.
For OpenGL we do two checks here:
One is a combination of GDI generic renderer or vendor microsoft
corporation and OpenGL version 1.1. This means the system does not
use GPU acceleration at all. We warn user to install a graphics
driver and of cases where this might happen (remote connection, using
blender through virtual machine)
The other one just checks if OpenGL version is less than 1.4 (we can
easily change that in the future of course) and warns that it is
deprecated.
Both cases will still let blender startup correctly but users should now
have a clear idea of the system being unsupported.
A user preference flag is provided to turn the warning off.
Now stop posting those bug reports without installing a driver first -
please?
The following commits were supposed to add anti-alias and help with OSL
baking:
7b16fda3791b92dfa961
However they introduced other issues (artifacts mostly), see T43550 .
Leaving the code ifdef'ed for now.
patch number D706 with changes:
- WITH_GPU_DEBUG just creates a debug context (and enables the debug messaging
system functions) but leaves the checks we had intact. Old patch
added the debug functionality only if we had the flag on to save some
performance.
Rationale here is that we might not want to recompile blender just to get
the extra information, and having users start blender with a -d flag to
get the extra information is also useful for bug reports. Those checks already
existed and most expensive ones are hidden behind a debug mode check
so performance should not be that bad.
- Did some cleanup of existing functionality:
When things go wrong blender side, just print the error,
don't check for GL errors first.
- Did not port changes needed for GLES to regular glew.h
- Got rid of duplicate or very similar new functionality.
Generally, code is more moving things around/cleanup and should work exactly
as before apart from the debug context, so it's safe to add even now.
It also provides a nice substitute function for glu error descriptions
This attribute missed derivatives calculation.
Not totally sure what's the proper approach for algebraic derivative
calculation, so calculating them by definition. This isn't fastest
way to do it in this case and could be replaced with some smarter magic
in the wireframe calculation loop.
At least currently implemented approach is better than nothing.
It was complaining about explicit __constant to __private memory conversion,
which is now worked around using implicit conversion.
It's not a real fix i'm afraid and i'm still failing to build OpenCL kernel
with latest Linux drivers, but maybe it'll let someone else to investigate
what causes compiler to run out of memory?
Issue was caused by the changes in 7b16fda which changed the initial
state for rng. This commit makes it so the same initial hash is used
(which solves the regression without distorting AA-looking image.
It also makes it so OpenCL compiler is happy about this code (before
this change it'll complain about trying to cast private variable to
global one).
Ideally we should get rid of those temporary vectors anyway, but
it's not so trivial because of the alignment. For untl then we'll
just have a bit worse solution. This part of code is not the root
of the issue of memory spikes for now anyway.
But since we're getting rid of temporary memory earlier actual spike
is a bit smaller as now. For example in franck_sheep file it's now
5489.69MB vs. previously 5599.90MB.
Simple change: just get rid of intermediate data a bit earlier, before
final pixels array is being allocated. This gives around 30% of memory
save during light update (this is about 60meg in the frank sheep file
i'm using here).
This isn't really visible by artists a lot, because actual spike happens
on BVH construction. But it doesn't mean we shouldn't be accurate with
memory usage in other areas.
OpenCL doesn't let you to get address of vector components, which
is kinda annoying. On the other hand, maybe now compiler will have
more chances to optimize something out.
We don't like when NULL is send to MEM_freeN(), but there was some
differences between lockfree and guarded allocators:
- Lockfree would have silently crash, in both release and debug modes
- Guarded allocator would have printed error message, abort in debug
but keep working in release build.
This commit makes lockfree allocator behavior to match guarded one.
Title pretty says it all actually. Can only briefly mention that we're
indeed entering that state when after applying some WIP patches having
much fuller statistics about memory usage would help giving exact memory
benefit.
This flag is global for all the sessions and never changes. so it doesn't
really make sense to pass it around to all sessions and synchronization
routines.
Switched to a static member of BlenderSession now, but it's probably more
logical to introduce some sort of BlenderGlobals. Doesn't currently worth
a hassle for a single boolean flag tho.
It could have happened with really long rays and small steps.
Step size will be adjusted to the clamped number of steps in order
to preserve render result compatibility as much as possible.
We should probably reformulate this a bit, so it will give the
same looking results without step tweaks. But this new behavior
should already be much better that it was before.
