The new constraint is slower and not backward compatible, but should
be better, especially in the damping side. The new constraint also
has a different valid range of the damping coefficient, and a limit
implementation that bounces instead of making the object stationary.

WEBM is the codec name, and VP9 is the encoder (the older encoder "VP8"
is less efficient than VP9).
WEBM/VP9 and h.264 both have options to control the file size versus
compression time (e.g. fast but big, or slow and small, for the same
output quality). Since WEBM/VP9 only has three choices, I've chosen to
map those to 3 of the 9 possible choices of h.264:
- BEST → SLOWER
- GOOD → MEDIUM
- REALTIME → SUPERFAST
The VERYSLOW and ULTRAFAST options give very little extra benefit.

Some of the code is simpler because we use Blender's triangulation directly

- Disable scissor test for fast clear. This could lead to some issues but
I cannot think of one and could not find one either.
- Manually wait for queries to be available instead of making the driver
wait and issue warnings.
The encoding panel mentions "None" in a few places, which is confusing.
- "Codec: None" now reads "No Video"
- "Audio Codec: None" now reads "No Audio"
- "Output Quality: None; ..." now reads "Constant Bitrate"
When selecting "No Video" the remaining video encoding options are
hidden, making it even more explicit that there will not be video in the
output file.
The label "Codec" now reads "Video Codec" for symmetry with "Audio
Codec".
Previous code was assuming that the glyph texture would remain bound to
GL_TEXTURE0 until the cache would be drawn. This is not always the case,
so better save the texture and rebind it before drawing.
This port the Blurring of blf fonts to the final drawing shader.
We add a bit of extra padding to each glyph so that jittering the texture
coord does not sample the neighbor glyphs.
Overall 10% more performance on general UI drawing time.
This commit can introduce ordering problem on some elements.
In this case you need to flush the widget cache to ensure the element that
is going to be drawn is drawn on top of any widget base.
To flush the cache use UI_widgetbase_draw_cache_flush.
This is already done for BLF and Icons.
When importing multiple materials for one object,
the imported material animation curves have all been
assigned to the first material in the object.
This fix also improves the console logging whenever the importer

Replace the 12 iterations of UI_draw_roundbox_4fv with only one batch.
This mean less overdraw and less drawcalls.
I had to hack the opacity falloff curve manually to get approximatly the

Use the new GPU_SHADER_2D_NODELINK and GPU_SHADER_2D_NODELINK_INST to
accelerate nodelink drawing.
This commit does not include the batching functionnality. So this should
not make a lot of difference.
Now use a list of preset batches with a function to add new ones to this
list.
This removes the need of new functions all over the place to reset/exit.
Special shader to draw nodelinks for the node editor.
We only pass bezier points to the GPU and vertex position is handled inside
the vertex shader.
The arrow is also part of the batch to avoid separate drawcalls for it.
We still draw 2 pass one for shadow and one for the link color on top.
One variation to draw instances of theses links so that we only do one
drawcall.
The issue was caused by component tag forcing CoW component to be run,
without actually flushing changes down the road from the CoW operation.
In a way, this is what we want: we do want CoW to run on changes, but
we don't want tiny change forcing full datablock update.
This commit makes it so order of updates is all correct, but the bigger
issue is still open: what parts of datablock CoW should be updating?
Now it's possible to open spring file and play around.
The issue was mainly visible when copy-on-write was enabled. This was forcing
lots of meshes to be freed from multiple thread, causing all sorts of race
conditions in Gawain's VAO code.
OpenGL resources seems already to be doing deferred deletion, need to do the
same for CPU side arrays.
Free code should not handle ID refcounting at all. This has to be done
at higher level, since in some case we want to free (temp) data that
actually did not refcount at all its IDs.
This change seems to be working OK, but as usual in that area, only
lots of testing in real-case situation will say whether there are some
hidden bugs or not.
Issue was, *some* IDs (like infamous nodetrees from materials etc.)
would not go through the 'main' read_libblock() func, so their tags were
never reset.
So now, we ensure direct_link_id() always clear the tags, and move
setting them in read_libblock() after the call to direct_link_id().
Needed for depsgraph, but general healthier fix actually.
The problem was that textures were assigned to different slots on different draw
calls, which caused shader specialization/patching by the driver. So the shader
would be compiled over and over until all possible assignments were used.
This is a part of copy-on-write sanitization, to avoid all the checks
which were attempting to keep sub-data pointers intact.
Point is: ID pointers never change for CoW datablocks, but nested
data pointers might change when updating existing copy.
Solution: Only bind ID data pointers and index of sub-data.
This will make CoW datablock 7update function was easier in 2.8.
In master we were only using pose channel pointers in callbacks,
this is exactly what this commit addresses. A linear lookup array
is created on pose evaluation init and is thrown away afterwards.
One thing we might consider doing is to keep indexed array of

Back in the days (2.4x and before), it was rather easy to get some
invalid utf-8 strings in Blender. This is totally breaking modern code,
so this commit adds a simple 'check & fix strings' operator, available
from the main File menu.
E.g. typing `bpy.data.bl_rna.properties[8].<tab>` in console would hard-crash
trying to dereference NULL pointer. Was a missing check in rna_Property_tags_itemf().
This is really minor but anyways, now it will only leak if you cancel the menu.
And that only if htis is the last time you called this operator before closing
Blender.
Better fix for T54457. It seems Debian compiles OpenVDB without ABI 3
compatibility, while Arch does enable it as is the default in the OpeVDB
CMake build system.
So now there's an option that the distribution can set depending on how
they compile their OpenVDB package.
Some functions always returned the input argument
which was never used.
This made code read as if there might be a leak.
Now return a boolean (true the imbuf is modified).
- Undo that changes modes currently asserts,
since undo is now screen data.
Most likely we will change how object mode and workspaces work
since it's not practical/maintainable at the moment.
- Removed view_layer from particle settings
(wasn't needed and complicated undo).
- Use a single undo history for all operations.
- UndoType's are registered and poll the context to check if they
should be used when performing an undo push.
- Mode switching is used to ensure the state is correct before
undo data is restored.
- Some undo types accumulate changes (image & text editing)
others store the state multiple times (with de-duplication).
This is supported by checking UndoStack.mode `ACCUMULATE` / `STORE`.
- Each undo step stores ID datablocks they use with utilities to help
manage restoring correct ID's.
Needed since global undo is now mixed with other modes undo.
- Currently performs each undo step when going up/down history
Previously this wasn't done, making history fail in some cases.
This can be optimized to skip some combinations of undo steps.
grease-pencil is an exception which has not been updated
since it integrates undo into the draw-session.
See D3113
For this we use a new shader that gets it's data from a uniform array.
Vertex shader position the vertices using these data.
Using glUniform is way faster than using imm for that matter.
Like BLF rendering, UI icons are always (as far as I know) non occluded and
displayed above everything else. They also does not overlap with texts so
they can be batched at the same time.
This adds less than a megabyte of mem usage.
FT_Get_Kerning was the 2nd hotspot when profilling. This commit completly
remove this cost.
One concern though: I don't know if the kerning data is constant for every
sizes but it seems to be the case. I tested different fonts at different
dpi scalling and saw no differences.
I left a flag to quickly debug if something is wrong.
But now that everything uses shader, it seems to be alright since a shader
is always set active before drawing.
I've made a separate version of the geom shader that works with full
3D modelviewmat.
This commit also includes some fixup inside blf_batching_start().
You can now use BLF_batching_start and BLF_batching_end to batch every
drawcall to BLF together minimizing the overhead introduced by BLF and the
opengl driver.
These calls cannot be nested (for now).
If the modelview matrix changes, previously batched calls are issued and a
the process resume with the new matrix.
However the projection matrix MUST not change and gl scissors as well.
This is not a perfect win just yet. It's now calling glBufferSubData for
every call (instead of using glMapBufferRange which is almost faster), but
with this system we will be able to batch drawcalls together.
See next commit.
This allows us to specify a the number of vertices to upload to the gpu.
This is to keep the same allocation on the System Memory but send the least
amount of data to the GPU/Driver.
- See `--log` help message for usage.
- Supports enabling categories.
- Color severity.
- Optionally logs to a file.
- Currently use to replace printf calls in wm module.

Two issues are fixed with this commit:
1) When we build OIIO (on unixoid build environments) and no /src/doc/oiiotool was present we had no build target for it (which led to a build error). As we don't need docs for OIIO, we disable it now.
2) We specified a var that OIIO does not recognize (was removed upstream a long time ago): ILMBASE_VERSION.
Selecting not only the objetcs directly linked to the selected collection.
So we also do it for the objetcs in the nested collections, just as we can
do from the outliner.
Use Shift+G > Collection. If there is only one collection, it just selects it,
if there are multiple ones user get to pick which one to select.
This is the same behaviour we have for groups. Note, we only select objects
directly in the collection, not the ones in any nested collection.
Feature suggested by Pablo Vazquez (venomgfx)
This means smaller imm buffer usage.
This does not reduce the number of drawcalls.
This uses geometry shader which is slow for the GPU but given we are really
CPU bound on this case, it should not matter.
A perfect implementation would:
- Set the glyph coord in a bufferTexture and just send the glyph ID to the
GPU to read the bufferTexture.
- Use GWN_draw_primitive and draw 2*strllen triangle and just retrieve the
glyph ID and color based on gl_VertexID / 6.
- Stream fixed size buffer that the Driver can discard quickly but this is
the same as improving IMM directly.
This update adds a link to the Wikipedia article "Euler angles" to the description of the mathutils.Euler class.

Fix for T54437: Sequencer preview uses last updated scene
The fix started in master, moving EvaluationContext initialization
before we leave `deg_evaluate_on_refresh()`.
Upon merging master we can fix the actual issue which was to set
the EvaluationContext depsgraph even if the depsgraph was already updated.
This is required to T54437 (sequencer preview uses last updated scene).
Although the fix itself needs to be in 2.8, for the 2.8 specific
initialization code.
Introduce a UI batch cache. For the moment it's only used by widgetbase so
leaving it interface_widgets.c. If it grows, it can have its own file.
Like all preset batches (batches used by UI context), vaos must be refreshed
each time a new window context is binded.
This still does 3 GWN_batch_draw in the worst cases but at least it does
not use the IMM api.
I will continue and batch the 3 calls together since we are really CPU
bound, so shader complexity does not really matters.
I cannot spot any difference on all the widgets I could test. I did not use
any unit tests so I cannot tell if there is really any defects.
This is not a complete rewrite but it adresses the top bottleneck found
after a profilling session.
Use more generic id->recalc flag.
Also sanitize flag flush from settings to particle system.
Need to do such flush before triggering point cache reset, since
point cache reset will do some logic based on what flags are set.
This will solve crash caused by threaded update which will set
some bitflags while point cache reset is in progress.
The way how particle state is to be accessed or used did not change
in Blender 2.8, so the drawing code should follow old design.
This code is somewhat duplicated from drawobject.c, but old draw
code is on the way to be removed anyway.
This fixes issue with disappearing particles when tweaking number
of particles.
Tagging based on components might not be granular enough.
For example, for particles we would want to know what part
of particles was changed exactly. For the flushing we wouldn't
worry too much, because we will want less granular updates
there anyway.

Development Notes
=================
The ideal solution would be to implement an elegant generic multi-level
menu system similar to toolbox_generic() in 2.49.
Instead I used `uiItemMenuF` to acchieve the required nesting of the menus.
The downside is that `uiItemMenuF` requires the data its callback uses to be
always valid until the menu is discarded. But since there is no callback we
can call when the menu is discarded for operators that exited with
`OPERATOR_INTERFACE`.
That means we are using static allocated data, that is only freed next time
the operator is called. Which also means there will always be some
memory leakage.

Drawcall per window redraw on default layout:
- 4100+ without patch
- 1270 with patch
Theses drawcalls meant a lot of driver overhead since they each correspond
to one glMapBuffer which is slow.
- Get memory usage from MemFile instead of MEM API
avoids possible invalid when threads alloc memory.
- Use size_t instead of uint and uintptr_t to store size.
- Rename UndoElem.str -> filename
- Rename MemFileChunk.ident -> is_identical
Random numbers for step offset were correlated, now use stratified samples
which reduces noise as well for some types of volumes, mainly procedural
ones where the step size is bigger than the volume features.
Remain convinced that it should not be possible for undo code to run in
parallel with DEG eval... But for now, this whould prevent static
override code to dive into this collection.
This refactor modernise the use of framebuffers.
It also touches a lot of files so breaking down changes we have:
- GPUTexture: Allow textures to be attached to more than one GPUFrameBuffer.
This allows to create and configure more FBO without the need to attach
and detach texture at drawing time.
- GPUFrameBuffer: The wrapper starts to mimic opengl a bit closer. This
allows to configure the framebuffer inside a context other than the one
that will be rendering the framebuffer. We do the actual configuration
when binding the FBO. We also Keep track of config validity and save
drawbuffers state in the FBO. We remove the different bind/unbind
functions. These make little sense now that we have separate contexts.
- DRWFrameBuffer: We replace DRW_framebuffer functions by GPU_framebuffer
ones to avoid another layer of abstraction. We move the DRW convenience
functions to GPUFramebuffer instead and even add new ones. The MACRO
GPU_framebuffer_ensure_config is pretty much all you need to create and
config a GPUFramebuffer.
- DRWTexture: Due to the removal of DRWFrameBuffer, we needed to create
functions to create textures for thoses framebuffers. Pool textures are
now using default texture parameters for the texture type asked.
- DRWManager: Make sure no framebuffer object is bound when doing cache
filling.
- GPUViewport: Add new color_only_fb and depth_only_fb along with FB API
usage update. This let draw engines render to color/depth only target
and without the need to attach/detach textures.
- WM_window: Assert when a framebuffer is bound when changing context.
This balance the fact we are not track ogl context inside GPUFramebuffer.
- Eevee, Clay, Mode engines: Update to new API. This comes with a lot of
code simplification.
This also come with some cleanups in some engine codes.
This is a bit useless because gpu lamps are only used by the game engine
and it is planned to be "remove" in some way.
Doing this to clean gpu_framebuffer.c.
This includes a few modification:
- The biggest one is call glActiveTexture before doing any call to
glBindTexture for rendering purpose (uniform value depends on it).
This is also better to know what's going on when rendering UI. So if
there is missing UI elements because of this commit look for this first.
This allows us to have "less calls" to glActiveTexture (I did not
measure the final count) and less checks inside GPU_texture.
- Remove use of GL_TEXTURE0 as a uniform value in a few places.
- Be more strict and use BLI_assert for bad usage of GPU_texture functions.
- Disable filtering for integer and stencil textures (not supported by
OGL specs).
- Replace bools inside GPUTexture by a bitflag supporting more options to
identify texture types.
Undo sometimes reserved too much space in the buffer,
now assert when this happens and allocate the exact size needed.
Note prepares for moving text editor undo out of the text block (D3113)
which will split the undo buffer into a list of undo steps.
This commit essentially introduces a new RNA property flag, which when
set prevents affected property from being processed at all in comparison
code (also used to automatically generate static override rules).
The idea is to use it on very low-level data in RNA, like e.g. mesh's
geometry or psys' particles collections.
For now only applied to psys' particle collections, on the main mesh of
Agent327 pigeon, it goes from 100ms to 0.5ms on a full
auto-override-generating comparison...
Also added some new RNA property helper funcs to check on comparable and
overridable status.
With better directory layout and more proper include
statements we can avoid several local modifications,
such as changing config.h for Windows Glog and the
ones related on pass-through statements in logging
headers in Glog.
This commit also makes unused functions not-a-warning
for external code.
The list of editor-types is rather long by now, so better to arrange them into

* Edit the file (e.g. translate some object)
* Quit Blender but don't skip quit promt

* Save the file
Not sure if Windows supports the "Save & Quit" behavior, so this may not have

You only had to close Blender through File -> Quit.
Leaks happened because WM_exit() was called from within operator, UI wasn't able
to free some of it's heap data then. This data was the handler added in
uiTemplateRunningJobs() and the IDProperty group added in uiItemFullO_ptr_ex().
There was obviously a general design issue which only became visible in this
specific case.
We now delay the WM_exit call by wrapping it into a handler that gets registered
as usual. I didn't see a better way to do this, all tricks done in
ui_apply_but_funcs_after() to prevent leaks didn't work here. In fact they may
be redundant now, but am not brave enough to try ;)

It is possible that datablock will not be re-used for the new

MSVC still defines __cplusplus as 199711L until it's in full conformance with the newer c++ standards, however the things we need from the standard are fully supported, hence a check for the msvc version was needed.
With the API recently added to gawain, it is now possible to update the vbos linked to the batch.
So the batch does not have to be destroyed.
The optimization is more sensitive when sculpt is made on low poly meshs
Without this a "Clearcoat" link could be moved to "Clearcoat Normal"

Increasing the samplig dimensions like this is not optimal, I'm looking
into some deeper changes to reuse the random number and change the RR
probabilities, but this should fix the bug for now.
We revert to the malloc/realloc and manually manage the upload.
There seems to be a performance penalty from using glMapBuffer on some
hardware, prefering way is glBufferData(NULL) with glBufferSubData.
PointCache was having a collection of items of PointCache type, having a
collection of items of PointCache type, having...
Nuff said.
For now, chose the 'ugly' way to fix it, that is, the one that changes
nothing to API and scripts using it: we define another 'PointCacheItem'
RNA type for items of our point cache collection, which has exact same
interface as PointCache except for the collection.
This is doomed to be rewritten at some point anyway, not worth spending
time trying to define a really correct data layout for now.
- Upload the data to the GPU directly when creating the element buffer in
GWN_indexbuf_build_in_place().
- Convert data in place when squeezing the indices and removing the need
for another allocation.
- GWN_indexbuf_build_in_place() can be used with already used element
buffers and reupload their data without changing vbo id (keeping vaos
up to date).
We now alloc a vbo id on creation and let OpenGL manage its memory directly.
We use glMapBuffer to get this memory location.
This enables us to reuse and modify any vertex buffer directly without
destroying it with its associated Batches.
This commit does not really improve performance but will let us implement
more optimizations in the future.
We can also resize the buffer even if this can be slow if we need to keep
the existing data.
The addition of the usage hint makes dynamic buffers not a special case
anymore, simplifying things a bit.
* In the Collada Module parameters are typically ordered
in a similar way. I changed this to:
extern std::string get_joint_id(Object *ob, Bone *bone);
* The Object parameter was not used in get_joint_sid().
I changed this to:
extern std::string get_joint_sid(Bone *bone);
When a name property is defined for collection's struct, but no name is
actually set, we want to also fallback to index case. We cannot handle
empty names to address items of a collection!
We had a mix of two issues here actually:
* First, Brush are currently using their own sauce for custom previews,
this is not great, but moving them to use common ImagePreview system of
IDs is a low-priority TODO. For now, they should totally ignore their
own ImagePreview.
* Second, BKE_icon_changed() would systematically create a PreviewImage
for ID types supporting it, which does not really makes sense, this
function is merely here to 'tag' previews as outdated. Actual creation
of previews is deferred to later, when we actually need them.
They are used to start and end colored output in console.
Use with care, it is up to you to check that console actually
supports Truecolor ANSII.
In thew future we can extend this to other consoles and platforms.
Previous approach was not clear enough and caused problems.
UBOs were taking slots and not release them after a shading group even
if this UBO was only for this Shading Group (notably the nodetree ubo,
since we now share the same GPUShader for identical trees).
So I choose to have a better defined approach:
- Standard texture and ubo calls are assured to be valid for the shgrp
they are called from.
- (new) Persistent texture and ubo calls are assured to be valid accross
shgrps unless the shader changes.
The standards calls are still valids for the next shgrp but are not assured
to be so if this new shgrp binds a new texture.
This enables some optimisations by not adding redundant texture and ubo
binds.
Unity itself is deprecated, but the API is also supported by KDE and the GNOME Dock extension,
which means that it will be useful for a wide variety of distributions.
To get a progress bar, the system must have a blender.desktop file and libunity installed.
The need for libunity is annoying, but the only alternative would be to integrate a DBus library...

Basically, don't do full in-place copy of node tree datablock if it's
already expanded. Current way how node tree is evaluated is fully
built around the idea that evaluation copies values from original
to copied datablocks.
Changing links is handled on another level.
Old solution was to create a new vbo and copy it to the location of
the old vbo hoping for the batches to update their vaos before drawing.
The issue is that the new VAO caching is not updating the VAOs at all
unless the shader interface changes.
So unless we expand gawain to support updating of vertex buffers (in a
better way than the current "dynamic" buffer) we need to delete every batch
linked to the vbo we want to recreate.
This solution might have performance implications.
Requires BLI_utildefines.h to be included first,
(already noted in other inline code).
Possible alternative could be to move BLI_assert into own header.
Even if they are for safety they are not free to use !
On my system (Mesa + AMD Vega GPU) calling:
glBindVertexArray(1);
glDrawArrays(GL_TRIANGLES, 0, 3);
glBindVertexArray(0);
in a loop, shows the same overhead as a full vao switching (which is more
or less 10 times slower than just calling glDrawArrays)
Moreover, now that we use OpenGL 3.3 binding a VAO is REQUIRED to issue a
drawcall so it is garanted to be overwritten before the next drawcall.
Problem can only happen if someone draws directly with opengl commands.
This allows to draw multiple primitive of the type
GWN_PRIM_LINE_STRIP
GWN_PRIM_LINE_LOOP
GWN_PRIM_TRI_STRIP
GWN_PRIM_TRI_FAN
GWN_PRIM_LINE_STRIP_ADJ
with only one drawcall. This should speed up some areas that are really
sensitive to drawcall counts : UV drawing, Hair drawing...
For IDProps IDarray, IDP_EqualsProperties was called for each item,
instead of IDP_EqualsProperties_ex, discarding value of `is_strict`

Probably not an issue with current code, though.
The issue was only visible with copy-on-write enabled, and related to the
fact, that dependency graph builder binds original FCurves.
For now use smallest patch possible to make things to work and to make
draguu happy.
Need to think of a smarter way to deal with drivers, bones and view layers.
I tried to use real multisampling but the main problem is the outline detection that needs to have matching depth samples.
So adding FXAA instead. Always on for now, may add a parameter for it later.
One thing to note is that we need to copy the final output once again to the main color buffer because we cannot swap the dtxl textures (they can be referenced elsewhere like GPUOffscreen).
We could improve upon this and add TAA on top if viewport is still.
This means that rendering clay with AO only needs 1 geometry pass.
Thus greatly improving performance of poly heavy scene.
This also fix a self shadow issue in the AO, making low sample count
way better.
We also do not need to blit the depth anymore since we
are doing a fullscreen shading pass.
The constant cost of running the a deferred shading pass is negligeable.
This include quite a bit of code cleanup inside clay_engine.c.
The deferred pipeline is only enabled if at least one material needs it.
Multisampling is not supported yet.
Small hacks when doing deferred:
- We invert the normal before encoding it for precision.
- We put the facing direction into the sign of the mat_id.
- We dither the normal to fight the low bitdepth artifacts of the normal
buffer (which is 8bits per channel to reduce bandwidth usage).
- The common name in computer science are 'getters' and 'setters', so by
adding these names to the documentation (while 'get' and 'set are still
also mentioned) we improve findability. Having 'Getters/Setters' as a
title also makes it clearer that this example is not just about
getting or setting the property value.
- Added a little prefix to each printed value, so that print statement,
expected output, and real output can be matched easier.
The old example had two downsides:
- It promoted a blocking UI design, where the user is shown a popup
before actually executing the operator.
- It didn't show how to actually use the property values.
The new code avoids these mistakes. The properties are also shown in the
redo panel in the 3D view.
Note that I also changed the bl_idname, as this is an example about
properties, not about dialogue boxes, and changed the class name to use
the standard operator naming convention.
I also extended the example to include a panel that sets multiple
properties of the operator, since I see questions about this relatively
frequently.
Sequencer rendering can use multisample render targets. Be sure to sync
thoses after rendering.
Also disable the sample loop when not needed.
Do note that currently the color correction is broken with the sequencer.
Looks like someone changed the signature of some RNA update callback,
and for some reason that 'change skey' update function was not updated

We'll need RNA to check for its func signatures, some day...
When adding scene strips to the sequencer, the wrong scenes were
getting getting added if some were skipped. For example:
Given 4 scenes (A, B, C, D) if you're trying to add the last 3 scenes
(B, C, D) as strips to the first scene (A), it would ended up adding
"A, B, C" instead of "B, C, D" as expected.
Fix provided by Andrew (signal9).
Calling the rendering operator seems to kill any other WM_job running, leaving
uncompiled materials into a GPU_MAT_QUEUED state. This then made the probe update
looping indefinitely (all_materials_updated remaining to false).
To fix this, we resume compilation for materials that are in this state.
Cancelling Render before all material compilation could make certain material
remain uncompiled. Fortunately, this is not allowed as of now.
Need Clear ID recalc flag on load. Otherwise it's possible to have
some IDs considered always updated by Cycles, when they were saved
in a tagged-for-update state.
Thanks Bastien for feedback and review!
Nothing user visible, only things needed for multi-object support,
making picking functions more flexible too.
- Support passing in an initialized hit-struct,
so it's possible to do multiple nearest calls on the same hit data.
- Replace manhattan distance w/ squared distance
so they can be compared.
- Return success to detect changes to a hit-data
which might already be initialized (also more readable).
This is mostly to avoid re-compilation when using undo/redo operators.
This also has the benefit to reuse the same GPUShader for multiple materials using the same nodetree configuration.
The cache stores GPUPasses that already contains the shader code and a hash to test for matches.
We use refcounts to know when a GPUPass is not used anymore.
I had to move the GPUInput list from GPUPass to GPUMaterial because it's containing references to the material nodetree and cannot be reused.
A garbage collection is hardcoded to run every 60 seconds to free every unused GPUPass.
* Suspicious usage of pointer:
short *type = 0; // this creates a null pointer
When this is later used for anything then blender would crash.
After following the code and check what happens i strongly believe
the author wanted to use a short and not a pointer to a short here.
* local variable where reused later in same function
While this did no harm, i still felt it was better to use a different
name here to make things more separated:
- moved variable declaraiotns into loop (for int a=0; ...)
- renamed uv_images to uv_image_set
- renamed index variable from i to j in inner loop that
reused same index name from outer loop
The iterator was redeclared 3 times. I fixed this to avoid future issues.
I commit separately because so the changes are less cluttered all over
the place.
The variable child was redeclared multiple times in the same function.
While this has not created any issues i still changed this to avoid
confusion and keep the usage of the variables more local.
The function validateConstraints() potentially causes a null pointer
exception. I changed this so that the function returns a failure as soon
as the validation fails. This avoids falling into the null pointer trap.
The 2 methods add_bezt() and create_bezt() do almost the same.

Don't write the multichannel metadata when there is only a single layer,

This save a little memory and copying in the kernel by storing only a 4x3
matrix instead of a 4x4 matrix. We already did this in a few places, and
those don't need to be special exceptions anymore now.
This is in preparation of making Transform affine only, and also gives us
a little extra type safety so we don't accidentally treat it as a regular
4x4 matrix.
The purpose of the previous code refactoring is to make the code more readable,
but combined with this change benchmarks also render about 2-3% faster with an
NVIDIA Titan Xp.
This leads to less lookups to the GWNShaderInterface and less uniform upload.
We still keep a legacy path so that Builtin uniforms can still work. We might restrict this path to Builtin shader only in the future.
You can now cancel your renders that are too long. This will still output the current status of the render. For example if you cancel at 50% rendering progress, you will have a render result with only half the render samples.
This also fix a bug with the probe debug display when there was more than 2 probes. ped->probe_id was equal to 0 for all planar probes until the next frame. Resulting in all planar data debug to show probe 0.

Premise: When pose bones are selected, applying a pose library should
only affect the selected bones.
This commit fixes a bug where the pose was also applied when there was
no overlap between the selected bones and the bones in the pose. For
example, applying a pose which contains only keyframes for the left
hand, while only right-hand bones are selected, would apply the pose
to the left hand anyway.
The code is now also slightly more efficient; the removed 'selcount'
counter was only used as a binary (i.e. zero or non-zero). It's now
stored as a bitflag instead.
Entering edit-mode uses all selected mesh objects.

Each AnimData block has a set of Blend/Extrapolation/Influence settings
that can be used to control how the active action is blended with the
NLA stack. However, these settings were not getting copied over to the
newly created strips (as the push-down code existed long before these
settings were added).
This commit solves this in several ways:
* Active Action Blend/Extrapolation/Influence settings now get copied
to the new strips when adding them to the NLA stack via Push Down.
Note: This doesn't happen when there are no existing NLA tracks,
as these settings don't get used in that case.
* Strip Influence will be copied across when inf < 1.0 (i.e. when a
non-default value is used), to maintain the effect. To make this work,
the influence value will get added as a keyframe to the strip's
"Influence" Control FCurve.
- See code comments for an alternative approach and why that was not chosen
- Strip Time still doesn't get keyframes added automatically yet.
* To ensure the "extrapolation mode" settings don't get always overwritten,
I've put in place a compromise: the extrapolation will only get changed
if the chosen setting will cause problmes (i.e. hold forward & back -> hold forward
if there are other tracks before it already).
Not safe for backporting to 2.79[x] stable releases.
Now repeating the operator will use the previously chosen offset, either with
the modal operator or typed in. The modal operator will still start at zero.

I keep reading that texture painting is not working yet. However it is fully
working. We even have a "Full Shading" option in the viewport display panel.
Clay/EEVEE still need their UI figured out. But the context itself is doing
its part after this patch, and at least for Cycles it's working like 2.79.
Instead of creating a new instancing shading group without attrib, we now have instancing calls. The benefits is that they can be culled.
They can be used in conjuction with the standard and generate calls but shader must support it (which is generally not the case).
We store a pointer to the actual count so that the number can be tweaked between redraw.
This will makes multi layer rendering more efficient.
Introduced explicit ID property node for driers in depsgraph,
so it is clear what is the input for driver, and what is the
output.
This also solved relations builder throwing lots of errors
due to ID property not being found.
It was too tricky to know ahead of time if an object would still
be visible in the new window/workspace/scene/layer combination,
especially since other windows may share some of these data-blocks.
So store the context, make the change, then check if the object is
still visible, freeing mode data of it's not.
It was possible to have relations like A -> B -> C -> A (import thing is
that no other operations points into this cluster) which were not detected
or reported by dependency cycle solver.
Now this is solved by ensuring we don't leave unvisited nodes behind.
This is probably a better way to handle it: instead of totally
discarding scaling of non-free axes, keep the ratio between them.
Basically the logic of the constraint is now that it rescales the
object uniformly in the non-free axis plane in order to force the
total volume change to the desired value.
Note that this code will likely be generalized,
currently each new case is a little different though
so it's too early to move them into general functions.
This (now removed code) calls gl_Vertex deprecated draws. It was doing
background drawing (color gradient, flat background) which is not used
by any engine.
It seems the reason the old version of the constraint overcompensates
as reported in T48079 is to allow the constraint to work with uniform
scaling on all axes. However the way it did that actually _requires_
uniform scaling for the constraint to work correctly, and breaks if
only the free scaling axis is used to avoid redundant channels.
This version attempts to allow both by discarding scaling in the non-
free directions instead of applying the correction on top of it.
This merges changes in internals, runtime-only of existing custom
normals code, which make sense as of themselves, and will make diff of
soc branch easier/lighter to review.
In the details, it mostly changes two things:
* Now, smooth fans (aka MLoopNorSpaceArray) can store either loop
indices, or pointers to BMLoop themselves. This makes sense since in
BMesh, it's relatively easy to get index from a BMElement, but nearly
impracticable to go the other way around.
* First change enforces another, now we cannot rely anymore on `loops`
being NULL in MLoopNorSpace to detect single-loop fans, so we instead
store that info in a new flag.
Again, these are expected to be totally non-functional changes.
around the volume.
We generate a tight mesh around the active voxels of the volume in order
to effectively skip empty space, and start volume ray marching as close
to interesting volume data as possible. See code comments for details on
how the mesh generation algorithm works.

Selection code relies on being able to set the depth functions
however passes have their own depth settings.
Add DRW_state_lock to ignore passes settings for particular flags.
This fixes occlusion queries cycling through objects under the cursor.
By default select wasn't picking the nearest object,
this could have been fixed by not clearing the depth buffer,
but calling GPU_select_(begin/end) without the binded frame-buffer
caused issues for depth-picking. So move GPU_select begin/end to a
callback.
This also has the advantage that only needs to populate the engines once
to draw two passes.
Note that cycling through objects fails with occlusion queries still,
will fix shortly.
This is very efficient and add a pretty low overhead (0.1ms of drawing time for 10K objects passing through all tests, on my i3-4100M).
The like the rest of the DRWCallState, test is "cached" until the view matrices changes.
In some cases it doesn't make sense for add-ons to be listed for hiding.
Especially for import/export which use minimal UI space.
This adds `bl_info["use_owner"]` to add-ons,
currently defaulting to True for all non Import-Export add-ons.
This is more important now that we will have tigther volume bounds that
we hit multiple times. It also avoids some noise due to RR previously
affecting these surfaces, which shouldn't have been the case and should
eventually be fixed for transparent BSDFs as well.
For non-volume scenes I found no performance impact on NVIDIA or AMD.
For volume scenes the noise decrease and fixed artifacts are worth the
little extra render time, when there is any.

Development notes
-----------------
Up until now we were still using the same depsgraph for rendering and viewport
evaluation. And we had to go out of our ways to be sure the depsgraphs were
updated.
Now we iterate over the (to be rendered) view layers and create a depsgraph to
each one, fully evaluated and call the render engines (Cycles, Eevee, ...) with
this viewlayer/depsgraph/evaluation context.
At this time we are not handling data persistency, Depsgraph is created from
scratch prior to rendering each frame. So I got rid of most of the partial
update calls we had during the render pipeline.

-Replaced integer uniform location of only view dependant builtins by DRWUniforms that are only updated once per shgroup.
Now that Eevee has support for offline rendering (F12) we can use it for

Note: This makes the duplicated UI issue one panel worse. That happens when
Cycles if your scene engine, and Eevee is your workspace engine.
Depth picking needs to read the depth buffer after drawing
since GPU_select_end runs in a different OpenGL context
reading the depth buffer wasn't working.
This caused the last object to be unelectable.
This patch adds F12 offline Freestyle rendering support to Eevee.
Most functionalities are identical with those found in Cycles.
The only major difference is that the per-view layer "use Freestyle" toggle
option is currently placed in the "Passes" panel of the "View Layers"
properties window instead of a "Layer" panel as in Cycles. Since Freestyle
is a post-processed overlay and not a pass, the present option location is
a compromise. To describe this fact, the per-layer "use Freestyle" option

This separate context allows two things:
- It allows viewports in multi-windows configuration.
- F12 render can use this context in a separate thread and do a non-blocking render.
The downside is that the context cannot be used while rendering so a request to refresh a viewport will lock the UI. This is something that will be adressed in the future.
Under the hood what does that mean:
- Not adding more mess with VAOs management in gawain.
- Doing depth only draw for operators / selection needs to be done in an offscreen buffer.
- The 3D cursor "autodis" operator is still reading the backbuffer so we need to copy the result to it.
- All FBOs needed by the drawmanager must to be created/destroyed with its context active.
- We cannot use batches created for UI in the DRW context and vice-versa. There is a clear separation of resources that enables the use of safe multi-threading.
Offscreen contexts are not attached to a window and can only be used for rendering to frambuffer objects.

Technically the original issue is that xof/yof in render result is calculated
for drawing border render. So a simpler patch could be:
```
- rr->xof = re->disprect.xmin;

```
However everywhere in the code we are getting border directly from re->disprect
which we may as well do here too.
Besides I'm taking this as a chance to get rid of RenderResult in the internal

When you were using autosmooth to generate some custom normals, and
created empty custom loop normal data, you would go back to an 'all
smooth' shading, cancelling some sharp edges generated by the mesh's
smooth threshold.
Now we will first tag such edges as sharp, such that shading remains the
same. This is not crucial in current master, but it is for clnors
editing gsoc branch!
Regression caused by earlier commits to improve the automerge behaviour.
In this case, the problems only occurred when moving a selected keyframe
forwards in time to overlap an unselected keyframe.
While it is necessary to ignore duplicates when doing Deselect/Column Select
(where double-updates may result in nothing being selected), for borderselect,
not including the duplicates meant that sometimes, nothing would happen
if you were trying to borderselect keyframes originating from hidden channels.
This was first noticed in the greasepencil-object branch, but affects all
animation channel types.
This is not an ideal solution but blender freeing system is already well tangled.
So tracking and clearing vao caches when destroying contexts does prevent bad behaviour.
This allows us to:
- Not mock around with tags stored in a global space,
and not to iterate over all datablocks in the database
to clear the tags.
- Properly deal with datablocks which might not be in main database.
While it sounds crazy, it might be handy when dealing with preview,
or some partial scene updates, such as motion paths.
- Avoids majority of places where depsgraph construction needed bmain.

A major bottleneck of current implementation is the call to create_bindings() for basically every drawcalls.
This is due to the VAO being tagged dirty when assigning a new shader to the Batch, defeating the purpose of the Batch (reuse it for drawing).
Since managing hundreds of batches in DrawManager and DrawCache seems not fun enough to me, I prefered rewritting the batches itself.
--- Batch changes ---
For this to happen I needed to change the Instancing to be part of the Batch rather than being another batch supplied at drawtime.
The Gwn_VertBuffers are copied from the batch to be instanciated and a new Gwn_VertBuffer is supplied for instancing attribs.
This mean a VAO can be generated and cached for this instancing case.
A Batch can be rendered with instancing, without instancing attribs and without the need for a new VAO using the GWN_batch_draw_range_ex with the force_instance parameter set to true.
--- Draw manager changes ---
The downside with this approach is that we must track the validity of the instanced batch (the original one). For this the only way (I could think of) is to set a callback for when the batch is getting free.
This means a bit of refactor in the DrawManager with the separation of batching and instancing Batches.
--- VAO cache ---
Each VAO is generated for a given ShaderInterface. This means we can keep it alive as long as the shader interface lives.
If a ShaderInterface is discarded, it needs to destroy every VAO associated to it. Otherwise, a new ShaderInterface with the same adress could be generated and reuse the same VAO with incorrect bindings.
The VAO cache itself is using a mix between a static array of VAO and a dynamic array if the is not enough space in the static.
Using this hybrid approach is a bit more performant than the dynamic array alone.
The array will not resize down but empty entries will be filled up again. It's unlikely we get a buffer overflow from this. Resizing could be done on next allocation if needed.
--- Results ---
Using Cached VAOs means that we are not querying each vertex attrib for each vbo for each drawcall, every redraw!
In a CPU limited test scene (10000 cubes in Clay engine) I get a reduction of CPU drawing time from ~20ms to 13ms.
The only area that is not caching VAOs is the instancing from particles (see comment DRW_shgroup_instance_batch).
This allows allocation of VAOs from different opengl contexts and thread as long as the drawing happens in the same context.
Allocation is thread safe as long as we abide by the "one opengl context per thread" rule.
We can still free from any thread and actual freeing will occur at new vao allocation or next context binding.
The other approach was causing too much error in some cases (e.g. favouring
the lower-valued keyframes). This fix should make the resulting curves less
bumpy/jagged.
This commit removes an earlier attempt at optimising the lookups
for duplicates of a particular tRetainedKeyframe once we'd already
deleted all the selected copies. The problem was that now, instead
of getting rid of the unselected keys (i.e. the basic function here),
we were only getting rid of the selected duplicates.
With this fix, unselected keyframes will now get removed (as expected)
again. However, we currently don't take their values into account
when merging keyframes, since it is assumed that we don't care so much
about their values when overriding.
that end up on the same frame
Currently, when scaling keyframes in the Dopesheet, if multiple
selected keyframes end up on the same frame post-scaling, they
would not get removed by the "Automerge" setting that normally
removes duplicates on the same frame.
This commit changes the behaviour so that when multiple selected
keyframes end up on the same frame, instead of keeping all these
around on the same frame (e.g. resulting in a column of keyframes
on different values), we will instead merge them into a single
keyframe (by averaging the values). This should result in a
smoother F-Curve with fewer "stair-steps" that need to be carefully
cleaned out afterwards.
Requested by @hjalti
This bug took a while to track down. In the test file with this report,
the Nla-Strip Control Curve for strip time would get disabled if you
changed the NLA Editor to a second Graph Editor instance.
It turns out that because this second Graph Editor would have the
"filter fcurves by name" option enabled, this would trigger a lookup
of the referenced property's name (in order to test whether it matched
the filtering criteria). However, since that filtering code was written
before the introduction of these curves, it still assumed that the names
for these Control Curves should be handled the same as for standard FCurves.
Unfortunately, that doesn't work, as the property lookups fail if the standard
method is used - when the lookups fail, the F-Curves get tagged as being
invalid/disabled (and need to be reset using the "Revive Disabled FCurves"
operator).
Note: The changes in this patch look complicated, as I've had to shuffle
a bit of code around so that the name-filtering check can have access to
the additional info it needs. In the process, I've also removed the earlier
(hacky) approach where the control curves were getting added to a temp
buffer to get changed from normal FCurves to special ANIMTYPE_NLACURVES.
Not sure why we need a relation from solver to a tip local transform, this
will be handled via parent relation.
Fixes remaining dependency cycles reported in T54083.
It is not possible to address transform at particular position of constraint
stack, and when constraint is being addressed is usually from driver variable.
This fixes some of dependency cycles reported in T54083.
We need to move the render result logic outside the render engine code.
It makes no sense for Eevee/Clay/... to have to re-implement the render resilt
creation logic. Beside the original implementation really got it wrong, by
ignoring the different render layers needed for the final render.
Finally, there is no need to re-create the logic for views. So this was also
fixed.
Note 1: This will break still if the depsgraph of the needed view layers is not
updated / created. We need to address this separately. For now if users want
to test this, just show each view layer in the viewport at least once.
Note 2: We are still getting depsgraph from scene and creating if needed.
`BKE_scene_get_depsgraph(scene, view_layer, true);` according to Sergey we need
to move the render depsgraph for the Render struct instead. I will do it
separately as well.
This is a regression in rB4f1c0a1 which only allowed cutting haior at the
second segment only, while there is nothing wrong with cutting hair at the
first segmewnt.
Don't use dm->get*Array for DM you don't own. This call can allocate temporary
CD layer, which is not thread safe at all.
Also removed hard-coded logic around CDDM check. new functions will do same
logic, but are mode DM-type-=independent.
We shouldn't mix image pool acuisition with and without user provided,
the fact that internally image.c uses last frame from Image datablock
confuses the logic.
Optionally don't remap indices for objects.
Checking all objects parent's would reference a freed pointer
while freeing all objects.
In the case of dynamic topology there is no use in keeping track
of hook/vertex-parent indices.
Also disable this when creating meshes for undo storage
since adding an undo step shouldn't be modifying other objects.
This reuses the Cycles regression test code to also work for OpenGL UI drawing.

Once 'losing lib' issue is fixed (in previous commit), we have new issue
that this could lead to several copies of the same linked data-block in
.blend file. Which is not good. At all.
So had to add a GHash-based check in libraries reading code to ensure we
only load a same ID from a same lib once.
The issue was that when a same lib was found several times in loaded
.blend, we'd only keep the first occurence. But since Blender expects
next data-blocks to belong to last found library, we could actually
be adding data-blocks assigned to copies of the duplicated lib to
another, totally unrelated lib.
Those data-blocks were then obviously not found when actually loading
libs content, and lost.
Note that this only fix one part of the issue, current code can
generate several copies of same linked data-block now, will fix in
another commit.
While the script should be using INVOKE_PREVIEW for operators in clip view,
window manager was lacking some switch statements.

This completes twist feature, which is now possible to also control by
texture. Since textures can not easily contain negative values as well,
same trick with 0.5 neutral as vertex groups is used.
All in all, this twist features allows to do following things.
Original hair:
{F2287535}
Hair with scientifically calculated twist value of 0.5:
{F2287540}
And we can also twist braids in opposite directions dependent on left/right
side:
{F2287548}
The idea is to give a control over direction of twist, and maybe amount of
twist as well. More concrete example: make braids on left and right side of
character head to be twisting opposite directions.
Now, tricky part: we need some negative values to flip direction, but weights
can not be negative. So we use same trick as displacement map and tangent normal
maps, where 0.5 is neutral, values below 0.5 are considered negative and values
above 0.5 are considered positive.
It allows to have children hair to be twisted around parent curve, which is
quite an essential feature when creating hair braids.
There are currently two controls:
- Number of turns around parent children.
- Influence curve, which allows to modify "twistness" along the strand.
This isn't supported since there are subsequent reads to all point coordinates
after modification started.
Probably we need to create a temp copy of point, but that's like extra CPU
ticks.
view_layer is NULL when the render engine is created, this gets passed
around and ends up in this code causing a crash. This should be reverted
after the render engine api is updated to set view_layer.
The conditionals in particle code are... some sort of madness... I'm not
even sure what the correct behavior should be from looking at it.
In this case the path cache generation was being skipped in edit mode.
Due to changes in draw code particles from old files that may have had a
default draw size of 0 will not be visible. Old draw code would check
for this and adjust the size, however the unit for draw size has changed
from pixels to BU, and it no longer makes sense to have such checks.
This patch is to ensure particles from such files remain visible.
It seems to be useful still in cases where the particle are distributed in
a particular order or pattern, to colorize them along with that. This isn't
really well defined, but might as well avoid breaking backwards compatibility
for now.
This removes the need of custom attribs for instancing.
Instancing works fully with dynamic batches & Gwn_VertFormat now.
This is in prevision of the VAO manager patch.
This manager allows to distribute existing batches for instancing
attributes. This reduce the number of batches creation.
Querying a batch is done with a vertex format. This format should
be static so that it's pointer never changes (because we are using
this pointer as identifier [we don't want to check the full format
that would be too slow]).
This might make the original Instance Data manager useless but it's currently used by DRW_object_engine_data_ensure().
Theses batches keeps their memory chuck allocated after transfer to be reused and updated very often.
NOTE: This commit break instancing in DRW. (it's fixed in the next commit)
Now that the new 3D viewport draws to a multisample offscreen buffer, there is
no good reason anymore to create an entire multisample window and pay the
performance/memory cost for other regions that don't need it.
GL_MULTISAMPLE now only gets enabled for offscreen buffers, so we don't need
to check for it throughout the UI code anymore.

This is like the only way to add variety to hair which is created

Maybe not ideal, but the time will show.
Burley SSS uses a bit of strange thing where the albedo and closure weight are
different, which makes the subsurface color act a bit like a subsurface radius
indirectly by the way the Burley SSS profile works.
This can't work for random walk SSS though, and it's not clear to me that this
is actually a good idea since it's really the subsurface radius that is supposed
to control this. For now I'll leave Burley SSS working the same to not break
backwards compatibility.
This can be very slow if it contains a big texture, and it's not
necessarily setup in a useful way anyway, and materials can be used
in multiple scenes.
Instead of cloning the window to create dummyHWNDs and dummyHDCs to avoid calling the SetPixelFormat more than once in the same window, use the original window and HDC and do not call the SetPixelFormat again.
In addition to avoiding a lot of unnecessary calls, it simplifies the code and makes it match the others OS
Cycles already uses 1.5 as default. BI original 1.0 filter doesn't look good for
Eevee. The ideal scenario would be for both Cycles AND Eevee to use the same DNA
setting.
But for now it is nice to at least have Eevee renders to look better by default.
Note: This handles doversion for 2.7x files only. Files previously created in
2.8 need to be manually corrected.
It is basically brute force volume scattering within the mesh, but part
of the SSS code for faster performance. The main difference with actual
volume scattering is that we assume the boundaries are diffuse and that
all lighting is coming through this boundary from outside the volume.
This gives much more accurate results for thin features and low density.
Some challenges remain however:
* Significantly more noisy than BSSRDF. Adding Dwivedi sampling may help
here, but it's unclear still how much it helps in real world cases.
* Due to this being a volumetric method, geometry like eyes or mouth can
darken the skin on the outside. We may be able to reduce this effect,
or users can compensate for it by reducing the scattering radius in
such areas.
* Sharp corners are quite bright. This matches actual volume rendering
and results in some other renderers, but maybe not so much real world
objects.

Looks like there was no way to avoid that so far, since
WM_event_add_timer_notifier can set mere int-in-pointer there, this can
cause issues. So added mere flags system to wmTimer to allow
controlling this.
Instead of calling an operator I just call `collection.new()`. Moving the
code into a separate function also simplifies it. In its new form there is
also no undefined behaviour when me.vertex_colors is non-empty but without
active layer.
We were not passing a scene collection parent to the BKE_collection_add
function, which in turn made syncing not work.
Right now we:
* Explicitly pass the master collection in this case
* Fallback to the master collection in other cases

Suggested by Pablo Vazquez (venomgfx).
The idea here is that it should be easy to work in the outliner by picking a
bunch of objects and adding them to a new collection.
Where is the new collection? In the same level as the "outliner active" object.
Note, since the outliner has no pure concept of an active object, I'm using
the highlight tag for this. Hopefully it works fine.
It should work in "Collections", "View Layer", and "Groups".
Only when collections are not filtered out.
The reason it appeared working was due to left-over debug code to force
time dependency.
Real fix seems to include force tagging objects used by duplication,
similar to what we do for some other modifiers already.
When destination IDProp did not exist, new code (related ot static

IDProps and RNA are really not easy to tame, thinking more and more we

But for now, this bandage should to the trick.

make the specific purpose of this alignment clear, it's not required for

Cycles old behaviour is to hide the duplicator on rendering at all times.
We have since a few months an option in 2.8 to control the duplicator
visibility on its own. However when the duplicator is also duplicated, things
were not working properly.
What we do now is, in addition to the duplicator visibility control, is to not
have the source collection of the duplicator object to ever influence its
visibility when the object is been duplicated.
So if the user wants to reproduce Cycles old behaviour all that is required is
to have different collections, one for the original to-be duplicated objects
that you hide in for the view layer used in the final render. And another
collection with only the first duplicator (which in turn duplicates other
duplicators).
I know this all may sound confusing, so please just give it a try, it's simpler
than it sounds.

Was happening when viewport visibility on the particle system is disabled.
This became an issue after c45afcf, but the actual issue goes a bit deeper
and the following aspects were involved:
- Relations builder for particle system was ignoring particle system if
it's visibility is not enabled for viewport. This is something what
shouldn't have been done -- depsgraph relations are supposed to be the
same no matter if it's viewport or render.
- Relation builder was only dealing with duplication set to object, but
was ignoring group duplication.
This is technically a regression in 2.79a-RC as well, so would need to

This is rather a workaround to avoid main thread freeing all glyph caches
at the same time as sequencer uses fonts to draw text sequences.
Ideally we need to either make cache more local, or user-counted or to make
somewhat more global locks. All this ends up in a bigger refactor which is
better for 2.8. For the meantime let's make Blender more stable with a tiny
workaround.
Downside is that keeping zooming things up and down in interface during render
will increase memory usage by unused glyph caches. It's not too bad though,
all unused caches will be freed first time at area zoom after render.
Thanks Bastien for review!
Behavior is expected to be simillar to 'make proxy' on linked groups, it
basically allows you to select which object in the group will be to
'root' override (usually, the armature), checks which other objects
needs to be overridden as well, overrides the group itself too, and
instantiates the group and the root overridden object.
It seems to be working, though handling of armature deformation is kind
of totally broken in blender2.8 currently (modifiers...). ;)
At some point, we could probably think about removing IRIS file format

I was calling the ntree syncing function too late. So the index of the layer

Since 30a966a726 when I removed the recursion, the code was still relying

Big thanks to Sergey Sharybin for spotting the issue.
The issue was introduced by eb016eb as a fix for T41258, which added depsgraph
tagging with zero flag. The comment was saying that it's to make derived caches
to be updated, however bot sure how that could possibly work: tagging ID for
update with 0 flag only sets updated tags in bmain in old dependency graph.
In the new depsgraph, where object data is a part of depsgraph, doing such a
tag forces object to be updated, which re-triggers viewport rendering, which
is causing such an infinite viewport render rest.
Can not reproduce any crashes here, so maybe it's fine to move on with this
change.
This was leading to so much recursion that it was failing here.
How to test it: Open wanderer.blend and try to render (F12).
Note: This won't fix F12 rendering for wanderer with Eevee. Something else is
going wrong there.
For simplicity we choose to execute the rendering of Opengl engines in the main thread and block the interface.
This might be addressed in the future at least for video rendering.
A drawmanager wrapper (DRW_render_to_image) is called by the render pipeline to set up the Opengl state and then call the specific draw_engine->render_to_image function.
General idea of the fix: skip the whole draw manager callback madness which
was used to tag object's engine specific data as dirty. Use generic recalc
flag in ObjectEngineData structure instead. This gives us the following
benefits;
- Sovles mentioned bug report.
- Avoids whole interface lookup for opened viewports for EVERY changed ID.
- Fixes missing updates when viewport is temporarily invisible.

This code was disable a while back and got re-enabled by some previous debug
process. Having relation names in dot file helps understanding what's going

This does not affect current blender2.8, but is mandatory for asset

Bottom line being, we also need to 'survey' changes in actual
SpaceFileBrowser struct, not only its FileSelectParams sub-struct.
Generic ED_area_do_msg_notify_tag_refresh callback only tags area for
refresh, not redraw. This was not updating view e.g. when changing
ordering options in top region, until you'd mouse-over main filelisting
region...
So now, always tag area for redraw in filbrowser's refresh callback.
When pressing on a button to zoom for eg,
using zoom-to-mouse-position doesn't make any sense.
There is also zoom speed scaling which increases the closer the cursor
is to the top-edge of the screen, which was noticable since the
navigation widget is currently at the top of the screen.
The new depsgraph was only considering the active action
when attaching relations from the AnimData component/operation
to the properties that are affected by the animation data.
As a result, only properties animated by the active action
were working, while those animated by NLA strips did not change
when playing back/scrubbing the timeline.
This commit fixes this introducing a recursive method to properly
visit all NLA strips, and calling DepsRelBuilder::build_animdata_curves_targets()
on each of those strips.

Technically this was not a bug, as this functionality was not meant to
work. (Drivers were already handled though, as they are part of the rig)
It was assumed that there was little value in having this functionality
available, as in most pipelines, animation production only begins after
the rig has been locked down (see bug report comments for more details).
On reflection, in most common situations, there's probably no harm in
doing these rna path fixups. This commit takes advantage of some similar
code I recently put in place in the Grease Pencil branch (for joining GP
objects and their layers).
Important Note for Animators/Riggers/TD's:
Please be aware that after joining armatures, some of the animation may
still need to be redone (due to changes in the transform hierarchies/
transform spaces that the animation is applied in). We do not attempt
to correct for these problems, and it is unlikely that we will in future.
The "Apply Pose as Rest Pose" operator now affects Bendy Bone settings
too, making it possible to use interactive posing tools (e.g. Pose Sculpting

When such posing tools are available, this change makes it easier to get
the desired Bendy Bone shapes, as you are no longer restricted to using
buttons to get the desired effects.

See https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Source/Modeling/Bevel
in the "Consistent Widths for Even Bevels" for derivation of
the new algorithm.
There was a check for volume bounces at every surface intersection. That could lead to a volume scattered path being terminated
when passing through a transparent surface. This check was superfluous, as the volume shader evaluation already checks the
number of volume bounces and once it passes the max, volume shaders will not return scatter events any more.

In my tests the previous loop was running in 200 ms. With this change it now runs in 17 ms.
The difference in the end is still not great because the `draw_uvs_lineloop_bmface` function is called for each face and has an ImmBegin and ImmEnd in the function itself
Previously we stored each color channel in a single closure, which was
convenient for sampling a closure and channel together. But this doesn't
work so well for algorithms where we want to render multiple color
channels together.
FFMPEG uses int for the numerator, while Blender uses a short. So in
cases people gave weird exotic framerate values and we cannot reduce
enough the numerator, we'd get totally weird values (even negative frame
rates sometimes!)
Now we add checks for short overflow and approximate as best as possible
in that case (error should not matter unless you have shots of at least
several hundreds of hours ;) ).
In the future we may have siblings to collections (like overrides) that are not
collections. This change make sure tooltips will keep working.
Note: This was originally wrongly committed together with a Collada fix,
re-committing separately now. See bd7060a87f.
I really would prefer if we were to use the dropbox API for this.
That said, we now have some tooltips that work.
I'm using the new draw callback draw API for outliner tooltips.

This reverts commit dc2617130b, which disabled
writing of previews for undo. While this uses some memory, re-rendering all
previews is very expensive, especially if for example you have lots of materials
using high-res image textures.
As done by c42fc19a8a - this was needed originally because notifiers were
not working so I had to force tagging.
And for the records, I should have used DEG_TAG_BASE_FLAGS_UPDATE instead of 0.
This is not the issue actually mentioned there. However it is the most serious
one.
Now if the object being dragged was not in a collection linked in the viewlayer
or invisible, we add it to the active collection (or create one if necessary).
This is related to T50967, which is now fully fixed.
We can't have more than one NOTE_SUBTYPE in the same notifier.
This is a partial revert of: cd4d5dcb46. In particular to the part concerning
"Also fixed a missing notifier of the object instancing operator".
Not only this was mixed with the original reason for the commit for no reason,
but it actually introduced a bug. Bad, bad developers ;)
Note: Although this commit is not needed for master, blender2.8 requires it for
the forementioned bug report.
Only do special handling of ob->data pointer in case we are remapping to
a valid (non-NULL) other obdata. Otherwise, handle it as any other
'remapping to NULL' case.
Hopefully not breaking anything else...
Move timer and tip out of button code,
now the only requests a tooltip,
passing a creation callback to run.
Needed for manipulators in 2.8,
also helps de-duplicate logic - since we never want
multiple tool-tips showing at once.
The issue was caused by Cycles allocating ID property in a temporary object
which gets overwritten and thrown away every so often.
Now dependency graph will try to reliably check whether ID properties from
a temp object are to be freed.
The issue here is that we can not duplicate the whole datablock since we
use view layer pointers in depsgraph callbacks.
Maybe this whole chunk of code belongs to somewhere else, or maybe we
can find a smart solution to avoid need of CoW pointers passed to the
evaluation functions.
This fixes lack of viewport update when toggling collection enabled flag.
This is similar to idproperty_reset() defined in layer.c, but it does not
re-alloc property itself.
We should replace idproperty_reset() with IDP_Reset() now.
Make sure scene and view_layer set for depsgraph before running editors
update. This is required since tagging might happen before we created depsgraph.
The issue was caused by some incompatibility of new API which expects ID block
to be specified explicitly, while old code is tagging object's data using
object's ID with OB_RECALC_DATA flag.
We need to switch all areas to give proper ID and everything, but for until
then we'd better stop crashing.
Compared to usual cddm one, ccgdm one was not applying the
ob->derivedDeform deformation to the pbvh generated from the
original mesh geometry, when possible.
We can only support painting from subsurf DM in a limited subset of
cases, others (like multiple subsurf, or topology-modyfying ones,
break mapping to original geometry).
This is not the most ideal fix (ideally, we should always be able to get
a mapping to original geometry from any point in modifiers stack...).
We do not always have that one available, and even without the
isDisabled callback this func is helpful.
Note that this is a bot stupid, only modifier actually needing a valid
Scene pointer here is subsurf... :|
It is possible to have animation (or driver) to modify nested datablock, such
as shape key value for example (where animation is on Mesh level, but shape key
is it's own datablock). To deal with such cases we need to create relation
from nested datablock CoW to animaiton/driver operation.
`gpu_texture_try_alloc` invalidates zero-sized textures.
The message in the console is not correct in this case (because it is not due to lack of memory).
Note this comes from the greasepencil-object branch, and are merged to help
preventing future merge conflicts.
Also, I renamed the icons for consistency sake. So when this is merged in 2.8
other areas of the code will need to change.

Previously only scalar displacement along the normal was supported,
now displacement can go in any direction. For backwards compatibility,
a Displacement node will be automatically inserted in existing files.
This will make it possible to support vector displacement maps in the
future. It's already possible to use them to some extent, but requires
a manual shader node setup. For tangent space maps the right tangent
may also not be available yet, depends on the map.

This was we can introduce other types of BVH, for example, wider ones, without
causing too much mess around boolean flags.
Thoughs:
- Ideally device info should probably return bitflag of what BVH types it

It is possible to implement based on simple logic in device/ and mesh.cpp,
rest of the changes will stay the same.
- Not happy with workarounds in util_debug and duplicated enum in kernel.
Maybe enbum should be stores in kernel, but then it's kind of weird to include
kernel types from utils. Soudns some cyclkic dependency.

This was originally a good idea. However we will need to pay special attention
to this when doing the dynamic overrides anyways. The placeholders won't be
enough to spare us that job.
That said I left the ones on layer.c because we are actually calling these
BKE_override_*_add() functions from doversion, yet they don't do anything.
This was fixed in master with commit 9d873fc3de. However, this fix never made it to 2.8.

This optimisation only works if no material in the scene require the AO pass.
For this either set the AO distance to 0 or both Cavity and Edges factors to 0.
This double the performance of scenes with very high triangle count.
This is an optimization / cleanup commit.
The use of a global ubo remove lots of uniform lookups and only transfert data when needed.
Lots of renaming for more consistent codestyle.
This would lead to sock.default_value pointing to the wrong data type,
possibly causing crashes. Unfortunately, this bug will still exist for
older Blender versions that try to load newer files, which makes
changing the type of a node socket problematic.
This was introduced to the outliner when we had no User Preference
window back in 2.5x. Right now it makes no sense to keep this around.
But how about addon user preferences:
* They belong in the user preference window under the addon.
How about the user preferences themselves:
* You find them in the user preference window.
And templates?
* Why are they here in the first place?
After talking to Pablo Vazquez (who in turn poked Sergey Sharybin) we found
it reasonable to get rid of this. If it turns out that we were wrong we
revert this.
As for leaving this exposed as a debug option (as suggested on IRC) I would say
no, please. This end up polluting the code and never cleaned up in the end.
(this was specific talking about templates).
Technical note: I left the functions in outliner still hanging around.
While I used UNUSED_FUNCTION for one of them, for the other one I had to use:
`#if 0` because the function was calling itself, which would fail to build if
I used UNUSED_FUNCTION.
Debug flags are to be controlling render behavior, nothing to do with low level
system utilities.
it was simple to hack, but logically is wrong. Lets do things where they are
supposed to be done!
We have different ways of explore the scene objects, namely View Layer and
Collections. This change let us focus on compositing elements only such as:
* View Layers
** Collections
** Render Passes
* Freestyle
* Grease Pencil?
Not included in this commit is an option to handle filtering of
collections passes, ... Not sure if we would like, though.
Since they are all properly nested under a "Collections" / "Passes"
parent.
User notes:
The outliner so far was a great system to handle the object oriented workflow
we had in Blender prior to 2.8. However with the introduction of collections
the bloated ammount of data we were exposed at a given time was eventually
getting on the way of fully utilizing the outliner to manage collections and
their objects.
We hope that with this filtering system the user can put together the outliner
with whichever options he or she seem fit for a given task.
Features:
* Collection filter: In case users are only focused on objects.
* Object filter: Allow users to focus on collections only.
* (Object) content filter: Modifiers, mesh, contrainst, materials, ...
* (Object) children filter: Hide object children [1].
* Object State (visible, active, selected).
* Compact header: hide search options under a search toggle.
* Preserve scrolling position before/after filtering [2].
[1] - Note we still need to be able to tell if a children of an object is in a
collection, or if the parent object is the only one in the collection.
This in fact was one of the first motivations for this patch. But it is to
be addressed separately now that we can at least hide children away.
[2] - We look at the top-most collection in the outliner, and try to find it again
after the filtering and make sure it is in the same position as before.
This works nice now. But to work REALLY, REALLY nice we need to also store
the previous filter options to be sure the element we try to keep on top
was valid for both old and new filters. I would rather do this later though
since this smell a lot like feature creeping ;)
Remove no longer needed display options:
* Current Scene (replaced by View Layer/Collections)
* Visible (replaced by filter)
* Selected (same)
* Active (same)
* Same Type (same-ish)
How about All Scenes? I have a patch that will come next to replace the current
behaviour and focus only on compositing. So basically stop showing the objects
and show only view layers, their passes and collections, besides freestyle.
Also, while at this I'm also reorganizing the menu to keep View Layer and
Collections on top.
Developer notes:
* Unlike the per-object filtering, for collections we need to filter at tree
creation time, to prevent duplication of objects in the outliner.

Both object level and camera datablock properties animation did not work with
copy on write enabled.
The root of the issue is going to the fact, that all interface elements are
referencing original datablock. For example, View3D has pointer to camera it's
using, and all areas which does access v3d->camera should in fact query for
the evaluated version of that camera, within the current context.
Annoying part of this change is that we now need to pass depsgraph in lots
of places. Which is rather annoying.
Alternative would be to cache evaluated camera in viewport itself, but then
it makes it annoying to keep things in sync.
Not sure if there is nicer solution here.

The displacement shared was running before particle data was copied to the
device causing bad memory access when the particle info node was used. Fix
is simply to move particle update before mesh update so the data is
available to displacement shaders.
(Altho this fixes the crash the particle info node is still mostly useless
with displacement for now...)
Drawing hair weights read before the hair array start.
This code could be improved since it currently copy-pastes,
from do_particle_interpolation, but this would need larger changes.
For now just correct existing logic.
Sun is treated as a unit distant disk like in cycles.
Opti: Since computing the diffuse contribution via LTC is the same as not using the Linear Transformation, we can bypass most of the LTC code.
This replaces the sphere analytical diffuse computation as it gives a more pleasing result very close to cycles' AND cheaper.
Lights power have been retweaked to be coherent with cycles (except sun lamp with large radius where cycles has a non-uniform light distribution).
This is an improvement on the old spining quad method that was giving artifacts when the reflection ray was nearly aligned with the sphere center.
This might be a bit heavier but it's worth it.
This operator not only links a collection, but it creates a new one and then it
links it. Although the preferrable method for users to handle their collections
is when viewing the "Collections", let's explore this workflow for now.
Suggested by Pablo Vazquez, thank you.
Headers should not have operators as much as possible. The exception here is
for datablocks mode when you want to see the active keyset.
Edit menus on the other hand should be clearly distinct from the RMB context
menus. Edit menu options should be only the ones that apply to the entire
outliner, regardless of the selected element.
Context (rmb) menus should be related to the element you RMB on to invoke the
menu. I'm also taking this opportunity to start bringing the context menus
to Python. There is little reason not to, and it helps editing them (In this
case I'm doing it only for the Scene Collection one).

One thing i'm not fully happy with is all this is_same_* functions. Need to
get rid of this by probably adding explicit entry/init/whatever nodes and
maybe making node criteria aware of whether key will be used as "from" or
as "to" node.
This leads to a ~3ms improvement of CPU time during drawing.
This prevent the rendering from being stalled waiting for the texture data to be transfered.
This is because certain part of the engine may require a blank framebuffer to bind textures to.
This is the case when using only array textures, unsupported by DRW_framebuffer_init().
By adding the ANIMFILTER_NODUPLIS flag to the filter it'll only be
processing each F-Curve once, which means we can remove while iterating.
This also solves a potential issue when a datablock has a driver and is
shared among multiple objects.
The issue was happening because dependency graph did not inform particle
settings as modified. This is a regression caused by tagging and flushing
mechanism refactor.
The real fix would be to make particle settings to use ID level recalc flags
rather than own flags, which will also simplify relations around particle system,
and particle settings evaluation.
Reported by Mai in IRC.
Now hashed alpha materials are stable when moving the camera/not using TAA.
It also converge to a noise free image when using TAA. No more numerical imprecision.
There still can be situations with multiple overlapping transparent surfaces that can lead to residual noise.
Using GL_RG16I texture for the hit coordinates increase tremendously the precision of the hit.
The sign of the integer is used to 2 flags (has_hit and is_planar).
We do not store the depth and retrieve it from the depth buffer (increasing bandwith by +8bit/px).
The PDF is stored into another GL_R16F texture.
We remove the raycount for simplicity and to reduce compilation time (less branching in refraction shader).
Instead of creating non temp textures only at framebuffer creation, we create them and bind them if their pointer is NULL.
This should simplify the framebuffers creation code.
Now when you make an override of a linked armature, code will
automatically also override objects using that armature (deformed by, or
children of), trying to replicate make_proxy results.
Also some initial code to replicate 'make_proxy' in case of instantiated
linked groups, but that is not working yet (and will also require some
work in RNA part of group's objects collection anyway).
This simplifies remapping task, since you don't have to ensure your
overrides are created in the correct dependency order.
Uses famous LIB_TAG_DOIT to mark IDs to be overridden.
An index stored in Alembic wasn't used. Often this index is a no-op
(i.e. index[n] = n), in which case the result was fine. However, when it
isn't, it caused issues.
Before we were re-using newid pointer inside of ID structure where we were
storing pointer to an original datablock.
It seems there is no way we can avoid requirement of having pointer to an
original datablock, so let's stop obusing system which was only designed to
be a runtime only thingie. Will be more safe this way, without need to worry
about using any API which modifies newid.
There was a fake cyclic dependency happening when node of node tree is driving
another node of the same tree.
This is related to T53794, but more fixes is needed here.

Bug introduced on: 1f5106de61
How to reproduce it:
* Change Outliner from Active View Layer to Collections
* Create a new collection under Master Collection (Collection 2)
* Move all three objects from Collection 1 to Collection 2
* Move all three objects from Collection 2 to Collection 1
Bug introduced on fb4cd136a7 (multi-object drag-and-drop).
How to reproduce the bug:
* Create a new collection
* Move the Cube to the new collection
* Move the Camera to the new collection (Cube disappears)
* Move the Lamp to the new collection (Camera disappears)
Explanation of the bug:
The moved object was still selected, so we were trying to add the object to the
collection were the object was already inserted (which would fail silently) and
then remove it.
The reason for the crash is still a bit confusing, but on Windows with Intel HD Graphics 4000 it always happens when you enable `Use Nodes` or when you try to connect the Pricipled Shader node to the output without the `Subsurface Scattering` and `Subsurface Translucency` options enabled.
This patch fixes a 32-bit overflow that occurs on 64-bit systems due to a numeric literal being treated as 32-bit.
This patch allows for the generation of images that occupy more than 4GB of RAM, which previously caused a crash.

The offscreen dicing scale helps to significantly reduce memory usage,

Was due to the fact that the instances don't have a "static" obmat that can be referenced to use as a uniform.
Solution : precompute the full matrix for each bone and pass it as instance data. (theses are copied into a buffer and can be discarded right away)
Note: this could be optimized further and make only one drawcall (shgroup) to draw all bone instance of one type (vs. one call per armature).
Remove the critical OMP sections used to protect mem allocation.
First one can be done in a separate loop before main, parallelized one.
Second one only affect 'private' data, so we only need to ensure

This is committed as separated step to ease troubleshooting in case
bisecting becomes necesary.
Tests on my system with ~1200 objects with 128 shadow casting lamps (current max) show a significant perf improvment (cache timing : 22ms -> 9ms)
With a baseline with no shadow casting light at 6ms this give a reduction of the overhead from 16ms to 3ms.
This remove pretty much all allocations during the cache phase. Leading to a big improvement for scene with a large number of lights & shadowcasters.
The lamps storage has been replace by a union to remove the need to free/allocate everyframe (also reducing memory fragmentation).
We replaced the linked list system used to track shadow casters by a huge bitflag.
We gather the lights shadows bounds as well as the shadow casters AABB during the cache populate phase and put them in big arrays cache friendly.
Then in the cache finish phase, it's easier to iterate over the lamps shadow SphereBounds and test for intersection.
We use a double buffer system for the shadow casters arrays to detect deleted shadow casters.
Unfortunatly, it seems that deleting an object trigger an update for all other objects (thus tagging most shadow casting lamps to update), defeating the purpose of this tracking.
This needs further investigation.
Gives about 40% speedup of object which has simple-ish deformation applied
on top of subdivided mesh.
This might easily happen with single character animation.
Helps in cases of not very complex scenes and lots of system threads available.
A bit hard to measure change on it's own, it works best with the upcoming
changes and gives measurable improvements.
Mutex is now local to particular CCGDM, and guarding edge hash which is only
used by a single function only. There is no need to acquire read lock after

Unfortunately, we cannot perform set/unset checks on 'resolved'

placeholders)... IDProps in RNA are rather challenging topic. :|

With factory settings, steps to reproduce were:
* Select "Collection 1" (in "RenderLayer")

It might crash at this point, although maybe this crash is ASAN only.
However, this was also doing some weird things that I've corrected now. It
called outliner_build_tree in an operator callback. This should only be

Instead, we manually cleanup the tree to keep it valid.
This is quite common to have 64GB memory now, and even 128. There is no reason

The idea is to support following: allow doing parallel for on a small range,
each iteration of which takes lots of compute power, but limit such range to
a subset of threads.
For example, on a machine with 44 threads we can occupy 4 threads to handle
range of 64 elements, 16 elements per thread, where each block of 16 elements
is very complex to compute.
The idea should be to use this setting instead of global use_threading flag,
which is only based on size of array. Proper use of the new flag will improve
threadability.
This commit only contains internal task scheduler changes, this setting is not

Now all the fine-tuning is happening using parallel range settings structure,
which avoid passing long lists of arguments, allows extend fine-tuning further,
avoid having lots of various functions which basically does the same thing.

This modify the selection code quite a bit but it's for the better.
When using selection we use the same batching / instancing process but we draw each element at a time using a an offset to the first element we want to draw and by drawing only one element.
This result much less memory allocation and better draw time.
This is a special memory manager that keeps memory blocks ready to send as vbo data.
Since we loose which memory block was used each DRWShadingGroup we need to redistribute them in the same order/size to avoid to realloc each frame.
This is why DRWInstanceDatas are sorted in a list for each different data size.
This a small cleanup of something which I think is just a typo anyway.
With all the recent talks of harrassment and groping, I think we better avoid
that within our source code! :)

(which is ok since the function doesn't require a real ID).
I couldn't reproduce the original issue tackled by the forementioned commit so
I'm going ahead and bringing drag and drop back for scene collections.
Note: We already pass the ID for view layer collections as well since we brought
collections into groups.
This is a partial revert of 1f5106de61.
First and firemost, for groups I was checking the wrong flag
(soops->flag & SO_GROUPS) instead of (soops->outlinevis == SO_GROUPS).
Second, the columns were entirely broken for things like Orphan Data.
Third, I tried to have different columns for different `outlinevis`, but we have
bones with only visible and select, modifiers with visible and render, render
passes with enable and another value ... I would rather stay away from this mess
at the moment, and stick to the more obvious bug fix.
Finally, there is a bug (not addressed here) where the whole line is selected,
regardless of the restriction column area. It should be fixed separately.
Result is less noisy ogl renders.
What this patch does:
- the draw loops gets accumulated into the output buffer.
- disable TXAA persmat jittering in ogl render since ogl render already does that.
- make noise texture update correct accross all draw loops. Previously it was reset between each FSAA samples.
- Hashed Alpha materials were outputing their alpha values even if the final pixel has no blending and thus no transparency.
- Opacity was not clamped when using "add closure" nodes.
We need to remove all transform to display during rendering for this to work. The float rect is then color managed when displayed.
This makes all interface colors wrongly displayed because they should be color managed when rendering.
This fixes any function that relied on these iterators such as:
* Outliner Same Type
* Metaballs
* scene.objects
We were not considering the collections when there was collections nested
to the collections nested to the master collection.
It includes a unittest.
Adding new context modes requires adding a string in CTX_data_mode_string,
but there is no error when omitting this other than panels using
incorrect contexts. The static assert should help detect simple
missing strings at least to avoid confusing errors.
In that case it can now fall back to CPU memory, at the cost of reduced
performance. For scenes that fit in GPU memory, this commit should not
cause any noticeable slowdowns.
We don't use all physical system RAM, since that can cause OS instability.
We leave at least half of system RAM or 4GB to other software, whichever
is smaller.
For image textures in host memory, performance was maybe 20-30% slower
in our tests (although this is highly hardware and scene dependent). Once
other type of data doesn't fit on the GPU, performance can be e.g. 10x
slower, and at that point it's probably better to just render on the CPU.

This fixes renaming the view layer via Python.
This bug was introduced originally in 3a95bdfc65. Although I suspect it was
around for longer, since this commit didn't touch this part of the code.
But basically we need the id of the RNA property to be the one that owns
the data (view layer).
This fixes renaming via the interface.
This bug was introduced originally in 9515737b55. We need the id of the RNA
property to be the one that owns the data (view layer).
So it can't be the window's id, but the scene one instead.
We were bumping user count when duplicating viewlayer and its freestyleconfig
depending on the flag, however when freeing we were always decreasing user
count.
This fixes this and get rid of the assert when running:
`--factory-startup --enable-copy-on-write`
And closing Blender.
SVM nodes need to read all data to get the right offset for the following node.
This is quite weak, a more generic solution would be good in the future.
The mental model is that a scene collection is a small wrap on top of the master
collection, so all objects are in the master collection at all times.
When we remove a collection there is no reason to remove an object. So if the
object was not linked to any other collection, we add link it to the master one.
We tried to do as much as possible in a single threaded callback, which
lead to using some nasty tricks like fake atomic-based spinlocks to
perform some operations (like float addition, which has no atomic
intrinsics).
While OK with 'standard' low number of working threads (8-16), because
collision were rather rare and implied memory barrier not *that* much
overhead, this performed poorly with more powerful systems reaching the
100 of threads and beyond (like workstations or render farm hardware).
There, both memory barrier overhead and more frequent collisions would
have significant impact on performances.
This was addressed by splitting further the process, we now have three
loops, one over polys, loops and vertices, and we added an intermediate
storage for weighted loop normals. This allows to avoid completely any
atomic operation in body of threaded loops, which should fix scalability
issues. This costs us slightly higher temp memory usage (something like
50Mb per million of polygons on average), but looks like acceptable
tradeoff.
Further more, tests showed that we could gain an additional ~7% of speed
in computing normals of heavy meshes, by also parallelizing the last two
loops (might be 1 or 2% on overall mesh update at best...).
Note that further tweaking in this code should be possible once Sergey
adds the 'minimum batch size' option to threaded foreach API, since very
light loops like the one on loops (mere v3 addition) require much bigger
batches than heavier code (like the one on polys) to keep optimal
performances.
So they are:
House
-> House 1
-> House 2
-> ...
The exception is when the parent collection is the master collection. In this case we get:
Master Collection
-> Collection 1
-> Collection 2
-> ...
This is part of "T53495: View layer and collection editing - Design Task"
This is a bit annoying to have per-DM locking, but it's way better (as in, up to
4 times better) for playback speed when having lots of subsurf objects,
The idea is to avoid any threading overhead when we start pushing tasks in a
loop. Similarly to how we do it from the new dependency graph. Gives couple of
percent of speedup here, but also improves scalability.
I could done a subversion bump, but I found a safe way to avoid it.
It leads a bit of an ugly code, but once we bump the subversion
next time we can clean it up easily.
This allows a duplicator (as known as dupli parent) to be in a visible
collection so its duplicated objects are visible, however while being
invisible for the final render.
An object that is a particle emitter is also considered a duplicator.

This statistics is only collected when debug_value is different from 0.
Stored in depsgraph node itself, so we can always have access to average data
and other stats which requires persistent storage. This way we also don't waste
time trying to find stats from a separately stored hash map.
I had to make Eevee draw its scene in the scene pass (before it was doing it
in the background pass). This is not ideal since reference images require
a separation between scene and background.
But it's the best way to solve it now. Clay is working fine.
This is something deliver form node type, there is no reason to try cache it
anywhere, especially since it's not used in any performance critical code.
Lighter weight dependency graph is what we want.

Annoyingly, need to convert vfont to nurbs, do minmax and toss nurbs away.
This is likely to be fine, since this function is not intended to be used

However, it's not very clear what to do with font on curve.
This fixes rendering of font object with auto texture space in Cycles
introduced in c34f3c7.
It is probably possible to introduce new mode to vfont_to_curve which

We can not store pointers to elements of collection property in the
case we modify that collection. This is like storing pointers to
elements of array before calling realloc().
There is still a crash that you get because the draw manager needs to
handle duplis differently.
But the initial assert caused by this particular file is now fixed.
The goal is: have id->recalc flags set to components which got changed.
To make it possible for render engines to check on a more granular basis
what changed in the object. For example, is it a transform which changed
or is it just some ID property changed which has nothing to do with rendering.
The tricky part is: we don't want duplicated logic in tagging and flushing.
In order to avoid this duplication, we store ID recalc flag in the component
node type information. That type information could easily be accessed by both
tagging and flushing routines.
Remaining part of the changes are related on changing the way how tagging
works. The new idea here is to have utility function which maps update tag to
a component. This way we can easily set ID recalc flags right away. Without
any duplication of ID recalc flags set in multiple flag handler functions.
With all this being said, there should be no user measurable difference for
now, it's a gigantic basement for some upcoming work and fixes.
The issue actually goes a bit deeper, converting curve to mesh will
change texture space just because font and bezier curves are using CV
to calculate texture space.
So now when those objects are converted to mesh, we disable auto
texture space and copy evaluated space over.
Original fix was assuming that particle init operation is updated on every
frame, which is wrong behavior and that was fixed in previous commit to the
original bugfix.
- Highlight's were too intense/distracting
use more subtle alpha (consistent with the rest of our UI).
- Don't fill center cube (only draw edges).
- Draw widget while interacting since this is helpful in some cases.
Thanks to @jbakker for suggestions.
Also change axis hotspots so the nearest is always selected
for quicker axis picking (relies on dragging any axis to orbit).
Makes the 3D view navigation widget easier to use: dragging anywhere
in the rotation region now rotates without having to avoid the XYZ axis
hotspots which only activate on a single click.
Logic for drag detection is complicated by manipulators reliance
on keeping the modal operator running.
Currently this is wrapped in an ifdef,
we may want to implement it differently later.
A comparison should have not just have been against an epsilon,
but relative to the edge length involved.
Thanks to mano-wii for patch on which this is based.
The idea is to de-duplicate logic in DEG_id_tag_update() and flushing where we
need to translate depsgraph tag or component type to ID level recalc flag.
Currently unused, but is required for Blender 2.8.
Not only this helps merges form master to the branch, but also:
- Allows us to production-check changes as soon as possible.
- Avoids some unnecessary editors update about ID changes.
- Adds small optimization on queue size by always keeping one of the pointers
outside of the queue.
The idea is to allow iterating over ID nodes in exact order of their
construction, and in order which will not change dependent on memory
pointers or anything.
Now we stick to a single button, when data is directly linked, clicking
on it will make a local copy, while shift-clicking on it will make a
static override.
When data is a static override, icon is the DATA_OVERRIDE one, and clicking
on the button will make it a fully borring local data-block.
This is just the 'linked' icon with top-down arrow instead of left-right
one, if any graphist feels more inspired... ;)
Note that this is 'new inkscape' version of the svg file, hope
everything is alright (it does change all icons whe re-exporting :/ ).
Code also handling auto-generation of static overrides.
Aside from some naming consistency cleanup, this commit:
* Is the first step addressing the 'operator' issue with static
overrides, by implementing a first version of the 'restore from
reference' behavior.
* Fixes several issues that were discovered on the way in enhanced
RNA comparision code, like the 'zero-length dynamic array' case, or some
infinite looping caused by some non-ID pointers (that for some
mysterious reasons did not show up previously...).
* Factorizes a bit said RNA comparison code (auto-static override
generation and comparison/check were essentially doing the same thing).
This flag means that the pointer does not 'own' the data it references.
This is the case of nearly all ID RNA pointers (NodeTrees will probably
again be some nasty exception here :( ), but also several other cases.
That kind of information is mandatory for complex processing over whole
data-blocks done in RNA, like some static override tasks (advanced
comparison...).
We need to tag groups before and after rendering, so the group collections
viewport and render visibility are taken into account.
Note: This is a workaround, that will be removed once the render engine have
its own depsgraph, instead of re-using the viewport depsgraph.
Users can change the group collection visibility in the outliner
when looking at groups.
Regular collections on the other hand don't have any special visibility control,
if you need a collection to be invisible during render, either don't link it
into the view layer used for F12, or disable it.
This includes:
* Updated unittests - update your lib/tests/layers folder.
* Subversion bump - branches be aware of that.
Note:
Although we are using eval_ctx to determine the visibility of a group collection
when rendering, the depsgraph is still using the same depsgraph for the viewport
and the render engine, so at the moment the render visibility is ignored.
Following next is a workaround for this separately to tag the groups before and
after rendering to tackle that.
Currently this is a no-visible-changes change, but the idea is to use this
dedicated flag to tell which exact components of ID changed, make it more
granular than just OBJECT and OBJECT_DATA. Allow setting this field based
on what components new dependency graph flushed on evaluation.
Currently unused, but this is where LIB_TAG_ID_RECALC* flags will go.
Also modified other DNA to make pointer property being followed by pointer.
Makes it easier to keep track of alignment and extend nested structures without
ruining anything.
The possible issue with just listing arguments is that it might not be clear
what particular value is used for. For example, is it a scene itself, or is
it a parent scene?
Not as if it's not very clear now, but better be explicit for the future,
and me reading code in 10 years.
Outliner was using the old selection flag to show selected objects.
So if you selected an object in the outliner it would keep "selected"
(drawn in yellow) even after you selected another object.
New dependency graph is supposed to have relation from animation node to
the node which corresponds to a property which is modified by that curve.
This means it is up to dependency graph to flush recalc flags, and no
manual control is needed in the animation code.
This is a part of ongoing work in Blender 2.8, where we need to replace
`object->id.tag & LIB_TAG_ID_RECALC_DATA`
with
`object->data->id.tag & LIB_TAG_ID_RECALC`

Bug introduced on rB9f5bf197a0c3.
The offset for selection of vertices (`bm_vertoffs`) starts where the offset o edges ends (`bm_wireoffs`).
However, the `bm_wireoffs` depends on the offset of face selection (`bm_solidoffs`).
Before the commit that introduced the bug, the drawn of edges (in backbuff) was always computed along with the `bm_wireoffs`:
```
bm_wireoffs = bm_solidoffs + em->bm->totedge;
```
Now that the edges are not always drawn in backbuff, `bm_wireoffs` has to start from `bm_solidoffs`.
It is still based on generic collection evaluation, but the idea is to avoid
having view_layer pointer passed from group to it's evaluation function.
This is essential for copy-on-write, where we need to pass view_layer pointer
from a copied datablock, but that copy is not yet available at construction
time. Also, this is NOT the case where we want to expand datablock at a
construction time, just to keep our life easier.
View Layer was not duplicated between destination and source.
This would lead to a crash if you duplicated the group and assigned
the new group to any object.
Our own implementation was behaving different comparing to OSL and GPU,
namely on the border pixels OSL and CUDA was doing interpolation with
black, but we were clamping coordinate.
This partially fixes issue reported in T53452.
Similar change should also be done for 3D interpolation perhaps, but this
is to be investigated separately.
This only applies to ID being copied outside of bmain. Handy for cases when it
is important to check if the copy corresponds to a data block coming from
library.
Example of that is proxy evaluation with copy on write.
Thanks Bastien for review!
This should solve crash on files having proxies, but there will still be
assert failure because proxy_from is expected to come from library, which
is no longer truth for objects which got copied.
Before that it was up to lots of other places to keep track on whether
something is to be dependent on time or not. Was annoying, and unreliable,
and fragile.
This commit avoids hacks in object builder. Other areas will be adopted
soon.
This is something what should be supported by the new dependency graph.
Fixed by making it so, build_animation() adds relation between Animation
component and whatever-is-being-animated. In fact, for now, only relations to
ID properties are added. Rest of the relations are kind of hacked in all over
the code and needs to be removed and verified with specific .blend files.
We can't use a single component here, sine it might consist of multiple
operations. So, for example, having driver operation will confuse targets
of another driver.
Fill-selection would only go upward in list of items to find an already
selected one and fill-select all items in-between. Now, in case upward
search fails, it will also intent to go downward, effectiviely allowing
to 'fill-select' from bottom to top.
Note that top-to-bottom keeps priority (i.e. if a top-to-bottom
fill-selection is possible, it will always happen, even if a
bottom-to-top one is also possible).
* For the T48988 fix (i.e. separate Ease In/Out properties for Bendy Bones
in Edit vs Pose modes), old animation data needed to be patched to use
the new property names. This is needed to partially fix some of the
issues in T53356 (though the Rigify code itself still needs to be patched).
* For the T52009 fix, old files needed to have the frame_start and frame_end
properties on the FModifier (base-class) updated to match that of the
FMod_Stepped type-specific class. This wasn't done in the earlier commit
since it wasn't worth going through all animation data just for the sake
of updating these relatively-rare settings, but since we're doing it anyway
now, it makes sense to include this here.
Patch from Richard Erhardt, with some additions & modifications.
Changes bevel profile shape parameter so that can get arbitrarily
near square profile as parameter -> 1.
Adds code to make profile=0 case work, at least for cube corners,
so changed hard min of profile parameter to 0 from 0.15.
Currently shouldn't make any difference, but this is something what needs to be
done to sanitize drivers relations )with the idea to re-use some generic code
to get operations for driver variables.
Those are unused, and not clear whether we will ever support this.
Seems to be better having more like "component" tags, would be less magic
involved to guess what exactly is to be tagged.
One or two are OK, but more make it rather unreadable, and future work
is likely to require more toggle specific behavior here. So switched to
bitflags, switching from short to int and using 16 upper bits for
'internal' ones defined in BLO_readfile.h, combined with 'public' ones
from user interaction, defined in DNA_space_types.h
Updated collection_delete_exec() so we don't try to delete elements as we search
the outliner tree anymore.
Now we search the whole tree first for the selected nodes that need to be
deleted and delete them afterward.

This augment the existing irradiance grid with a new visibility precomputation.
We store a small shadowmap for each grid sample so that light does not leak through walls and such.
The visibility parameter are similar to the one used by the Variance Shadow Map for point lights.
Technical details:
We store the visibility in the same texture (array) as the irradiance itself (in order to reduce the number of sampler).
But the irradiance and the visibility are not the same data so we must encode them in order to use the same texture format.
We use RGBA8 normalized texture and encode irradiance as RGBE (shared exponent).
Using RGBE encoding instead of R11_G11_B10 may lead to some lighting changes, but quality seems to be nearly the same in my test cases.
Using full RGBA16/32F maybe a future option but that will require much more memory and reduce the perf significantly.
Visibility moments (VSM) are encoded as 16bits fixed point precision using a special range. This seems to retain enough precision for the needs.
Also interpolation does not seems to be big problem (even though it's incorrect).
Before this patch, if one of the grid was updated (moved) only the subsequents evaluated grids had their level reset and had all their bounces recomputed.
Tests were broken since e8c15e0ed1.
We now get view_layer from window, not workspace, since the same workspace can
have a different view_layer depending on the window scene.
We do not assume subversion bump until we actually change the subversion.
For example, a branch may have bumped its subversion to 3, yet still require
the new doversion code introduced on 108c4bd502.
This way we can inform editors about all edits at once. Currently this is not
used, but in the next commits we will inform editors about what exactly has
changed.
We are using NC_SCENE | ND_LAYER_CONTENT for the shader, however this does not work for groups
unless we manually handle the notifiers.
Otherwise the group id is passed, and the listener never gets the notification since a scene id
is expected, or no id at all.
Allow users to edit either the object group active collection or view layer one
We can't support users selecting the group collections from the outliner group
because that would be imply having an active group for the scene or workspace.
But the way it is now allows to see and edit the collection values after the
group is instanced.
You could still create groups as before, with Ctl + G. This will create a group
with a single visible collection.
However you can also create a group from an existing collection. Just go to
the menu you get in the outliner when clicking in a collection and pick
"Create Group".
Remember to instance the group afterwards, or link it into a new scene or file.
The group and the collection are not kept in sync afterwards. You need to manually
edit the group for further changes.
Since we are ditching layers from Blender (2.8) we need a replacement to
control groups visibility. This commit introduces collections as the building
blocks for groups, allowing users to control visibility as well as overrides
for groups.
Features
========
* Groups now have collections
This way you can change the visibility of a collection inside a group, and add
overrides which are part of the group and are prioritized over other overrides.
* Outliner
Groups can inspect their collections, change visibility, and add/remove members.
To change an override of a group collection, you need to select an instance of
the group, and then you can choose "group" in the collection properties editor
to edit this group active collection instead of the view layer one.
* Dupli groups overrides
We can now have multiple instances of the same group with an original "override"
and different overrides depending on the collection the instanced object is part
of.
Technical
=========
* Layers
We use the same api for groups and scene as much as possible.

Instead of storing a single active view-layer in the workspace, one is
stored for each scene the workspace showed before.
With this, some things become possible:
* Multiple windows in the same workspace but showing different scenes.
* Toggling back and forth scene keeps same active view-layer for each scene.
* Activating workspace which didn't show current scene before, the current view-layer is kept.
A necessary evil for this is that accessing view-layer and object mode
from .py can't be done via workspace directly anymore. It has to be done
through the window, so RNA can use the correct scene.
So instead of `workspace.view_layer`, it's `window.view_layer` now (same
with mode) even though it's still workspace data.
Fixes T53432.
It makes more sense to stick to DEG_iterator_object order in name, since we can
have functions to iterate over different entities and we want all of them to
have common prefix.
The idea of this flag was to prevent snapping onto an object which depends on
currently modifying ones. Using single flag makes more sense here, and also
makes it possible to replace some ob->recalc based magic with depsgraph query
to set those flags.
It looks stupid to first force some flag being set and then have workaround
to ignore that flag in snapping code. Let's just not set the flag in the first
place.
The only useful situation where such snapping was usable is to move roots of
disconnected hair, which still works just fine. However, there might be some
other hidden corner case where this workaround was needed.
We should keep base_flags after CoW object datablock was updated. Not entirely
happy with current solution, but it fixes crash and allows us to run tests
again.
More proper solution would be to make CoW operation a per-component thingie,
which will only update corresponding parts.
Previously, the NLM kernels would be launched once per offset with one thread per pixel.
However, with the smaller tile sizes that are now feasible, there wasn't enough work to fully occupy GPUs which results in a significant slowdown.
Therefore, the kernels are now launched in a single call that handles all offsets at once.
This has two downsides: Memory accesses to accumulating buffers are now atomic, and more importantly, the temporary memory now has to be allocated for every shift at once, increasing the required memory.
On the other hand, of course, the smaller tiles significantly reduce the size of the memory.
The main bottleneck right now is the construction of the transformation - there is nothing to be parallelized there, one thread per pixel is the maximum.
I tried to parallelize the SVD implementation by storing the matrix in shared memory and launching one block per pixel, but that wasn't really going anywhere.
To make the new code somewhat readable, the handling of rectangular regions was cleaned up a bit and commented, it should be easier to understand what's going on now.
Also, some variables have been renamed to make the difference between buffer width and stride more apparent, in addition to some general style cleanup.
For some blend modes there would be no effect with factor 1.0, even if factor
0.999 would give a very different image. Now the result should have no
discontinuity.
